Hello gentlemen of the internet, it's Most Wanted here, and the wait is finally over!
After at least a week of working on it, I'm finally finished with the real Need for Speed Carbon Geographical map!
Based on multiple thoughts, beliefs and every single video and thread created by all of us so far, I can finally present you the finished work, made in Paint.NET, and with a size of 9000x9000 pixels. I've done my best to make it as accurate as possible, although it may indeed have very minor mistakes, this is the most possible map with the least amount of paradoxes to date. Also the first map, where the canyons have the exact same size as the city roads. Something that was pretty difficult to achieve earlier.
Another thing that you might wanna note is the fact, that some hills look smaller on map, than the way they currently look like. The way the environments are modeled is very strange indeed, and most city textures like the two lakes textures, are way too small to be actually realistic.
Also did not include any of the random cities seen around Palmont. The reason to that is the issue with the sizing, and on the other hand, I'll leave you guys to it ! I'll also attempt making more versions of this one to mark different areas.
Okay, done with explaining stuff,
So, here it is!
CLICK HERE FOR FULL SIZE! (9000x9000)
So what do I have to do here?
In case you'd like to enter this contest, your job is to get the map, use whatever kind of advanced photo editing software you possess (photoshop recommended), and do whatever you want with it to make it look better! Main goal is boosting its graphics, of course, but you can add all sorts of extras if you want.
Any criterias?
There are a few.
1. Do not include your name as a watermark in it, because I'm going to do that instead. Once all of the maps are submitted, I'll mark every single one of them with the proper credit given on the bottom, via text.
2. Do not make major geographical changes. Just try to keep the map look as much as it looks like originally.
3. Do not include cities from other need for speed games. Because the area of carbon does not contain any of them. No Rockport, no Bayview, no Olympic City, no Tri-Cities, etc.
Where should I submit it?
If you'd like to leave a comment on the geographical map, or submit your own buffed version of it, simply continue to this thread, where you'll be able to reply (in this board you're not supposed to).
The real NFS Carbon Map Submissions
Does the winner get anything?
@chaosdrifter94 supplied me with a Steam gift for a game called Defy Gravity, which is a cool indie puzzle platformer, with system requirements that are so minimal, even my pc runs it!
store.steampowered.com/app/96100/
Whoever wins the contest, will receive this game from me as a steam gift!
Also been thinking about a special rank, something that we've had on MWARMY earlier, but I'm not sure about that yet. Don't take my word for it! ;D
When does the contest end?
2014-06-30
You have about 5 days to use your magic, and add extra badassery to the map!
Winners will be announced the day after.
How will the winner get chosen?
Instead of the voting system, I'll chose the winner myself based on which map I like the best. That really is it!
Will the ones who don't WIN get something though?
You guys gotta remember, that the map is going to be in the final main Need for Speed Carbon of mine, the NFS Carbon Geographical Map video. All the submissions are going to be in the video with proper credit and shoutouts given along with it! I don't think you wanna miss that!
I'll keep you guys informed in the other thread about upcoming changes, if there will be any!
Good luck!
