If you don't wish to use either of these files, then leave it on default, and you can modify the map to however you'd like. Then, select 'Config.bmp' and click on the '.' button, to grab the appropriate configuration file. It's best if you keep this in an easy to access folder, such as your Downloads, or Region folder. Use SC4Mapper, then select 'Create Region', then click on '16 bit png'Īfter, hit the '.' next to 'Filename', and search for the image. Select which configuration image you wish to use, and edit it to: Sadly, I'm not so skilled in terrain/heightmap editing to be able to correct this for you, but, do feel free to adjust it to your heart's content. This may annoy some, as you might like having the really tall mountains, but, may make others happy. So, for those wishing to have more room in the original region, this one's for you.Īn unfortunate side effect to the doubling, however, is that the hills and mountains become stretched out, and thus a bit smoother overall. The doubled size allows for considerably bigger cities and more development within the same region as before. This was originally reversed via the SC4Mapper by exporting the file image, and then doubling the image size to achieve a bigger region. This is the default Maxisland Region scaled up 2x. Have fun building the city maps up to what you want them to be and remember that if you think the region's name is stupid or you want to call the region something else, you can go into the config.ini file and write it where it says Hearts and rename the folder to the same name. YES, it's hearts! It is a tribute to those who created the 'Land designer' program which can be downloaded here on the Simtropolis website. I could have chosen that the entire center was only large (blue) city cards or only medium (green) or even small (red), but I chose a mixture as it makes the most sense when building the cities. This is again made on the largest card format that can be used (4097x4097 'and not as I wrote earlier in the other uploads 4095x4095') I looked this time for what it was 'laughing'. Thank you very much for your downloads of my modest regional maps. Because you are so nice to download my regional maps, I have chosen to upload one last one this weekend.
