If you see a sudden change from brown or yellow to suddenly sea colors (or near white to black), then that is a cliff. In the first, each different color mean the next elevation level - this kind is a lot easier to use since it tries to reflect real life terrain colors. You may have seen maps like these two before, but just in case, here's two topographical maps. It is also the description of such surface shapes and features (especially their depiction in maps).
Topography is a field of geoscience and planetary science comprising the study of surface shape and features of the Earth and other observable astronomical objects including planets, moons, and asteroids. It is by no means complete, but there's enough here to get you started and gives you a few more tools than just the game's map editor to work with! This guide aims to cover making maps from the most basic level to the most advanced, and you can even combine different techniques from all levels! In making my maps I've used various combinations of all of these. My aim is to have as helpful a guide as possible. With this guide I hope to share some basics of what I already knew about cartography that's found in CS, and all the technical things and tips I've learned about making maps in CS. I'm making this guide, which hopefully will be more comprehensive than just a video. He's got an eagle's eye and improves my map making every time!Ĭheck out this 2018 helpful article about map making by Vladimir Mijatovic īecause I've gotten some requests from people who like the styles of my maps, and want to start making their own maps. For me there's nothing quite like learning visually, so do go search for more youtube tutorials and walk throughs like BonBonB's.Īlso check out BonBonB's What Map? map review series, because every review has taught me something new. I've been unable to make the video tutorials promised, so here's some gems I've come across:īonBonB is in the middle of a series where he walks you through his journey of making a map! While a there's a lot of information in this guide that is handy, there's also a lot missing. Whether you're new to the guide or not, I highly recommend watching this individual's clearly presented, excellent video as an introduction to the basics.
