The instructions for creating a new region include a part about how to show where the sea-level would be using Photoshop. Here's what it says:

I've been trying to work out whether I can do the same using GIMP, but have not, thus far, found a way.

Any GIMP users here know?

    I've downloaded SC4 Mapper, and it's easy to use it to load up a grayscale image, whereupon it will show the region with sea level added.

    Yep. Lots of peeps love that program. *:yes: And it has the benefit of letting you exceed the 765 meter elevation imposed by 8 bit grayscales.
