Remember, These Tutorials are very simple. They are for beginners, but pros could watch to Map Type: Sunny ForestMap Size: 23X19How to doSince many of the nature types map has the same mapping system, it's pretty easy to make a Sunny Forest map. This type of map is my kind of favorite, so it's an honor to teach it out.
First of all, make a little road. Since it's a forest, don't make the road straight. It dosen't look realistic, and looks very.....ulgy.
The road works on all layers, but it should be in the first layer.
You could have a little river going through the forest. But not so big, just a little one. If you are planning to have a big one, make it in different forms, and not just a big straight one. You could also use the fallen trees as bridges.
Next, it's time for trees, flowers, grass and stones. You could have the flowers, trees and stones on the third layer, so they can stand on the grass, but I recomend to have the trees on the second layer. Also, you could have a darker part of the grass on the first layer. When you are making the tress, make one half that the second layor, and the other half at the third layor. You could also divide the tree into 4 sections, where in the bottum half of the tree, were on is on the third layor, and the other one is on the second layer. Doing like this, the trees could stay close together.
Now, you think that the map is very empty. But Im not done yet.
Now, on the third layer, it's time to put out the Tree autotile.
Now, you could have some fogs, animals, and stuff like that. It's very fun to make forests maps, and I enjoy it alot.
And here's one I have done.
As I like to say. " Mapping is Imagination".
