Welcome to Gaia! ::

BEHOLD! I come bearing... MAPS!

Both can and will be changed, since nothing is set in stone. If there's a sprite of a person by a building it means it's inhabitied, except in the case of Mercy. I couldn't find a sprite to fit him xD Actually, I couldn't find hardly any Harvest Moon sprites, so... If you don't like what I put, or where I put it, tell me and I'll try to change it... But if it's a sprite I'd really, REALLY preferr it if you found one for me xD;;; Anyways here they are:

Yeah, I got most of them from Pokemon or Harvest Moon: Friends of Mineral Town XD; If Gamma wants an origional map, however, I don't think I'd be able to help at all o_o I am *no* good with making my own sprites.

>.< im so late....i think it looks cool though :3

You could say everything is up for discussion. I didn't want to have everything set up in stone so the first people in here could 'forge' it the way they wanted so at least some people are happy.

We don't have any landmarks yet. The only things for sure is we have all those places (topics). We have a lake, we don't have a beach.... yet. If you stand in the peak of the mountain you can see the lake and the spring to the distance and thats where the moon is born every night (Fall) - The moon rises from the east, right?.

The time system: I think we are keeping the 2RL days = 1RP day time system if that's ok with you. The events and such will be in the Loopholes subforum (will be renamed later) so they can last a week or more if needed.

Other than that. Everything's up for discussion. I was in exams week but they're over now so starting tomorrow I'll be online almost all day long (except Tuesdays and Thursdays).

Browsing through the old documents in my PC at home I found my Harvest Moon folder. I opened it and I found a sketch of a map I drew a year ago. It pretty much shows what I had. Except for the peak, which I have to tweak a little so it faces east and not south.

As you can see there is a river, and two lakes. I liked that idea since the beginning. The two rivers are connected by an underground stream. And the Southern Lake gives birth to a second river which runs all the way through the valley to the beach (If you want a beach, if not we can get rid of it). The whole town is located in the valley. I marked a zone as "valley" but that's more like the place where I thought the farms would be. The 'mountains' to the north and east of the valley are more like hills, and not precisely mountains. The only rocky mountains are the ones to the west, where the waterfall, spring and peak are.

So, what do you say? Do you like it? Remember it's not set in stone so we can make it any way you all want.


Also, if you have the time please PM me a tektek'd avi of our Goddess. I'll make it a contest. The winner will get 5,000g a Sealed Envelope for September 07 and 5,000 Gold (g is gaia's currency, Gold (G) is HM's currency). blaugh

I think I did post it before, when I first drew it. Maybe that's why it seems familiar to you.

Oops redface you're right. I will have to delete some of the mountains (the ones closer to the Southern Lake) so we have some kind of path to the upper sections. As I said, it's just a sketch, it's supposed to be wrong so we can make a final 'draft'. sweatdrop

Good luck with your tests! (and/or results) 3nodding
