Ok, gave it a short try... well, "cough" "cough", you should definatly take more time, this can only be a test map for you to try things out.

First of all, you have no obb area, means playable area is exactly the same size as your terrain area, you should make your obb area double size to your playable area, then you can select under background a nice horizon.

A lot of stuff float in mid air, like the ships, looks strange. you should take roads if you want roads as splines, don`t know what you selected but thats no road (screenie).

You should also don`t take the bridge you selected, once destroyed it has no repair animation, means your man walk in the air then.

For some reason I don`t know the minimap is not working.

Apart from that, great first try :)

Now you can start makin a real map. You should focus on finishing a small part first, don`t try do finish the map in one piece. Also, I can only recommend you take a close look at the officail maps to see what looks good and what doesn`t :)

lol. When i look at that ss-warfen's map it makes me cry. Look how good his first map was with details and roads ect. I have no clue why the boats floated in mid air :L.
Also the bridges..I couldnt put one down,it wouldnt go into the ground,it would stay in the air so i put 2 bridges togther which looked stupid.
I also thought my road looked stupid just didnt no what else to put there.

I carnt find tutorials for none of this bs, theres nothing about how to not make a boat float lol, or how to put a bridge down properly.
I think you should post alot of stuff that could maybe help me out henry :p . I guess it is a good start though,when i used to try without looking at tutorials i couldnt even put a hq on the map.

Your help is much needed henry ;)

Hey, there`s a lot of tutorials out there, for example you just select an object, press H and left click (dunno) and you can move an object up and down with the mouse.

Just read the Relic Wiki, its all standing there, you just have to read it :), thats how I learned it, no problem. You can also look in the relic forum (armoury>how to`s) and you get a lot of more hints.

It`s not easy, but study it and you can make a great map, no problem.
