My take on Kora

I tried to blend some pail green foliage with desert and ocean. I thought the dark rocky patch went with the desertness, but here's the texture (shrunk to 512x256).

I would say just get rid of that dark spot, otherwise it looks pretty good. The dark spot just doesn't really seem to 'belong' to me.

Kora looks pretty good.

Reguarding Kora, the oceans are the red, and the land is the sick green and reddish combo. What do you think about redoing Kora's oceans in dark sick orange with a lot of black? Or do you like the pale red?

As for Kryseth, i think you're right, out with the oil feild, in with more sand.

(I guess i should start on the terrain color schemes. I've been putting it off b/c its such a PITA. Making the terrain maps, that's fun, that's creative. The .raw terrain schemes, that's just... ick. Having to open and close the game so many times, it just gets old quick, as i'm sure everyone that works on games knows. Oh well, off to work i go.)

Alternate Iconia texture, a mechinized Iconia with piping and a mechanical look over the surface.

*Yells into the wilderness* Hellllloooooo?? Anyone???? Kryo??????

I think I prefer the tubeless Iconia myself

And Kora? You prefer the red oceans over perhaps an orange/black ocean.

Darker might look better, go ahead and give it a try.

You better end up releasing this.

You better end up releasing this.

I plan to release them shortly after the final release of Dark Avatar (february 14th as of now), to make sure they're fully compatible with any last minute changes. I don't forsee any issues, but one never knows.

OK, i took one more stab at a mechanized Iconia. I removied the clouds for a better view. Yea? Nea?

I think it's pretty sweet looking.   

Ok, here's my second version of Kora. Darker, more of an orange-red hue. Again no clouds so you can see the texture better. Kryo, everyone, opinions? This one or the first?







P.S.
Kryo, out of curiosity, is there any way currently to designate a planet in CustomPlanets.xml as one of non-standard types of colonizable worlds (I.E. Toxic, or Aquatic.)?

This mod goes on my list of things to get

Nice work!!
