waitumus 10 Posted November 20, 2014 Hi there, I thought i would make a post on this forum to show a terrain that i am currently developing called "Manalo". Manalo is 3 fictional islands set in an Arctic region with various types of terrain, forests, mountains and open plains. This is the first addon i have attempted and as such I am still learning as I go along, but I am trying to make decent progress. The terrain is 18km x 18km (was going to be 20kmx20km but had issues). I will try and post frequent updates to this thread with developments on new towns, models textures etc. I hope you all like it and any feedback you give is greatly appreciated!

badluckburt 78 Posted November 20, 2014 Awesome, another winter map! If you don't mind me asking, what were the issues with the 20x20km version? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
waitumus 10 Posted November 20, 2014 Thanks guys, the problem was that the map ingame was bugged, and i thought if i reduced the size of the map it would fix this, (saw this in a post). It didn't work however and by the time i tested it i already had objects placed so i just left it :L Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
badluckburt 78 Posted November 20, 2014 Did the map textures do weird things when you got too high up in the air or zoomed out too much on the 2D map? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Polygon 11 Posted November 30, 2014 Pretty neat, but IMO the map lacks a little more detail. Looks too scarce. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

heavygunner 179 Posted November 30, 2014 I think in order to not look to scarce, we are in need for snowed grass. At the moment it looks like a painted bottom instead of snowed. :) And this winterscript: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
waitumus 10 Posted November 30, 2014 Yes I am trying to get my own trees and vegetation with snow on them into my map but am having quite a few issues, but hopefully soon there will be more :) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
