the mountains in the fourth pic look pretty unnatural having the same hight though.
and you shoudl use a groundtexture with higher resolution, plus you should probably brighten it a bit, it looks kind of unrealistic right now in my opinion.
thanks
:lol: thats the plateau in the 4th pic
hrmm cant find a better ground texture but i will birghten it abit

Love the lighting, hate the excessive bloom. Also, I spy a floating tree in one of the screenshots (the ninth one down, I believe).

i swear, you have a cave in almost every map you make...
offtopic: i had a dream about a plateau like that a while back though...its kind of scary.. (the terrain was different though so dont get too freaked out XD)

it looks definitelly better with the new textures but the colorcombination still seems a bit weird, what kind of environment/landscape do you want to create? maybe you can find a few pictures of a similiar real landscape and use those as reference.
