Ugly salami terrain?

Recommended Posts

One thing that has always bothered me about dayz is certain patches of terrain with these god awful ugly yellow blotches. Everything about dayz looks so authentic and immersive until you lay your eyes on this flat terrain. My guess is that they are trying to make the terrain look detailed and rich with these color variations but it ends up achieving the exact opposite.

 

I am no graphics major or adobe photoshop expert, i just did this in paint in about 30 seconds.

 

I always thought.. this terrain would look so much better if these ugly yellow spots were just plain green.

I know my editing is ugly and uneven.. But the point im trying to make is why don't they just make the terrain color just plain green? Open both in two new internet tabs and compare to see what im talking about

There aren't a whole lot of lawn care companies still working during the zombie apocolypse in Chernarus.

Salami terrain. :D

 

Sorry, made me laugh.

 

I'd actually like foliage being rendered at greater distance. Double or tripple the size or o.

Theres a great little mod for A2 called LandTex. It helps with this problem a lot. You could use it in the MOD, as it didn't require the server to have it or a signature file. Mabe the devs could look into implementing it, or something simmilar

Wow interesting post, that players mod looks thousands of times better than the default arma textures.. Arma land textures look like shite to be quite frank. I understand they are trying to give it the illusion that it is not flat and undecorated, but ew.. just ew.
