I think the water matches the theme (what exactly is the theme again? ;D).

The theme is something like a Scrub Land thingy...
It is based on a dry area on north-east Brazil, so I don't know how to say that in english, in portuguese we call Caatinga.

The black-white tiles don't seem to fit in, but appart from that it looks like a great tileset! Well done!

I think a better name for it would be 'Wasteland' or something. Download?

In the US we would call this type of environment -
Code: [Select]
[url=http://s6-us2.ixquick.com/do/show_picture.pl?l=english&cat=pics&c=pf&q=dakota+badlands&h=585&w=1389&th=71&tw=170&fn=ND%2520badlands%25201.jpg&fs=232.2k&el=alltheweb_pics_1&tu=http:%2F%2Fimages-us2.ixquick.com%2Fcgi-bin%2Fsf%3Ff%3D2c9e30d2ef2cbd9a98d1c937f2945db7.jpg&rl=NONE&u=http:%2F%2Fwww.greatsportinglinks.com%2FND%2520badlands.html&rid=LFLMNQLSPSNK&oiu=http:%2F%2Fwww.greatsportinglinks.com%2FND%2520badlands%25201.jpg]Badlands [/url]or Scabland.

Eastern Nevada looks like this also, its known as the Great Basin. Northwest Nevada has an area of Playa called The Black Rock Desert. Portions of the Mojave Desert in California. Eastern Washington has an area called the Channeled Scablands and of course the Badlands in South Dakota.

NE Brazil Caatinga looks like the Ruby Valley in Arizona.

Emerald/green water in the tileset is perfect, in fact the whole tileset looks excellent  ;D ;D :D

Stone Surface:

Maybe replace the checkered tan and white surface with salty mud polygons found in deserts and on the surface of Mars.

Road Surface:

In Canada, badlands usually refer to places in Alberta and Saskatchewan where Dinosaurs roamed.

How could I miss this??
Sorry that I didn't see it. Of course you can use my cactus!
And I really like the green water it looks different and thats good!

Do you need any new model for this? What about some new date palms designed for this tileset?
Or will this be too "green" for a desert?

... and, by the way, we need a download ;)!

(Update:  I set this topic as sticky, for a while  )

Oh wow!  I like this tileset a lot.  I might have to use it for Sun and Moon, since it looks about like how the edge of the Lanto desert should look.  I agree that the tiles look a little strange, though.

 ;D ;D ;D ;D

A very good tileset! Especially the look and feel is good and
the night light is simply GREAT!

I see some little problems:

- The "big tree" object is some kind of grass which is passable now. This will change the gameplay in several maps, I'm still a bit undecided if I like this fact or not. Is it the same setup like dark forest which has similar problems?

- The water has no animation, probably you can give it a very little bit of an animation to make big seas look better. Probabaly add some grey to make it less transparent.

- harvesting cacti???? That's a hard job  ::)

Titi:

1- It was made from teh Dark Forest, I will check that.

2- I will do that. ;D

3-LoL, I checked that already... I didn't want to make the cactus a bush because the forest would look weird with only those dead trees, but I will try some stuff.

try one model with a tree surrounded by cacti or side by side with one.

Map: Badwater (beta) was created with this tileset in mind. It will undergo further revision dependent upon tileset tweaking and changes to the object list.

New tree graphic?

Nice idea Trappin! I was trying to find a good tree I had the Thor Acacia in mind but it is too large, that one is perfect!

I changed the water, so soon I will upload the version with water moviment.

I think there is too much rain in this tileset!
Try to lower it a lot or remove "rain" completely

I did that already.  :D
I'm also taking the water objects off, or putting something else there, because it looks weird.
