I built a resort based on the Maldives and am hoping to improve it. I have some plans to implement jobs within the resort for all players and various activities but I’m not too sure on what landscaping I should do.
Does anyone have any recommendations for general map improvements please?
You need more colors and details. For example:
More brighter green color for vegetation, a lot of multicolored flowers bushes, maybe some yacht are swimming around.
You can try going on Google Maps and popping into Street View/Photo Spheres somewhere in the region you’re building in. Working with references of accurate local flora can really help drive up the realism and can serve as inspiration for color palettes!
From the photos, it seems you’re doing a great job of adding height variations for the plants, so things like color variation (bright pinks contrasting the green) would also help make the environment more interesting.
I’m not sure how you could achieve this, but different shades/colors of water. I would also add flat rocks in the water. Make sure you can see the sun, and brighter colors/contrast. Overall, the game looks awesome but those are some of my suggestions.
