The latest update to GTA: World 2 map

Shouldn't Moscow and Istanbul be bigger than Berlin and Hamburg, also shouldn't Ukraine and Belarus have a ton of farmland?

- So the cities are from google maps, just I picked the streets. They are in the same scale. So even if Istanbul and Moscow are big in population, their urban area isn't bigger that Berlin or Hamburg.

- The map is not finished product. I'm just showing that there has beed progress.

Sorry, I didn’t mean to be overly critical, it’s an awesome map.  Just thought you were aiming for accuracy.  I would love to see some of the landscapes like the Alps and the National Parks of Europe in free roam video game form.

I have attempted to add Bullworth, San Diego, Carcer City, Cotton Mouth, Anywhere City, and Atlanta. This was my first time using photoshop, and I have not played midnight club, Bully, Red Dead Redemption, or Manhunt and do not have the maps for Cottonmouth. I am unsure of my Carcer City map, so I would greatly appreciate any maps or recommendations for these in the future. I want to add in Cayo Perica, Gurma, and Cuba, but I would need Satellite maps. I would only paste them into the plan. Carcer city has been split into two.

I have attempted to add Bullworth, San Diego, Carcer City, Cotton Mouth, Anywhere City, and Atlanta to Senginos GTA USA. This was my first time using photoshop, and I have not played midnight club, Bully, Red Dead Redemption, or Manhunt and do not have the maps for Cottonmouth. I am unsure of my Carcer City map, so I would greatly appreciate any maps or recommendations for these in the future. I want to add in Mexico to the south, Canada to the north,  Cayo Perica, Guarma, and Cuba in the area were the plane was, but I would need Satellite maps. and I would only paste them into the map. Carcer city has been split into two.

https://imgur.com/IrtCqIm

in red are the cities I have created in blue are the ones Sengin has made, the best city I have created is Cottonmouth and the worst is San Diego and so it will be replaced any recommendations and Photoshop tricks will be very helpful.

after some messing around I believe people can use the link on imgur.

If you have problems with opening the image please tell me.

I have taken out all planes and boats as to add in cities more easily but they will be replaced.

What tools you guys recommend for map making?

Paint.net or Photoshop

I will always recommend vector tools, inkscape for free or adobe illustrator if you can...get your hand on a copy. It's got a tiny bit of a learning curve over drawing with the brush but the results are a lot cleaner, infinitely scalable, and easier to make changes to.

Hey there Fellas, like most of new joiners", I was here for seeing many enthusiastic architects"'s amazing maps, al those being very well done.

And, form half through the 2020, mapmaking has became one of my hobbies, and I've improved very well.

Anyways, here my concept, envisioning Seattle and Chicago, if they were having their part in gta Universe:

http://imgur.com/a/y4zt1yz

Incomplete tho, this map Conceptualizes Those two cities, being named Ranier and Carcer ofcourse, being made in GTA SA's map style.

Yes.

 

Working on a map of Colombia.

 

ebdzkNi.png

 

I'm very obviously far from finished.

 

The 3 cities here are Bogota, Medelin (top left) and Cartegena. I wanted to make up some names for these cities but can't really think of anything lol(so, suggestions would be appreciated). The total landmass is roughly equivalent to GTA 5's map area. Each city is around 40-50 % the size of los Santos. I know that most people expect 1 los Santos sized city from a Colombia map but I personally believe that 3 smaller cities would be way more fun. I was also thinking about adding cali in the center.

 

I'll also be adding 5-6 Islands around Colombia, one of which will be Cayo Perico.

 

Sorry for the low res btw

Here are some name suggestions: 

Bogotá = Quesadera (after it's founder Gonzalez Jimenez de Quesada)  |  Altacombe (it just came to my mind rn)  |  Esperanza  |   Cordillera
Medelín = Cocampujo  |  Candelaria  |  Santa Magdalena  |  Santuario  |  Ciudad de Primavera
Cartagena = Fuerte Inquisición  |  Fuerte Boquerón  |  Puerto de San Pedro  |  Sanbenito  |  Puerto Tropical

Here's a  San Fierro Bay thing that I've been working on. It's an old map I made when I was younger and less skilled, that was also different more cartoonish colour scheme. A few days ago I revisited the map and expanded it greatly and removed some stuff, and added some new stuff, still a long way to go with it but I think it's looking good. I haven't entirely redone the colour scheme yet. Any sort of feedback would be appreciated. I'm aware that some of the highway stuff probably doesn't make much sense in a realistic environment. Cities were made on paint but the outer landscape was done with paint.net, what I currently use

It's pretty good but it looks too straight. the roads should be a little curved. other than that, Great Job! Man.

Your map looks great but the image is still not embedded. You need to use the "insert image from url" button and then paste the Imgur link, if you wanna embed it.

The island of Mojado, The Obamas; A recreation of the leaked map based on Nassau, The Bahamas. It's not perfect but it's the first map I've ever made and I think it looks nice. Would definitely appreciate suggestions and critisism.
