Kamchatmanjaro
a map by: blunder
So i had the itch to create a map recently. This is what came out. This does not represent any kind of return to regular custom content creation for me; this is just a one-off project. Also, because this map is more than 100km on a side I am inducing the Drunkapple Large Map Mercy Rule on showing a fully rendered pic.

Description:
Kamchatmanjaro is ..... well wait; what is this? This is a fantasy map featuring a hodgepodge of different mountains, including:
Kilimanjaro, tallest volcano in Africa
Kliuchevskoi (and it's entire volcanic group) tallest volcano in Kamchatka, Russia
Mt. Fuji, tallest volcano in Japan
Pavlov, tallest volcano in the Aleutian chain.
Water is hand drawn by me.
This map is 108km x 60km and made from 2' aster satellite data, patched with 3' STRM.
Map made using satellite data, image editing software, and drunkapple's invaluable advice.

Installation:
This map is in .png 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 .png 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.
*This map contains high altitude and requires you to have modded your terrain mod to allow a max height of 5000m or greater, or it requires you to have installed a terrain height mod.
**If you want a smaller map that will run more easily on a PC with lower ram, the left side of the PNG can be cropped to provide a map of 60km x 60km that is quite nice too.
