Need ALOT more work. At the moment those arent even classed as maps.

Look at existing maps and see where you have gone wrong.

they just dont look realistic imo. try to put things where they shld be, make thing look like they naturally belong there.

 

[Elijah]

hey he may of not made it right good but for his first map it has given me a good idea

use it for sorta a half way rom, u enter in one entrance, then u can go either 3 ways on a path to ultimateness or somet like that.
sorta a half way place between 2 places or somet i dunno, but i cud easily fit it somewhere, just make it beta and i think itll be fine the size it is

 

[Shard]

Hmm, as Farril said, maps are better when they look natural. Also you need to add Attribute points, as when someone walks towards the outside of the map, it will appear black and untidy.

 

[Ragnar]

Those are actually pretty good for a starter, although you are making a BIG mistake in every map. You have to think about the black edges. When you reach the edge of the map, you will see blackness ingame wich isn't good.

 

[Elijah]

yea i think you have a bit of a problem with that seeing as its a small map right?

as you cant really put tree's der or you'll just make the map so small theres no point at all

(Talking about his first on the first post)

oh and the bigger map you did a province with tree's and that, just put more tree's there to stop anyone get near the egde,

 

[Bon]

not bad considerin its ur 1st try, just keep workin on em and make em bit bigger with more detail

 

[2fast2furious]

Make sure people can't get near the edge because if they do they'll see black. When you make maps consider tiles and objects carefully and make sure they match and fit together well.

Keep trying you'll get the hang of it soon

[CraiG^]

Try cliffs they are quite hard to do but very good at the edge

 

[SkyDragon]
