The face is still a face even this close! XD

Updated the map, and that has appeared to fix whatever bug was making this map not show up in Sol 0 when subscribed.

I subscribed to your map but it did not show up in my list of workshop maps. I have subscribed to other maps and they showed up and I have played some. I tried unsubscribing and resubscribing but that didn't work. I had a friend subscribe but it didn't show up in his list either.

Your map sounds interesting and I am looking forward to playing it if I can.

This new map makes use of many new brushes, textures and hand sculpted monuments sure to please your Mars-loving eyeballs. Great care has gone into recreating the actual location based on NASA imagery.

I recommend using the “Standard Minerals” for this map and not the random mineral generator as many ancient secrets are revealed beneath the surface, should you dare to explore.

How I made this:
The pyramids were each done with separate brushes made in Photoshop and then saved into the “Brushes” folder. The “Face of Mars” was a single brush as well that I fixed up by sculpting in the map builder. The “SECRET” thing in the South West was hand painted in Photoshop, saved as a PNG in the “MapTextures” folder and then painted onto the surface–the topography height(3D) of the secret thing was painted by hand in the map editor, which worked better than a custom brush I had created for it's height map.
