That looks really cool Macubex. Some ideas for obstacles i guess would be asteroids, spaceships etc.

Haha, doesn't Macubex already have both of those in his maps? :P

haha those were the only two things i could think of. :P
What do you homies think about this

Hmm... I think it's a bit too bland Feld.
Maybe you could try detailing it a bit? Maybe getting some inspiration from the Rudra castles?

nickad, that's pretty much exactly what the Rudras castles looks like. It's similar to the mansion at the beginning of Sion's story (or was it the Riza's story... I think Sion's, because I remember Foxy and the whole chasing-the-grail bit--and since Riza got along well with Dune, that... eh, it doesn't matter!).
You missed the bottom for a pillar, also the backdrop or w/e the gray bricks seem to be, are messing up my perspective. Other than that, it's pretty pro.
Honestly, Feld, I like your map. What they say is correct about the pillar, but overall, I think that's a very pretty map.

I wish I had mapping abilities... I lack mapping skills.
Me likes that map a lot Feld, except for what ppl commented and some towers feeling a bit ramdom :P Overall, impressive castle/fortress.


A quick in-game map I made for Hero's Realm. This is a screenshot from the game. The little red dot with white outline is your current location.


I made two new icons, each larger. Which is better, the left or the right?
Kentona: I like the one on the left, it'll be easily visible even when traversing the snowy white areas. On a side note that is one pimp World Map! (I see Italy complete with Sicily. >_> )
Left as well, btw, neat map indeed :)

Having a signature is too mainstream. I'm not part of your system!

I really love that chipset and you used it very well. I can see how the emptiness at the bottom could be a problem but since the castle is the main focus of the screenshot, you don't need it that much. Unless you can actually walk down to that direction I wouldn't consider it important.

I prefer the dot on the right because it is INSTANTLY NOTICABLE. Also, it will show up against the snow because 2k3RTP snow is off-white, not white.

If you wanted to be REALLY COOL, kentona, you could have the dot on the map be the head of Akira/Holdana/Fengshuimonkdude/Zeffie (yeah I can't remember the spelling, sorry), depending on who's leading the party.

Another way to coolitize the icon would be to have it zoom as you load the map; from totally transparent and 2x zoom to normal. That would it would be like HEY I AM RIGHT YOU... basically, I really hate not being able to find icons on a map.
Ha! Those are cool ideas Craze. I'll try the severed head idea first.

EDIT:

I'm a mapping machine today:



This is from the Ghostship. It is wandering around the seas of the realm, it's undead captain searching endlessly for his lost love.

Does it have a ghostly mast as well :)?
I also think that it could be a little darker. If it's a ghost ship, then it should be a little darker and more ruined? Just my opinion on it.
