Very very nice eyecandy, with the nice sunset sky and the fog. For what type of game is it?

p.s i think this forum is both ger and english, so it should be free; Even JCL is german

Hi maybenew!

Something complete different...

In the most levels (and also in yours) there is a lack of reality.
The vegetation is randomly seeded by a maschine or an evenly spread.
In nature vegetation has simple "algorithms". E.g.: Most kind of trees and bushes build groups (some not!).
Bushes prefer to grow on a shielded place (side of buildings/groups/big stones).
Some trees need much water (lake/river). There mostly are many of the same type.
Grass grow higher on places the sun has more time.

Just watch the nature and ask yourselfe "why there are not trees?" or "why there are that much trees/bushes?".
Built up your vegetations (and all other) the way the nature does and your levels look automaticaly much more realistic/familiar...

A lot to desingers spend much more time in shaders than in adapting the beautiful known...

ps: the trees are too big in relation to the environment

to say it simple, the grass does not look good,
it looks very generic and artificial.

the grass is acceptable, a bit upright, but okay. i'd care more about the trees. the "stretched" look has already been pointed out, i wanna add that they have no real structure. it looks like they consist of a stick with a green cotton dabber <wattebausch>. maybe you need to cut out some leave layers. another thing: trees, like rocks, only take effect in groups. single leaf trees will always look generic. place them in small groups of different sized trees, small woods.

the worst thing are the sizes. trees are larger than the houses, electricity towers are smaller than a small tree and so on. sizes are horrible in those pictures. and the angles they were shot in are not that special either, but thats not the topic here. the bridge is okay, but it needs pillars on the ends. looks better. make seperate models for the pillas so you can loop the bridge...

agreed, the sizing is really strange, will give it a another look, the colors as well.
but cannot change much, time is short...
