Re: new map generator
 

The color scheme is still too bright IMO. I'd suggest you to check out the colors used in the maps you find beatiful, and start from there. Even if that doesn't work with your current sprites, I'd quess it's easier to make new sprites that fit a color scheme than to come up with a good-looking color scheme that works with the current sprites.

Re: new map generator
 

Color scheme has always been a problem. You want the map to look good, but in game play it ends up getting in the way of the icons. I spent alof of time messing with the dommap colors.

Re: new map generator
 

well i whipped up a few sprites to use for the swamps, not sure that i like them though, thought that i'd run it past you guys to see what you think about them

Re: new map generator
 

here's a wrapping map with the new swamp sprites. also forgot to mention that i tweaked the water color a bit to be darker.

Re: new map generator
 

Perhaps plains could be a bit greener? The colors are already better, though.

The swamp sprites aren't very good at making me think of a swamp, but it's hard to make icons for them. I can't think of anything better.

Re: new map generator
 

yeah, i dont like them much either, but they are mainly just there as placeholders, took me less than 2 minutes to draw them. in the end that doesn't really matter since sprites are intended to be user moddable, which i s the feature that i am working on now.

Re: new map generator
 

i nearly have the sction which allows for user defined sprites finished, there is an odd bug somewhere i haven't nailed down yet somewhere, but it's getting close.

Re: new map generator
 

sprites are now moddable. i've fooled around with some sprites for the plains, and i rather like the result. i'm attaching a screen here and i will be updating my site shortly.

Re: new map generator
 

here's one more for the road, with improved swamp sprites. good night world

Re: new map generator
 

It looks good altho abit tall (they are taller than the mountains next to them). But the design and color does give me the feel of swamp
