too much randomness, spammed, autoborder, read some tutorials please :D
 
Nice, some pics got as Prest says to much randomness but otherwise nice done ^^
 
Some parts makes no sense.

well ofc, my mapping is a disgrace compared to your grass tufts and open fields of nothing.

it's houses, and some shots of a few quest areas, what doesn't make sense?

6 groundtypes in 1 pic, and not even talking about the roofs.

Vaka, I'm going to say my thoughts. I've only looked at a couple pieces of your mapping, and I have to say that they make no sense whatsoever. You have like 4 different grounds of 3 different elements put together, I would consider ONLY mapping in raw, do not do ANYTHING with autoborder. You have somewhat of a potential, so.. Try some more.

i would put the time into it and not autoborder, but most of my maps have a deadline they have to be done, and autoborder does wonders if you want to save time

The differance between what you posted and what Vaka posted is that Neon's piece there is just a random field on the map, while Vaka is showing houses/ quest areas..

Like in the screenshot you're making fun of, yes, he has alot of different types of ground.. but it's suppose to be a hide out made in a old swamp.. so they had to clear most of the swamp area, to make a path, and made the houses out of whatever they could find.


And I've used vakas maps before, he has plenty of normal areas like the one you showed.. but I don't think anyone would make a thread to showcase a regular normal field.

Agree with this.. autoborder sucks :( But like he said.. time restraints :(

I actually love the "nature fields of nothing". It's really great thing! What would we do without trees and bushes?
And I think it's a little too big mixture of the grounds, otherwise it's fine.
