[January Mapping Contest entry] Sandopolis!

Post by jSoftApps »

Here's the page for my sandbox contest entry (because Kid_Matthew requested it :D )

It takes place in the small town called Sandopolis.

Basic Storyline:
You <insert name here> are traveling the ancient world and you find the city Sandopolis. You see some of the buildings around a magnificent castle are broken into piles of rubble. You begin to talk to the townspeople as you learn more about what's happened to the town...

Looks fantastic! I'm super curious though, how did you blend the stone with the grass in the first picture?

And this is in your map.cfg or your texture.cfg? I'm assuming map, but I would like to make sure ;)

1. want this.
2. I'd say use curves, your pics look kinda blocky (e.g. town wall)
3. what's picture 3 of? kind of bland looking.

you're welcome.

on another side note...

Sandopolis!? Really? You couldn't think of anything more original? That's basically just like Sandbox-opolis. Sandbox city? (a polis is an ancient Greek city, if I recall)
