The level is an orgy of tile errors. The building part going up the cliff needs to have a stacked look like a staircase to give it the apperance of elevation rather than just bam going straight across to something that is supposed to be higher up. The only thing really good about this level so far is the house aside from the part that is on the cliff.

Yah, I had poles going up to make it look elevated but I can't find anything that looks good.

Well since you said you're new I'll go more indepth. The clashes with itself really bad. It's a large variety of different tiles that dont blend well. I recommend going with a color scheme of light or dark not a mixture of both. Maybe all red or all gray or all blue or light blue etc...

Cliffs lots of tile errors here which you say is because you dont know where the tiles are. Easiest solutions to these are look at the tutorials at the top of the forums or use pull out predefined objects to get the tiles off of the predefined cliff piece then delete the left overs after you have the piece. (tutorials is easier)

The shore is to straight. I recommend making the dirt move in and out the shore line more wavy and or maybe making the shallow water get close to the shore and move out etc.. (If you dont understand let me know and I'll try to give a better explenation)

Be sure to use all the sand tiles. There is a total of 5 3 sand types and 2 rocks. Don't go crazy with the rocks.

Grass detailing needs work but you already commented on that in first post.

For House over the cliffs try this, put a pole make it go down 1 or 2 tiles then get another pole farther to the right and make it go down farther than the first one. So it will give the apperance of the poles being shorter as they get higher up the cliff and need less length.

line example.

but that would require putting the whole part on the lower part on stilts to make the perspective right.

The best way to do is make it staircase like going up the cliff.

see what I mean? If not I can make an example once I get home but cant right now since I dont have graal on this comp.

Your not even telling him why to delete it.

He'll just make a new level and repeat the same mistakes.

There are so many tile errors that it isn't even needed to mention then.
Bricks at Mountain = X.x
Your stairs =x.x;;
Your house=;.;
Clearing Situation: d00d.

I deleted the level and kept the houses. I worked on cliffs for about an hour so I hope i've got them right. I'll post it later on.

draygin 09-30-2003 06:52 PM

I wouldnt have deleted it, its a good level to learn from as long as you make improvments on it. The other guy is just an idiot and should be ignored.
