Let's have a brainstorm!

What kind of items would be suitable for a natural landscape. Starting with the most obvious:

  • Plants
  • Rocks and cliffs
  • Tree stumps
  • Logs
  • Pieces of wood
  • Rivers and creeks
  • Waterfalls
  • Lakes
  • Burned out capfires
  • Ruins
  • Scattered garbage (that's humans for you)
  • Old stonewalls and broken down fences
  • Tracks

What else?

So....should we also add lumberjack droppings then? XD

Do we throw those people in there who get way too trigger happy with their capslock button?!

 

I'd say weather can be nice.

Snow for a snowy landscape, perhaps rain for a lush forest. I saw very very nicely done particle clouds with rain effects at two moon garden that I am very likely to get soon, once I figure out what I want to change in my parcel to make it fit. Funny how I have 11k sqm that's landscaped to death and now I'm torn between wanting to keep it that way because it was a long process....and being excited about starting all over again >.<

Let me make a little list:

- Weather
- Environmental sounds
- Mushrooms
- Natural caves
- Natural alcoves
- Puddles
- Animals (especially lesser used ones like racoons, badgers, fireflies, bugs, bears, wolves)

Why not making a list arranged by material?

Ground:

  • Grass
  • Tree/tree stumps
  • Rocks
  • vegetation rubble (leaves, wood splinters, twigs)
  • Dirt
  • Mud
  • Mushrooms
  • Plants

 

Water:

  • River
  • Creek
  • Waterfall
  • Puddles

 

Animals:

  • Mammals
  • Insects
  • Reptilians (turtles/snakes)
  • Anfibians (frogs/toads)

 

Environment:

  • Weather
  • Sounds
  • Animal Droppings
  • Burrows/Hives
  • Fog/Myst
  • Caves

 

ManMade:

  • Campfires
  • Garbage
  • Dead animals (these could be dead for natural reasons but the main reason so far is humans, usually)
  • Furnitures
  • Ruins

Animal homes; like a beaver lodge or bird's nest.

Old tractor

Roadside trailer serving food for travellers

Radio or cellphone mast on top of a hill

Oh no! Now I actually have to update my blog!!! ;)

Animal homes already are there and birds nests are mentined specifically. Not beaver lodges (and beaver dams) though, those are great ideas and so are the other things you list. Thank you!
