New Zealand in DF
« on: August 15, 2010, 12:27:31 am »

Hey fellers, I've been playing around with PerfectWorld and I thought I'd share this with you

Sorry but I don't know what Australia looks like Mountain range or river wise

Also the glacier kind of ruins it, but you can't really change it so just deal with it :p



A quick mockup :D

That's the great thing about this forum. We can derail any discussion into any other topic.
It's not an embark so much as seven dwarves having a simultaneous strange mood and going off to build an artifact fortress that menaces with spikes of awesome and hanging rings of death.

Do the middle east next. I want to have a land war over a very tiny country which is badass, and invented a very LARGE amount of badass guns.

Your map seems to have a giant mountain where lake Taupo should be :(

Well on the other hand if you compare Df-australia to satelite pics from google maps of austarlia you see that the df-australia has some rivers. some fitting riverbeds can be found on the satelite pictures which is quite interesting.

Shouldn't the evil biome be Sydney and not the various national parks west of Brisbane?

You could do the earth, but it's going to look goofy with only one pole/icecap.

*sigh* you can import a temperature map into df (atleast in that mappainter thingy) - thus you can have two poles you can also have the entire world but the map isnt fine-grained enough for one.

Problem is I think the latitude-based temperature is more drastic than the adjustable temperature.
