Hey folks!

Here's a collection with all of my maps that I will keep updating when I add new ones:

1Runar's map pack.

Let me know what you think of the maps, any constructive criticism is welcome and I'd love to see what you do with the maps so don't be afraid to show some screenshots!

They look very nice! Great job!

 

I'm currently also working on my first map.

OH man feel free to put images for the others in the topic too!

 

These look absolutely stunning! 

 

Thanks for sharing :) And welcome to the Who to follow on Steam map section of my list/project : )

 

Allow me to suggest making a Steam Collection with your maps in it so people can Sub to all of them with one click?

    First of all thanks! And secondly, when I found out what the who to follow thing meant, wow thanks alot! You're making me blush.

     

    The collection suggestion, of course, great point, should have thought of that!

     

    Oh and regarding pictures for the other ones.. I might have lost 'em..

     

     

     

     

    Also I do have another map ready to be published, but the workshop isn't cooperating with me. When I publish the map the snapshot preview image shows up as a broken image, and any screenshots I publish also end up broken..  I don't think I've changed anything since I published my last map. I'll have to look into it some more.

    You are welcome!

     

    About steam images, Steam is currently broken, it does that from time to time when servers are busy or something. It should fix itself soon : )

    Ah thats a relief, so it's nothing on my end. I'll try and publish it later. Thanks again!

     

     

    Edit: Made a collection for all the maps and put a link in the first post.

    Is that the same as Göteborg? It looks nice anyway!

     

    May I ask one question: how do you import height maps and where to get them?

    Cheers! I've jumped the "use-trees-to-make-farmlands-bandwagon" that I think Zakerias started with his Dutch maps, it does make the maps look really good.

    Cheers! And I think that using heightmaps really helps to speed along the process, also I'm getting better at sorting out the water and such things. So the short answer is probably heightmaps + practice.

    It differs quite alot, if you go to the workshop page for the maps you can see how many subscribers it has, but for example Gothenburg is closing in on 1000 subscribers, and Valier Province closing in on 100.

    Is this real life, or just fantasy? Because it looks awesome!

     

    LOL, it looks like I'm the only one who is replying to this topic every time.

    After a bit of a hiatus I'm now back with a map inspired by Stockholm the capital of the greatest nation on earth. The first post has been updated with a link.

    Been a bit inactive here in the forum but I've still been doing some maps! The pack has been updated with no more then 9 whole maps since I posted The Dardanelles, so take a look at 'em and tell me what you think!

    Here's two screens from my two latest maps Ahrensruhe and Malangas.
