Greetings to my fellow SimCity 4 fans!
Today I bring you my take on the Kanto Region, Pokémon style. This map contains a rotated view of the real
Kanto Plain in the southeast corner of the island of Honshu, Japan. The topography of this map is compressed,
such as to not compromise the quality of the lowlands and to avoid excessively elevated highlands. The map
is not intended to accurately represent the Japanese Alps or Mount Fuji. Players can enjoy a map measuring
73.728km X 63.488 km, or 72 X 62 small city districts. The config was optimized for the placement of cities,
towns and landmarks in accordance to how the Kanto Region is laid out in the Fire Red / Leaf Green Pokémon
videogames.
The download includes two sets of files:
* A set of files for the SC4M file, which requires either SC4 Terraformer or SC4 Mapper to open and
render. To get it, visit the SC4 Devotion LEX to download the programs if necessary, links provided:
Terraformer: https://www.sc4devotion.com/csxlex/lex_filedesc.php?lotGET=731
Mapper: https://www.sc4devotion.com/csxlex/lex_filedesc.php?lotGET=2880
* The other set is for in-game rendering using an 8-bit grayscale image. For proper rendering, players
must use beskhu3epnm's High Elevation Import Mods w Erosion Control parameters, namely the 1000m plugin
with the desired erosion level (I'd recommend either the no erosion or the quarter erosion (QE) variant).
