Thanks for the tip, it works now.

Hi, I sort of fixed the problem by checking the DirectX support box, but now when I open the program, THE WHOLE REGION IS BLACK! I don't know what is wrong- please help

works on 64-bit XP once you download MSCVP71.DLL and put it in the same directory as the exe.

is there a way to get the finished region to have terrain colors like that of the stock regions in the region view? thanks!

When loading a region created with SC4Terraformer, it is normal for the terrain colors to show as they do in SC4Terraformer.

You'll need to load each individual city and save it in order for the SC4 rendered region to show the default game colors.

Regards,

Gary

Sorry if I'm digging up an old post, but I'm new and this is the newest place to post a question about this I could find...

I downloaded this earlier today, and I'm having a problem. When I save my region, it just shows up as a giant plain in the game, even though it shows up in terraformer just how I saved it if I load it back. what am I doing wrong?

I have the exact same problem! i to just downloaded. weird. Someone respond to this NOOOOOW!!!!!

I like the tool in general but I find that it takes to long for a mountain to get very high or for a river to be created. Is there a button to make it so the tools work faster and/or in larger areas?

[SC4BOY 20]

"faster" and "larger areas" is covered not only in the doc's but in the examples on that thread.. the answer is "yes"

hey, what about sislo and wolf's problem? you can't just skip them like they don't exist.

[Xascul 7]

i wish to say thanks as well for this, because i have been using for only a few days now, but it is really nice for me to plan everything out ahead of time, i have one minor request. how do you bring up the map in SC4 terraformer? because i can't modd the land and such, but i can't see the general overall, how does one do that?

I downloaded and I am having no problems creating regions, however, I have a question. How am I supposed to turn the small city tiles into to medium cities?

I accidentally closed the brush setting(the window where you can configure the size of the radius, strength, etc.) how can I open it again?

How do I turn a picture into a map?

What happened with the compressor tool in v10c? What can I do instead of using it?

[City Planner 121]

Is there any way to make the drawing screen larger, so that I can get a better overview of my entire map at one time... I know there is the overview screen, but just a tad difficult to keep switching and resizing.

Hello, quick question.

when I run the SC4terraformer.exe it generates an error saying "The folder seems not to be a valid region" Any idea what to do about this?

Thanks for having a look.

[JonatanRaven 0]

I'm getting a weird issue when I'm loading my region in SC4. The whole region is vibrating slightly, making the view kind of blurry.

Any idea what might cause this problem?

EDIT: Never mind, it disappeared. Here's my first attempt:

[omnimutant 2]

I'm trying to uninstall this program and I simply can't. There is no start menu uninstall option. I Can't simply delete to folder because windows will not delete the stupid msvcp.dll, which I didn't need that came with the program anyway. I'm getting kind of annoyed here. I read like 5 pages worth of people saying to uninstall/reinstall the program, but how??? Thanks.

[omnimutant 2]

nevermind my last post. Apparently the process sc4terraformer was still running in the back ground even though The program was closed, which is why i couldn't delete it. It's been nuked now. nothing to see here

Hi,

I'm using SC4 Terraformer to make a large region. Problem is, I can't find a way to turn on full screen, it's greyed out See:

 

I can't drag it to make it larger either. I have 3 1920x1080 monitors (Nvidia GTX 670 2X SLI) and it's a real pain to have such a small space to work on. Does ANY one know how to increase screen resolution?

Thanks!

I know this is an old thread but i wanted to answer this user's question as I had one of the very same.  I've found an app that allows you to resize nonresizable windows. 

 

Tutorial Page http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/11799/turn-non-resizeable-windows-into-rezieable-windows/

Download Page http://www.digitallis.co.uk/pc/ResizeEnable/

 

I can confirm it working, i'm running sc4 terraformer and it has been rezied to fit my 39" TV screen @ 1920x1080p resolution.

 

The only drawback i can find is that the cursor doesn't match up with the brush, so just be wary of that. works great otherwise

I get a splashscreen and nothing
