So I've been making a 400x400 map of Dracula's castle. For all you terrain lovers out there, the map is about 70 percent forest, with a main road, random houses, and, of course, the castle. Thanks!

The castle is on a large mountain in a bowl-like terrain. There are extreme hills in all directions. Mostly pine forest, aside from the actual castle there are about 10 little houses and relics in the woods. But, be careful, tributes, of the Count's malevolent tricks and traps, and the snares lain out in the woods to lure you in. And most importantly:
Fear.
The.
Beasts.


GUYS I THINK WE'RE DONE HERE
So I am fairly certain I have finished. Download link:

Is the cornocopia the namesake castle? If it is, I think it should be bigger.

Other than that, I like the idea of this map, along with the scenes set up by the terrain and buildings.

The cornucopia is in the center courtyard. In the screenshots, that is just the first draft of the center only. There is much more to be done. Thanks!

based off the screenshots it looks very simple (your texture pack probably has an influence on it) but I read much more was to be done so I'm guessing that wont be a problem when it's finished. I'll keep an eye out for this map :D

Of course. The map itself is very simple landscape, although the forest is very dense. The castle is going to be very complicated though.

Thanks! Also, a question.
On the topic of terraforming, should there be large structures of arches and such?
There wasn't much of it described in the book, so I COULD just put some in there. But then again, it doesn't really fit.
But it looks nice. So. Big arches? Definitely some small ones...
