Description

 

This map is an accurately scaled map of Traverse City, Michigan using USGS data. It is the largest city in the 21-county Northern Michigan region. As of the 2000 census, the city population was 14,532 with a 2006 estimate placing the population at 14,407. Traverse City is the self-proclaimed Cherry Capital of the World, holding an annual week-long Cherry Festival the first full week in July to celebrate. Besides cherries, the surrounding Tuscany-like countryside produces grapes, and is one of the centers of wine production in the Midwest. Tourism, both summer and winter, is another key industry. Freshwater beaches, a mild summer climate, upscale golf resorts, vineyards, a nearby National Lakeshore, prodigious snowfall, nearby ski resorts and thousands of square miles of surrounding forests make Traverse City (based on AAA's 2005 TripTik requests) the second most popular tourist destination in the state behind Mackinaw City. The map is 6 x 6 large tiles, has plenty of coastline and lots of surface to build on. enjoy!

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!
