MOTD : Map of the Day

[wouanagaine]

Welcome to the Map of the Day thread where I will post a map every day. If I can't post a day, then 2 maps will be post the next day, at least you'll got 7 maps a week

The map will come in 16 bits png which you can use in SC4TF or SC4Mapper. The map will be linked to everyday post ( no need to make the LEX full of maps )

From the title bar, you can see different kind of map, ranging from island to mountainous maps and mandering rivers

I hope you will enjoy this thread and the everyday maps !

[wouanagaine]

So for the first map of the day here is a mandering river

This is a 4x4 big cities map with some very smooth rolling hills and some more mountainous areas with lot of place to build and expand !

I spoke about a link to download the map, to have it in the game. I clicked on the link under the screenshot and I just have got this bigger.

After downloading that png, use SC4TF to generate the region then it can be used in game.

[Sciurus]

Ah, I didn't know that Thank you Renne!

Guillaume.

[wouanagaine]

Thanks for the welcome

So today another map, this one seems a bit more hilly and so will certainly be used for rurality more than for skyscrapper forest

Today's map is an island one with a kind of mountain in its center

This is a 4x4 big cities map, but the 4 corners cities are water only, but there is still some flat land to build and expand on the south of the island

Very nice map, but how do you choose your code names?

Guillaume

[Girafe]

the MOTD is a good idea 
maps are really nice

I wait for moutain map   

[Myself.or.?]

The idea is very good indeed. I especially like todays map, will use sooner or later.

[Lowkee33]

One map a day?  You are too wild.  These maps are terrific.

The links are giving me seemingly black images however.  Is that a problem?  I would expect to see some lightness for the top of the mountains, although I am only familiar with jpeg greyscales.

[wouanagaine]

16bit png are very dark, because the maps  are in the 1000m range, and 16bit can hold up to 6000m

I can provide more than one a day

[wouanagaine]

Today's map is a 4x4 big cities mountaineous one, the highest point is 1800m above sea level

Still it get some place to develop at the bottom of the mountains
