SC4Terraformer, a tool for regional handterraforming

[ChaosEmerald 0]

Something that I think would be really useful for future versions: the ability to ZOOM OUT in the terraformer to view your region as a whole.

EDIT: OH WOW nevermind, you CAN zoom out, I feel dumb now

To fix the "Traceback" errors, make sure you have the MSVCP71.DLL file, according to the readme.

It doesn't matter.  Unfortunately, getting these to run (especially on Vista) seems to be pretty futile.

Is it possible to create your own city borders? How?

I love that SC4T V1.1 works with Vista. Thank you so much. I have wanted this for months, but never checked for a newer version beyond v1.0. I actually posted something a few minutes ago about how I knew Vista was running V1.0 because I could see it indirectly with Aero, but then i thought 'wait i saw a v1.1 on the first page' and that made life happy, so I deleted the post : )

For some reason I can't get it to work. It says something else is useing directX, and to check the logfile. the logfile is empty.. help?

All I really want to do is make a big flat region with custom city tiles. Instead of it being randomized with a few large cities, then I want to manualy terraform it in game. I just want a big region

To be quite honest with you, you'll have a much better chance of getting an answer to your question if you post it in the SC4Terraformer forum at SC4Devotion.

i would like to know this as well. if you create a new region or edit an old one, you can see city borders but not change them. is there any way to change this (especially on new regions)?

[rtil 1]

 

this depends, are u using SC4T, or the old jpeg?

i do know how in jpeg form. there will be a config.bmp file with a map. change the color of the config.bmp to blue in a paint program like microsft paint. any color blue doesnt matter, as long as its a shade of blue, the game will recognize it.

the way it works is this:

blue: large city tiles

green: medium city tiles

red: small city tiles.quote>

ok nevermind, figured that out (although having custom regions with big, medium and small would be cool).

All you need to do is reinstall Direct x 9 It worked for me! :-)

it appears the latest download link is broken

why does a grayscale map take so long to generate in the ConvertIsoclines???

[JamesHP60 0]

I can"t find the link

SC4Terraformer can be found here: https://www.sc4devotion.com/csxlex/lex_filedesc.php?lotGET=731

You need to be registered on the 'LEX to see the download button.

This has got to be the hardest addon program to download ever in the history of man.

 

After a serious couple hours of GoogleFu, I came across That Last Link. It leads to a page with (obviously) no download link but also no link to a home or registration page and, like anyone else new to the scene, I haven't the slightest idea what "the 'LEX" is.

 

Would someone mind spelling out what that is, where it's homepage is and/or how to register?

It is the LotEXchange over at sc4devotion.com - you do not need to register for the forums, just the file exchange, it will be to seperate accounts if you register to both.

I have tried downloading SC4Trraformer from the website 4 times today and each time I got a network error that prevented me from downloading all the way. and incase you guys was thinking yes I am registered on that site so that is not a issue. Is there any other way to get the file? I can not try anymore today. I am running Windows 7 Home Premium 64bit OS, could that be a problem?

been awhile since any posts here, having same old DX error everybody else had, I'm running Win7 DX11 do I need to downgrade of find d3dx9_30.dll  DX11 uses d3dx9_31.dll or is there an upgrade to terraformer past 1.1 to correct this?
