WHY IS THE HOUSE IN THE MIDDLE UNFINISHED LOL

IT'S IN BUILDING STAGE XD
It is suppose to look like a building zone.
Like the people who ruin ancient stuff by building stuff on it

I like it, It's not an ordinary map, since it's made out of hardened clay.

I do think this map could be nice but honestly, any building with clay (whether stained or hardened) I think looks ugly. It is a nice map though!

EDIT: There are some very noticeable sphere spots. Try smoothing those out.

 

[LizzzyxD]

This is a really cool map

 

[DarkHender]

As Dessern5 said, the spheres are very noticeable; if you could fix that.
Also, I have a problem with the lack of resources in the map. As in maybe not enough.
Just a suggestion- and you might want to wait for others opinions on this aswell...to put some cobble/stone/sand/wood inside the mountains, as people do on nether maps to make sure there is enough resources without making the map look un-themed and ugly.

Needs some WorldEdit work and more variety. Look at the Mesa biomes in the 1.7 snapshots, try and emulate those a slight bit with the block variety. In terms of gameplay, the decent verticality could allow it to be a good RoF map. Make those changes and I'll be for it.

 

[Notme]

Nice 1.7 style map, but that canyon could have more colors :)

 

[FrenchSanta12]

Actually now I see what Dess, Darky and Clock are talking about. I agree with the fact that you can see the spheres too much.

Also I don't like that there's random orange clay blocks on the wall to the right and random torches, you placed glowstone in the other part of the map and it looks weird.

I seem to have a problem with the spheres I tried getting rid of most of them for now, I will fix those.
Also i totally forgot to mention that i have chest scatterd around with a bit of dirt and smooth stone in them.
I made the bottom 10 layers stone just in case someone is in need of cobble, So they are able to dig down and get more stone without ruining the landscape.

Also i tried to get more color into the map with a few spots of stained clay, Like Hardend clay that got wet by water (The brown clayish part) Or perhaps some White chalkish area (The white clay obviously) Not sure if this is a good idea so i would like some feedback on that if possible:)

Maybe needs more.

Yeah i tried to get some varetity in there like ancient text that dissapeared abit over time and later the archaeologists came and like placed torches or something xD I could remove it if others agree with that

You took my idea :c

Edit: I saw the secret looks amazing:)

If you put a few barren trees (no leaves) on the clay I'm sure it'd be a much better map in terms of resources. :)

 

[Refrigerated_Elements]

This can be a very nice map how ever you could

Make this more like 1.7 Mesa biomes
Remove the torches
Put stone under the clay
Use the ancient sandstone instead the orange clay for the writings
Change the grass into dirt and have barren trees

You don't need to do all of those but those are things that could make the map very good.

Done! how does this look?

I have stone under the clay like on layer 15! Personaly i think sandstone doesn't look good with clay but that's just my opinion xD And i did remove the torches.

 

[Refrigerated_Elements]

After the changes I think this map should be added now

It's probably just me and my weirdness, but it seems.. plain? I don't know
