  • [WIP] Community Atlas - Kumarikandam - Xinxing - Ylangxi City

    The water texture looks rather "busy" to my eye, but that's probably just me.

    There is an issue with some of the text however, where the grey glow is blending into the background in places - on roads and buildings, especially where the road edges are outlined with narrow dark lines - e.g. "Petaluma Stockyards" and "The Heart Markets". In other places - e.g. "Northwind House", "Xi Ling's Market Gardens" - the text itself looks somewhat transparent when set above paler backgrounds. This is all based on the Gallery image, incidentally. However, it did look as if there problems with the text in parts of even the lower-res whole-map view posted above here.

    The bulk of the city seems a little empty of named places. Maybe even a few major street names might help here, although perhaps a few of the larger or different-looking properties might be named as well/instead?

    Think that the town is a bit "special-heavy" (too many special buildings and not enough normal residences)

    Well, if we assume the Triangle Flats are residences too, along with those properties surrounding Won Seng Courtyard, that looks to be only about 10% "special" areas/places/properties within the walled city, which seems perfectly reasonable overall (and also treating the walls, gates and wall-towers as separate from this minor exercise).

  • Ferraris Style; Ramparts Not Working

    I can actually see the pitted texture possibly being useful, but not here.

    Unfortunately, as Sue mentioned, the appearance of the acne-pitted texture changes as you zoom in or out to the map, and you may find too that it appears different again when you prepare an exported image (resolution-dependent). This makes it difficult to rely on this appearance when drawing maps.

    Thanks very much @Monsen!

    You're doing well to get things done this quickly; I imagine this will be one of your busiest times of year for non-PF matters, coming up on the end of the academic year and suchlike.

    Plus I know you have more than just my maps to place in the Atlas currently!
