Anyone want to do terrain for my TD?

i just hit holidays, so i got all day to work on stuff like this now, expect insane progress.

Ok, first shots of the center area. Going with the abandoned temple feeling there are shots of a Spawn Area, Overhead shot of the middle, Path leading to the portals (end goal) and over the top of the portals.

how are you soposed to play with so many big things in the way? no offence

ok heres one part of it i finished...i want to keep it somewhat simple...thus the player can see it easily :D

EDIT: is there a doddad limit? i think i my have gone overboard with them o_O

heavy doodads are only located around the spawn points and other areas where you cant build, i made the spawn points off limits because otherwise area effect towers are overpowered and you get spawn camping, a nasty problem in many TD's

And merc, u realise that area where u put so many doodads your suppost to be able to build on... Or is it a maze TD where you build inside the monsters path?

oh i see thats true and also a good ideah :>

Its a maze, merc had the right idea about pathing. I would have to limit you guys to around 7500 doodads, just to make it playable. Anything more is just too many. Phoenix, looks good so far, the things are kind of big.... but I'm sure it will look wonderful when you are finished. Merc, that looks good too, I like the style differences between the two. Keep up the good work. After the two of you are done I will post a poll and whoever wins popular vote will have their map on Bnet.

sounds good to me :>

ah ok, if its a maze then that opens up tons of stuff i can do.

UPDATE: well ive finished 3 swamps so far.....i have a lot more too do :\ sorry......this might take me a while bcuz i recently got a project i have to comple...and i dont know how long ill be working that.....hopefully ill be able to finish soon :>

btw if u want to see what i have done so far check out the "poisoned swamp" thread were i posted some screens


BTW: do u think i can have global fog? the whole time?......it looks very good and give it a dark spooky feeling to it...

I am going to post the poll this saturday, so if you map isn't done, well then you get to enter an unfinished one.

uh-oh, i guess i better hurry up.

lol............wait me too ^_^

ok, i'm finished, i turned each raised area into a "Temple" of a different kind, 6 diff temples:
Temple of the Waves
Temple of the Jungle
Temple of the Flame
Temple of the Guardians
Temple of the Evil
Temple of the Crystal

where do i post the screenshots (and the map) it also has "Living Terrain" there are some warriors in the middle 2 Temples; Evil and Crystal, that fire shots at each other, changing targets every 30 seconds.

I'm giving you all till 12:00 pm forum time tomorrow. Please have you map in on this thread. I will then make a poll thread and add your maps in my first introductory post. Then both of you will make your posts afterwards and add screenshots. I will leave the poll open for 1 week, at which time I will close and put the finishing touches on my new awsome beta. Thanks for you help :D .
