I remade the Riverside map.

[SAYVS]

Hi,
 

The other day I asked for a way to gather all graphical assets in Project Zomboid since I want to improve the visuals of the game.

As a test, I started with the Riverside Map trying to make it more real.

Remade Version




Actual Version

 

 

You'll probably see that I added icons for all the interesting places and even tried to "name" the roads/streets. I did it because imho a real map will inform the "user" with all this stuff, so I don't think it would be unrealistic if the player has all this info on the map.
 

First of all, I want to know if you guys like it. If that's the case, I can work on the rest of the maps in a similar way. Personally, I think every map should have at least an original or tweaked style, since different companies or comporations would print different maps with different designs. I even fantasized with the idea of designing outdated, vintage maps or even more crazy ideas :D

I'm a Graphic Designer and a UI/UX Designer. I tried to apply for a job at Indie Stone years ago and the team told me that in a lot of cases they gather new employees just by roaming around and discovering modders, so I think I'll try to work my ass off doing as much improvements as I can on the graphical part (for example, aside from maps, it would be awesome to improve the car HUD/Front Panel) so in the future I can at least show what I'm capable of.
 

Finally, all feedback will be well received and I'll present corrected versions if necessary.
 

Thanks in advance!

Мне нравится, очень удобно, нужно больше таких карт, а лучше мод с такими картами

I think an actually realistic style map would not show individual houses maybe?
