Why do you have so many Red Squares? It's only one in real life...

BTW, what operating system is that?

Change the sides - ddo not make themgeometrical.
also = lots of gems or ore = bad

i like the red squares (like mini-bunkers)but if it detracts from the map
i wont use it so much in the future
and the same for ore but how much is too much?
the OS its XP

its just the placement of things that really drags this down,the river in itself is alright. shorelings are too square..

but everything else seems like you lumped it in there with hardly any thought. Just try to make things more interesting by making it more asymmetrical..

and btw use the lifeguard tower. it will fit in better.

its ok for a first i think. could be a lot better though.

my comment based off of pics cause i dont have the time to dl it right now:
-some areas of the water look a wii bit blocky
-that is a lot of gems. my suggestion is maybe 1/2 -1/4 of that amount of gems inbetween the players like that then place in more areas where ore is and is reproduced. spread those areas through out the map though of course.
-if that thin brown lines are cliffs around what im guessing are the player start location then they looks a little blocky too. make them a little less straight.
-in the pic the grass LAT has some errors. simple to fix though just select the grass LAT and place it over those areas where the grass is currently really sharp edged/ blocky looking and it should blend it.

and i also agree with Akult on what he has said.

the general idea is very nice though. i like the river except the areas where it is blocky. keep up the work Razz
