You know, hills would probably work better.

This is supposed to a free floating island in space.

I decided to try and shift the cliff type. If this looks better and conveys the floating island look, then I'll probably got back to hills.

Edit:
Actually, the bridge isn't supposed to be "spooky". This is the bridge to a luxury (Very!) home of a company president. Private island!

Place the fences thus:

FENCE1
E
N
C
E
2

Instead of:
xFENCE1
F
E
N
C
E
2

Or create a wall template. Not too hard I'd think. <-- Easiest. Seriously. Do you want the standard BoA fence graphics?

BoA style plot or BoA world?

This scenario has NOTHING to do with the BoA world.

The plot is a mystery with some fighting.

To Do:
Finish last town <-- Current step.
Create creatures

I managed to get a nebula to work, but it didn't merge seamlessly with the black of the surrounding terrain. I need to edit a bit first.

Edit:
I'll get back to it in a bit, but first, I want to read the Half-Blood Prince. Toodles!

Edit2:
I managed a nebula, changed the bridge, and changed the hills. Opinions?

The red is a flying carpet that you arrived on. I could ditch it and add a portal, but I felt that the "portal" arrival was overdone.

Sent you a PM with details. You tell me if I got it right.

I'll work on an alternate bridge. Hm.

Okay. Several things first.

1) Changed rock type. Opinions?
IMAGE(http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v208/Dahak/rocky.jpg)

2) Cannot do underhanging rocks. BoA is unfriendly about it (tile coverup)

3) Anything else?
IMAGE(http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v208/Dahak/platform.jpg)

4) Those are the Vahnatai light, outdoors = no light emitted. Not bushes. Although, maybe I could use the big lamps... Hm.

5) I am zipping up the files to be sent to the Louvre.

Edit:
I tried to add a nebula (Orion Nebula actually is where this takes place), but the images I have are BIG, and all my attempts to shrink to managable size (32 floors) failed. I'm trying though. Maybe others objects to fill in the void?

There are 3 types of height:
Game Height
Floor Height
Terrain Height

I left the game's height alone, dropped the floor, and raised the bridge's.

Micael, the hills should stay. The islands are supposed to be floating above the Abyss. It comes out whenever I finish, which is whenever it happens. I rarely have that free time, so it is slow. Thankfully, I don't need much in the way of towns are outdoors.

If you are using the standrd sword graphic in BoA, the darkest you can get is if you use a value of 16. I've yet to manage darker w/o a custom graphic.
