Hello again folks! Though we've had a lot of HotS tilesets in the WTE lately, this week I've got a bit of a surprise for you. One of the mods of these boards, Progammer, has managed to do some creative datamining and extract a tileset from the patch test files that seems to be one created for the now-upcoming "Legacy of the Void expansion". For this week's WTE, we'll use this tileset (that seems to mostly resemble a large in-door Protoss temple) to create something interesting.
Just head on over to the tileset's download page and get to work - I'm curious to see what you guys can pump out with this kind of stuff!
That aside, I'm amazed he was able to find this. It's much better than the Niflheim texture set we got in WoL. I'll try to post a screenshot of my terrain soon. I think it may well be my best terrain yet.

He did announce it was LotV related before 1 April, so it might be an actual tileset datamine? Maybe? What's the rules on preparing an April fool before the big day?
You should actually make a WTE that goes like "LotV tileset prototyping", and have people do tilesets that we could see in LotV. I remember a city WTE recently where some dude made a Protoss city tileset that looked really nice.

Pst, he's actually called Progammer :p

Let this be reminded as the best April Fools trick ever built up on mapster so far...
@Mozared: Go
Those ancient temple columns are pretty badass. Can't wait to see what people can do with em.
@DeltaCadimus: Go
Shush.
@Mozared: Go
Wow, that's awesome! I'll see what I can do with this.
I especially like those cliffs, makes great for a protoss installation type mission.
I expect we'll see some pretty epic terrains from this...
Wow, I can't wait to give this tileset a roll! I might never give it up.
I might give it a shot this week! Great tileset nonetheless.
I was expecting something similar to the HoTs one but man... I will definetly be partaking in this.
@DeltaCadimus: Go
April fools? What the hell are you talking about man? Maybe you're doing something wrong!
The trick was you were supposed to follow the bandwagon...
And now the joke is spoiled...
@yukaboy: Go
I think most people click the link before reading comments anyways...
You make a good point...
But, now that the joke is over, what's the REAL terraining exercise for this week?

I wish we had a leaked tileset =P.
Gonna upload a proper WTE tomorrow.

How did I predict a rickroll?
