Lake Chelan

a map by: blunder

 

Map requested by: Simcoug

-------------

Description:

 

This map is 18km x 8km (and has a bit of a funky config.bmp, i'll admit). It is projected from 1/3 arc DEM satellite data and is scale accurate. However, there are some minor flaws with the coastline (this was my first time doing water on satelite imagery and I made a couple mistakes. *cough*Manson*cough*) Obviously the terrain has been lowered to make the lake's surface elevation game water elevation.

 

I HIGHLY recommend using Lowkee's most excellent terrain mod over at SC4D to play on. Also HIGHLY recommended is using shocktherapy's Bringantine 2.0 HD water mod.

 

-------------

Installation:

This map is in .sc4m format and requires either Terraformer or Mapper to import.

 

1. Navigate to your Documents/SimCity 4/Regions folder and create a new folder with your desired region name

2. Copy+paste the config.bmp file into the folder you just created.

3. Open SC4TF, open the new region, import the .sc4m file, save and quit.

4. You must open and save each tile for it to display your terrain mod instead of the terraformer/mapper elevation color overlay.

 

Please see map thread at simpeg if you have a request (and be sure to check the request guidelines at the top please).

 

Thanks for looking and enjoy.

Good morning Blunder,

Those maps look really pretty nice, congratulations !

Just a small suggestion about your preview map : could you resize it a bit smaller ?

Keep up the great work !

Thanks guys!

Good suggestion, Izi, I'll do that from now on. I've been lazy and just using the raw .jpg from region census. :)

Hi Blunder,

Just for example, my pictures are always 800 pixels wide.

Keep up the 1/3 Arc stuff !
