Description:

Lake Otha is a region named after the lake that forms from the fresh waters cascading out of the mountains, and the melting of snow that builds up in the winter. The region is bathed in lush green plains in the warm months, and beautiful white snow-capped mountains in the colder ones.

The great rivers running through the region serve as shortcut routes for many shipping lanes, both cargo and cruise ships alike. Highways and rail meander through the landscape, connecting up towns and cities throughout the greater area. Together with its resource-rich plains, this region is ready to house a thriving city.

The region has small pockets of oil, lots of fertile grounds, and rich forests. Due to volcanic activity some millions of years ago, the area is abundantly blessed with Ore deposits that have been brought to the surface from deep within the planet. However, most of it sits in the high peaks of the surrounding mountains. Anyone willing to take on the costs of mountainous Ore mining is bound to make a killing!

The dependencies are a few trees and the surface rock pack. If subscribing to everything is too much, you only need these two trees and the map will still look good:

• Scots Pine 3
• Small Tree Cluster

Screenshots were taken with the following:

Map theme: Not So Rocky Hills
LUT: Relight – Relight Film

The following mods that affect graphics were also at play for the screenshots:

• Shadow Strength Adjuster – set to ~75%
• Sun Shafts
• Dynamic Resolution – 200%
• CubeMap Replacer – Approaching storm
• Cloud and Fog Toggler – everything disabled
• Tree LOD Fix – Ultra

I am building a city on this map on my YouTube channel. The playlist for the builds can be found here: Thando Series. Whilst there, feel free to explore the rest of my channel 😉

I hope you enjoy building your own city on this map. If you like the map and want to see more maps, please give it a rating. It really helps get the map noticed by others, and it motivates me to keep creating.

Happy building!
