Gold Coast Exterior: Q6-7 + P6-7 + O6-7 [Praedator] [Anvil]

[Scamp]

Southern Gold Coast style. Look at the concept for inspiration.

To see the location of the claim, use this map.

Reserved for Wolli.

Claim includes the city of Anvil. This forum has plenty of information regarding the city concept.

[Scamp]

Unlocking. (kinda)

[Wollibeebee]

haven't i already done Q8?

[Scamp]

Fixed.

[Wollibeebee]

The water in each cell has not yet been worked on, nor any man made locations like the forts.

The other 4 claims contain Anvil, and will be revealed later.

Looks good, I especially like those bridges.

Make sure that road looks like a road from up close rather than a hill with a road texture on it!

Question, why is O7 so much lower than the rest of the height map?

I wanted it lower for a few reasons, mostly to have a lake in the South GC, but the view looking up is really cool. The surrounding cells will most likely be farm and region transitions too, so it gives us a few more opportunities for changing stuff.

Thanks Scamp, and I think i've got the road just right. Although it does look really awkward in that picture... It's actually very flat.

Because the height map is too high in general. Terrain needs to be lowered.

I wasn't judging the road by your picture, just making sure you don't forget about it.

Still a lot of detailing to go, but the layout is perfect and everything is coming together nicely.

[Tarius]

No no no, that building is in the way of the street.

[SamirA]

I like the little garden.

That, was not the right screenshot...

Which is itself now outdated by three hours worth of detailing.


(Scamp, no wonder the screenshot from yesterday looked the same, it was the same. I guess that's what happens when you name everything so poorly.)

The one I've posted above is useless and old. It's whilst I was talking to Muspila, Scamp and Luxray about what I should place there.

Now that is very nice.

Lol I knew, I was joking about the "search for the difference" thing.

[Wollibeebee]

Just updated. Everything looks like it is working. Yippie. Anvil commences.

[Wollibeebee]

Alright, we still don't have a ?Reman? Stone mesh or mesh place holder, so can I just finish the claim without it, and then we add one later on at some point? (or never)

[SamirA]

Yes, I would like to have them in, but in the end they are far from necessary items. I'm sure we will get some at some point though.

[Wollibeebee]

Temporarily dropping this.

Not because I want to (although I'm pretty bored if it. , I've been working on it nearly all year, and we only just finished making the models for it, minus the few little fixes still needed and the entire temple, haha).

I retain my claim on the rich and poor district, particularly the poor. But if someone else wants to work on the castle (I sure as hell don't) and the naval and temple district, go for it. The dock area can only really be worked on after the rest are, for the sake of the layout.

I can't imagine even Scamp would like to finish the water parts of the claim. I can do them too, later.

Once exams are over, and I'm done with high school, I'll finish the poor/rich districts. I'm mainly doing this so things don't stagnate, and also if people can see the claim then they can work on things it needs (like the last two market stalls, stopping me from taking nice MGE shots - and don't take any MGE shots of the rich/poor area and post them please, I'd like to do that myself.)

[SamirA]

All sound reasoning Wolli. Good luck with exams.

EDIT: I just gave it a quick look over and I must say I like where it is going. The areas you have detailed look great and the layout looks good even in the rough areas. I like your incorporation of ruins as well as the ruined fort bits along the coast outside the city. My favorite little area is the outdoor patio with several tables at what I must assume will eventually be an eatery or tavern. It is the little things like that which make a place come to life.
