Problem with Imported Regions

    I haven't played SC4 in a while, but decided to come back the other day! I wanted to play on a new map that I never played before so I downloaded some from STEX. Everything seemed fine, but when I import the regions, I get this odd blue line at the bottom of my large regions. It doesn't appear in anywhere but region mode, but it's awfully ugly! I tried multiple maps, tried different file types to import, and tried the SC4Terraformer program. Nothing seems to be working. I don't have this problem with non-downloaded regions.

    I'm running SC4 Deluxe for Windows and here's an image of what it looks like:

    Try reducing your resolution while you are importing the map.  I believe that it will work in any standard resoltuion up to 1280x1024, but you can try 1024x768 if that doesn't work.  Also, don't do anything else on the machine until the import is complete, since the game requires the video card for the import.

    Ah, file that one under "why didn't I think of that?" Even after I rendered the map, saving a city in 1024x768 fixed the line. Thanks for the advice!
