Map looks amazing, I would definitely vote for this on RoF! You may want to change the shape of the spawn, though. It's a little weird...

Yeah, the spawn was actually a last minute change. It was originally on the isolated house, but I was afraid people would die from falling on the land instead of water.

I'll fix up the spawn ASAP.

Yeah, I just saw from the screenies that it was some diamond-shape thing. I'm not sure if that would mess up the lava (don't think it would) but...

It could mess up lava? I just thought it would adhere to a square format, with the diamond shape being for ~*~fanciness~*~.

How's about this?:

The terrain doesn't feel very natural- It was obviously made using WorldEdit. Still, I feel like this map could be fun and should be given a chance.

 

[Notme]

Hmm.. I like this map, good luck!

Really? Do you have any tips for future maps to make better terrain?
I mean besides the sand spheres and smooth tool.

You may want to smooth it more, deserts in general are very very flat. Yes more terrain is good in a map but you still want to try to appeal to the normal idea of that biome. Try using //naturalize to after smoothing it, it makes it look a bit more appealin and less awkward

I've never seen a map quite like this one. c: It looks quite interesting, though a little tough to navigate at first, what with all the cliffs. I'd like to give it a try, though! :D

Although this is certainly helpful, I feel like the best way of making something look natural is by editing it by hand. Sure, this may take an extraordinary long amount of time, and you might not have the "judging skills" to know what looks natural and what doesn't.

Another great way of getting natural terrain is by using WorldPainter. It's a third-party tool which allows you to create awesome and natural terrain (once you learn how to work with it, anyway) and has been used by Butamou, Harold1995 & me!

I'm a bit iffy about this map, it looks good, but world edit is very.. obvious. A map doesn't look good when it's obvious, maybe you could try fixing some of it up?

When I saw this for the first time I though "Wow!" great job on the map! I do see the WE in parts of the map. But for me that is not a game breaker. Hope to see this on RoF.

 

[Dess]

Accepted! This will be added once we get a chance to do so.

 

[Ogarci]

Uh oh! It looks Corinthia is no longer on your plot. This is understandable since you made it 6 months ago , psycodragons . Would you happen to have a copy of it or know where I can obtain a schematic of the map?

Thanks!

Went looking for a schematic to put into a worldfile but couldn't find one, so unless @psychodragons moved the map, it looks like it's been lost
