Baelish Posted January 19 Report Share Posted January 19 I want to share with you my entusiasm for my new work. It will take very long time because it's a huge project and I'm at the beginning but I'm really happy and I hope that you will like it. It was very difficult to preserve proportion and I based the heighmap on sinusoidal projection. Sadly It's impossible to include Antartica, I think that It would be amazing to build a civic center there. In the end, I want to ask an aid to map artist to improve the final result, because I'm not so creative. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baelish Posted January 22 Author Report Share Posted January 22 If someone want to help me, please reply in this chat: I want to share files here or on github, because I have problems with texture colors 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baelish Posted January 31 Author Report Share Posted January 31 (edited) Spoiler Just to update you. It's still WIP, because I want to make texture more detailed and these colors are only a sketch. I accept all advises about colors and height changes, so I can change now before I add entities. Edited March 13 by Baelish 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I accept all advises about colors and height changes, so I can change now before I add entities. What map size are you using? It doesn't seem big. With a bigger map you can have more details (chili for example is uninhabitable), and players will have more build space, because some spots don't have alot of space to build (with in mind that tree's etc still need to be placed). You can also look into generating a map from height terrain map data, it'll basically sculpture the terrain based off of real data. Obviously a bigger map also means more work but you can have some cool results. Up to you ofcourse. EDIT: I just noticed in your OP that you were using heightmaps already, lol.

Baelish Posted January 31 Author Report Share Posted January 31 Map size is giant and almost all the map is buildable. Despite that some countries are too small, as Cuba or Italy. I tried to import an heighmap bigger than 512x512 but Atlas editor crashed Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baelish Posted February 15 Author Report Share Posted February 15 (edited) There are some islands, Borneo or Sumatra, that are full of wood, but you can't build a civil center on these ones. You can build a dock and gather the wood. It's to help Australian player, that has less available resources. EDIT: for the same reason I make Australia a bit bigger. I replace here the new file. Chile is too small and I implemented it with the latest update because you could access to Pacific Ocean only from North and Central America and it's unfair. You CAN'T go through tropical rain forest with assault sieges and elephants. It's not a bug, it's a feature World.xml World.pmp Edited February 16 by Baelish Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
