Description

 

This map is a accurately scaled map of Alpena, Michigan, an area located on Thunder Bay at Lake Huron in the northeastern part of the lower peninsula using USGS data. It is considered to be part of Northern Michigan. The Thunder Bay National Marine Sanctuary is located offshore near the city. The population was 11,304 at the 2000 census, as well as a large population of visitors in the summer. Despite its small population, it is by far the largest city in sparsely-populated Northeast Michigan lower peninsula, serving as its commercial and cultural hub. It is considered to be one of the two anchor cities of Northern Michigan, along with Traverse City. It is 5 x 7 large tiles, fairly flat and has lots of coastline to play. Have fun playing it..

Installation

 

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.

 

To install using 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 my SC4M file.

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!
