AAAANYways. look at the map ive been working on :]
#its actually rlyyy unfortunate bc ive been spending all day sprucing it up it ws originally just generated by the globe making site i like#and then i realized that i dont quitee know how to make the height map.. the original generation it ws rly easy i just made the map#grayscale and then futzed with it a little bit and i got it looking rly good..but im the process of lining everything to make it easier to#comprehend they got too seperate from eachother sighs. so i might have to go in and manually add more transitional colors#but the trouble is id have to do that for the height map AND the normal map which is also a geographical map..#also its rly weird. on da site i rly prefer the look of the 3d heightmap#rather than 2d just adding like shadows your know#but when i do the 3d it gets this huge black blotch that i cant for the life of me get rid of#and it rly sucks. bc i think its sooo cute when i have the height map intensity set pretty high#bc it makes da planet look small..#but yas. and i cant just use the uhmm original height map#bc i made some pretttyy extensive edits#not rly. mainly i#well its hard t talk abt bc its all technically one continent but that ties into what i changed#bc i didnt realize it was all one continent bc on the original map it generated it was cut up rly weird#and i couldnt get it to fit as one thing. so i went in and smushed some aprts closer together#the biggest is umm the bottom right corner#the top part of that mass USED to hang down below and to the rifht#and bled over to the other side of the image#i moved that and the top left land mass to be closer to the top right#so i could fit it all together...#and the hright map thing wouldnt be an issue if the 3d height map thing was working. it just looks sliiiightly wonky with the 2d height map#i also need to smooth out the whole thing bc i used a digital brush like an IDIOT and i dont like how that looks when its on the sphere#oh also do u guys wanna see the globe of it.. grins#ik i was already doing this awhile ago but ohwell.#once i get it wayyy more finalized like. once ive added in major settlements and the like. id love to try to make an actual globe of it..#i wanna get it to a point im rly happy with FIRST bc otherwise ill change things on the globe#and then ill get annoyed bc i wont be able to transfer the irl globe into a digital one#bc thats what happened last time when i sketched a world on a ball. grins.#hopefully i dont drop this one like i did with that one.. idt i will since i have an accurate flat map thats literally made to be a globe
