Anyway this custom model ends up being shared? It’s amazing!

Maybe in the future I will release these files. It is not a model here. It is a set of custom and original models lego builded together in Noggit. The archway for the hangar is custom along with the catwalks.

Love this one!

I totally love the atmosphere in this zone.

So it uses: 
RGB Blendmap(Combined Alphamaps)
4 tileset textures and 4 of those textures with alpha (_h ones)
And I have a control of all I needed: Texture scale, Texture HeightScale and HeightOffset
If someone knows how to make vec4 in blender pls tell me cause right now I'm using groups of groups of groups of nodes with just floats(even RGB math is done via separating it to R  G and B.

Message me on Discord, I will help with the code. That looks pretty interesting.

I definitely like the overall texture choice here. However. this little town lacks a bit of detail to it. I think you need to add some details like benches, fences, banners, flower pots, maybe a little dirt spots on the ground.

Must be enough, Blizzard use similar things to get this effect, so looks proper. By the way, you could use special materials to be displayed in Noggit and not displayed in game. It is a simple hack because Noggit does not handle all the flags

Looks good but in my opinion the horizon mountains look kind of weird because of the same elevation level. Kinda looks like an unloaded area or something. 

Unlikely, your spawning is quite lightweight now.

Turns out pretty good actually. I wonder how it is going to look like ingame in the end.

Pretty neat dark atmosphere. Reminds me of Darkshore a lot. Good work, as usual.

Not a bad idea. I can't take reponsibility of organizing one at the moment though as I am quite busy with studies and other things lately. You can try yourself. Sticky, pinned and awards are on me.

Everyone is doing dota maps  What's the hype?

What is it? Looks very sharp.

I am talking about the mountains on the border.

More elevation levels? Somewhere higher, somewhere lower?

Is the map going to be surrounded by flat raised terrain or it is just temporary?

If you need (and you probably do) to block the map borders I suggest you going with some proper wow styled mountains that will just blok the path, yet we will look much more appealing from the ground rather than a flat raised terrain.

In Photoshop, using alphamaps such tasks and even more is very easy and fast.

Yeah, I gave it to him for testing.  Basically first thing produced by your tool, Koward

You can probably do this shaping in Mudbox or software like that which allows more complicated work with terrain specific brushes. Since we managed to get direct 3D data import from OBJ, no quality will get lost. Now we don't need tools like FractalWoW to port things.

First experience of using the tool?

Speaking about texture layers... I used to have a version of FractalWoW that was able to work with usual adt template. Also would be nice if you could make a tutorial on how to make those heightmaps and stuff, full process except alphamaps. And, yeah, looks pretty good.

That's so cool that you use my and Basto's models

Yeah, pretty much. But was it really? I hope some generator.

Thanks. Looks truly amazing.

Hey, that's really atmospheric. What fog model is that, if you remember?

I love the grass colour here. Brings memories of some cinematic from Warcraft III. Why is resolution of the pictures is so small, btw?
