Hi, I am looking for recommendations on zone mapping.
I am wanting to develop an island world which consists of different zones such as farmland for a zone, city or mine and so on.
I am wondering what you guys do to develop this style of game when it comes to maps. I have 3D world studio and i know that i can create the maps within there etc.
But this way I dont get a digital image of the map unless I bring together each different zone location into one map.
Also, because there is a lot of landscaping rather than architectual as you would see within a FPS game using tons of brushes for each bit of land on the map.
I am after simple geomtry for the landscape (if anyone has seen the graphics for Animal Crossing, thats what im aiming for)
Hopefully I have given people enough information to give me feedback,
Thanks in advance and all feedback will be greatly appreciated!
Chewy
