IMUS, the only thing you need to do is change the placement of the phys objects in the bottom-right corner and it's perfect. Make them seem as organic as the plants around them. :smt023

Also this is my final entry (disregard previous entry):

It seems almost hazy, not sure if you're going for that.
Besides that i think its great.

Although are there any submissions that actually use photo stitching??

I might have to pull out of this one boys. But i will finish the map regardless later...had alot of trouble getting working Digital elevation maps and kept switching between the SDK and Alien Swarm SDK as it conflicted with the duration of this battle.

I wanted the mountains to have that jagged effect.

there's realistic jagged and then there's "help I'm a power of 2 displacement" jagged. Also crank up anti-aliasing for screenshots!

good work so far :D

Nice looking entries everyone. All we need now is for 904 to make a 'Final Images & votes' thread. :D
