Recreating Skyhall via map: Progress Thread

So if you guys did’nt know, Vetex showed his map in #general of vetcord, and using some ai upscaling, i managed to get a better resolution

And like i remember seeing a post, of someone recreating WOM map via magius map. So i will be doing the same!

Im not a builder, like at all, so i will be doing as my coping till next update :+1:

how long did this take to make?

an hour or 2, at my own space with constant ADHD alt tabs.

I basicly put “blocks” over the map, and then i just raise them up in the skies, and give them some basic “tree, brush, rock”

Are you planning to try different biomes than forest in the rest?

Since this area is “connected” (quite litteraly, it has so many damn bridges lol) i will keep doing that part with just normal trees, (dont mind the building, im gonna take stuff from toolbox for models), but for other chained islands ig.

I may as well just first do them islands without any features and figure out after i’ve built them :person_shrugging:

what color are you painting the buildings

I will prob using just some free models for mediveal building from toolbox, buuut i will keep to blue-ish colors

Added small island near the “wilds”
Added Library, which is just a some church model sized down, and with bookshelvs inside
Added some piles of dirt
Found bridge maker plugin, with which im making bridges







Next will be snow area. Since Suki said that islands are somewhat weather based, i’ll make “shattered” islands as i call them into transition zone (similar to how east of sameria has transition into desert), but with pines replacing trees, and lighter grass with snow piles.
Oh and town will be just some medival models of houses.

Green - what’s done
Yellow - what im planing to do next.

PS
Im not sure when i should start refining locations. Right now, i try to keep everything on “same level” and in basic shapes. So im not quite sure when i will be refining the map, probably after im done with whole skyhall i will create a copy of file and start refining it.

This looks dope

Added snow area


Bridge area.

Im 100% sure that in game it will have different heights, and i will try to do it later on. But for now its all on same level.

Town area

Managed to find some house kits, and made this.




This is mayor’s house

Some islands behind the mayor

A rock

Large island


Overall progress

Now that top portion is done, i probably will do the rest of the rocks, and here’s my question…

  • Should i start adding details to already created islands
  • Or should i first build whole skyhall, and then do details
