I attached screen shot.

Now comments.
You really have messed up the treetop light effects.
Instead of using treetop NPC graphics use the tiles you have to create the trees.
Everything seems a little to straight too. Try making it seem more organic.

6.75/10

Ya, the transparent treetops are cute, but where are they coming from. The seats are placed well, but again, it's cute with the trans. treetops over it, but realistic?

Also, in this game, people don't mind wetting there clothes, since it doesn't cause the flu. The bridge isn't helping much, since you can spend the same amount of time crossing through water. ((IMO: Bridges over water that can be crossed easily, seems like more trouble to fit through.))

The bushes around the table looks good.

Looks like it'd be a good encampment level.

Each person has their own taste.
Thus the difference in ratings.

Some people like 2k1 style levels and hate classic stylee levels but some people like classic style levels and hate 2k1 style.

All about personal opinion.

Because it's sheer laziness, and it's laggy, and it makes the level look ugly when you use it like this person did!

The treetop graphic can be good somethings.
Just in this case he's used it for the very wrong reason.

treetop gfx is good when you wanna make like edging go under the tree or something. Also something i didn't say before...LESS STRAIGHTNESS ON THE GRASS-SHALLOW WATER TILES!! change directiosn on it alot, it will take it from looking terrible ****ish to pretty 1337.
