I don't have problems talking about favelas, it's part of our reality down here and pretending they don't exist won't make them disappear...

Anyway, we're talking about amazon forest maps here so there will be small villas and towns, totally different from big cities favelas.

WRT texture palettes, I suggest we create at least one with some specific typical and very common brazilian textures, like rooftops:

asbestos: http://www.brasilit.com.br/produtos/telha_ondulada.php
backed clay / ceramic: http://www.telhaodeitu.com.br/produtos_telhas_barro.php
plastic: http://www.fortlev.ind.br/produtos/m...=18&cd_site=13
zync: http://www.andres.ind.br/prod_5.htm

These would be reused a lot in most houses and buildings.

I found here some textures for rooftops, not sure if they're of good quality though:

I believe he tried to say that "Brazilians like to talk about favelas as much as Americans like to talk about 9/11"

back @ topic: The statics look good though dont they look a bit "urban" for the Amazon forest?

believe it or not there are some sort of civilization on the Amazon, we're trying to represent a village, or small city or whatever you like to call it.

the Map called Marechal Thaumaturgo, will be a mix of forest, city, village, so we need some "urban" statcis too.

I see... I was under the wrong impression about the Amazon then

Many people, including some brazilians, think Amazon is a big chunk of the map populated only by trees and such. :P
