Ares de Borg's Terrain Pack II: Preview Thread

[aaglo]

With the risk of these comments becoming sooo booring, I'll add to the chorus: The beaches look terrific

But is there any chance of removing the sand beaches from some tiles, since all the coasts don't have sandy beach (or is it just present in the grassland terrain?)

I wish i could use your graphics today! They are fantastic!

Yes, there will be some cliffs as well.

@all: Thanks for all the kind words.

Ares,

is there an "ETA" for your fine work?

 

[Goldflash]

Lets hope never. Becasue when Ares Relases it I'm going to have to download it replace sn00py's terrain withit, play afew game, gawk in awe.. and frankly, I'm just too lazy to do it all. Far too much effort when I could just sit here on the forums all day yelling at people for bumping dead threads.

At the moment things have slowed down a bit - RL got me. I'm still working on my projects but I can't exactly say when TP2 will hit the server. I think "less speed - more quality" is better than the other way around.

[Ares de Borg]

Still WIP, but here are fresh screenies! Please tell me what you think!

 

[Stormrage]

Stormrage play! ...Want! ... water and coast! Like it!.. Yes!

.....

 

[BadKharma]

That looks great!

 

[Storm Grunt]

Looking good Ares! And what stormrage said too....

 

[mrtn]

Yeah, I have to agree with Stormrage here.

 

[azzaman333]

Those graphics are 10 times better than Civ 4 graphics!

 

[BadKharma]

Any idea on a release date I cant wait to use these.

 

[Goldflash]

Can we see some more preview of the swamps?

I like swamps.

 

[Plotinus]

It looks damn fine.

Actually, personally I think I prefer the look of the coast you previewed on the previous page, with the lighter water along the beach merging more gradually into the deeper water (giving it a slightly hazy look), rather than the more clearly defined "wave" look you've got going here. But this is just a small preference, as they are both really, really good. This is by far the best sea terrain I've seen for this game, truly exceptional.

 

[Rambuchan]

Yes, this is progressing very well indeed. I actually really liked the wavey spray effect on the coasts, as per post # 131. And the forests are looking good too. Just posting to let you know that I'm standing by, ready to plant it all into the next scen that comes out of the Rambuchan stables.
