I haven’t posted anything about terrain in a while so here is a quick preview of a few things I’m working on.

New style urban ramps
Posted Image

This is part of an extensive upgrade to the urban cliffs that includes hundreds of new tiles so I can create dynamitic cliffs with multiple levels that will have a much more realistic & random feel to them (its really pathetic how incomplete WW left the cliffs in RA2 :rolleyes: )

Asian style cliffs
Posted Image

This is the third set of cliffs that is available in newurban, it’s based on the stone walls typically seen around Japanese & Chinese cities & castles. I used photos of the wall around Osaka castle to create the texture for this, it’s still a WIP & I’ll probably dirty it up a bit more before it’s finished.

it's nice to see the diversity of stuff you're working on atm. :rolleyes: we've known this for a while, but this sort of touch will raise DDay high above any other mod made for RA2/YR.

There is a forth cliff set that I’m going to make too which will be used on pacific island & jungle maps, I’m aiming for something like this. I want to finish off the other cliffs first before I start on it tho.

Sweetness. :p

OLD SIG
When history witnesses a great change Razgriz reveals itself,
first as a dark demon. As a demon it uses it power to rain death upon the land,
and then it dies. However after a period of slumber Razgriz returns
As the demon sleeps, man turns on man.
Its own blood, and madness soon cover the earth.
From the depths of despair awaken the Razgriz.
Its raven wings ablaze in majestic light.
Amidst the eternal waves of time
From a ripple of change shall the storm rise
Out of the abyss peer the eyes of a demon
Behold the Razgriz, its wings of black sheath
The demon soars through the dark skies
Fear and Death trail its shadow beneath
Until Men united wield a hallowed sabre
In Final Reckoning, the beast is slain.
Razgriz intrerpretation

Wow, urban one is very good. :p

The other one kinda looks odd, at first i thought it was road. :p The perspective seems odd, might just be me though. :dry:

Cliffs in RA2 are typically vertical but the Asian one has a slight slope if that’s what you mean about the perspective. Once the whole tile set is finished & it’s interacting with other map elements it should look fine tho.

These look EXCELLENT, and I love the idea. The new urban (not NewUrban) ramp will make for more compact docks and such I'm sure. Utilization of map space = ++

Oh, and the Japanese rock wall looks very nice too. For a suggestion though, think about water runoff. No lonly would it mke for more moss growth, but there would either have to be some small drainage (or large drainage, since it would be a better visual clue that it's an uncrossible cliff if you have a moat) or a tiny fringe of mud along the bottom of the cliff.

Still though, looks excellent and I can't wait to play.
Being a total douche.

Docks where what I had in mind when I made it & if you like that your gona love the other urban cliff features I’m working on.

Moss & mud are what I plan to add, I’ve already sharpened the texture to give better definition to each individual rock & also made it a bit more rugged at the bottom for a more natural look.

Double posting I know but I just finished the next one :blush:

You know these have to be the most boring things I’ve ever made, because there new & not just a reskin of existing tiles they take bloody ages to put together. The thought that I still have a ton of these to do is a bit too much, I need to work on something else for a while >.<

Very cool, although I can't imagine the angle of that asian cliff.

as a Chinese, I shall say your Asian style cliffs not odd at all ;)
some time ppl plant some small tree on it (yes, between the rocks or bricks), maybe you can have some to tell ppl where the vertical direction is :blush:

all great works!

The Asian walls just remind me of las ruinas de America Central (although I can't quite picture some M3's crawling down the Pirámide del sol...)
Good work, and no matter how boring, keep it up :blush:
