Map Details and Information

 

The Dragonmounts are an oddity in mountain range formation as no geological reason can be found to explain why the mountain ranges are shaped like the skeletal remains of some giant dragon of eons past.  They were not created by volcanism, or techtonic plate movement as no volcanic peaks exist within the range and there are no major faultlines in the area.  Map is pure fantasy as is a rough copy of an old Dungeons and Drangons map I drew some years ago when I had the roleplaying bug in the 80's-90's. 

 

Map Specifics

 

Map Type:  Fantasy

 

Region map size: Map is configured for 154 large city tiles and is 11x14 in size.

   

config.bmp size: included with zip file

   

Dependencies:     Either SC4 Mapper or SC4 Terraformer for importing.

 

 For custom snow height, replace Columbus Terrain Mod file included in package

 

Install/Uninstall Instructions

 

Installing the Map   

 

To install SC4M map file:

 

1. If you don't already have SC4Mapper, download it here and follow the install instructions.

2. Unzip this file.

3. Run SC4Mapper, click on 'create region'

4. Choose SC4M

5. Browse to the unzipped folder and point the map file .SC4M

6. Click on 'Save Region' and name it, and Quit SC4Mapper

7. Run SC4 and load the new region. The colors of the region in SC4 will be the same colors as SC4Mapper until you enter and save each city tile. But you have the choice to do it as you go and not right away.

 

SC4Terraformer

1. Create a new region folder in your Plugins\Region

2. Copy my config.bmp into the folder and overwrite the old one. (make changes to config.bmp file now if you want)

3. Open the new region you just created with SC4 Terraformer

4. Click on Import Image in the Global Tools Menu and browse for the my file Saunders Lake 1.SC4M

5. When file is imported click File - Save (the region is now saved to SC4

6. The colors of the region in SC4 will be the same colors as SC4TF until you enter and save each city tile. But you have the choice to do it as you go and not right away.

Start opening tiles!

 

Any comments and feedback welcomed. Thanks for looking and enjoy.
