Description This will probably be my last map for a little while. With the holidays just around the corner, and my desire to play the game. I'm satisfied for now with the maps I've made and shared. This is just a small mountain region next to a great lake I made, for the sole reason to build small rural towns. I wanted a map with snow peaked mountains, next to bodies of water with mostly flat land. So I took one part of The Andes mountain height map I had, and quickly added some lakes and rivers. Plus a new random name. The rivers are wide, since I usually add smaller ones with mods. There's 9 Big, 38 Medium, and 40 Small city squares by default. For a total of 87. I included an alternate SC4M file in the zip (Gravenford Mountains_LRG.SC4M), if you just want all large cities. These are the texture mods I used in the screenshots. In vanilla it looks pretty much the same, just without the snow. (I'm too lazy to render the whole region again) PEG MTP Terrain Mod 2 PEG ROCK MOD 1 (use Gray Granite) PEG WATER MOD Brigantine Installation The file is in SC4M format. So you will need SC4 Mapper to install. Enjoy!

Description This is another randomly generated region using perlin noise. The land is mostly flat, with subtle hills and large bodies of water. This region is larger than the last one I uploaded (2049x2049 vs 1025x1025). There's 52 Big, 38 Medium, and 40 Small city squares by default. For a total of 130. I included an alternate SC4M file in the zip (Costine Rii_Large.SC4M), if you just want all large cities. Installation The file is in SC4M format. So you will need SC4 Mapper to install. Enjoy!

Description I decided to try something different. This is a randomly generated region using perlin noise. I like building cities with subtle hills, layered like the old SimCity 2000 & 3000 games. But SC4s landscaping tools can be a pain to work with. So I tried to recreate that, but with SC4s more organic look. I'm happy enough with the results. Once I dialed in the workflow, it only takes about 20 minutes to create a new region (15 with coffee in my system). Now you can build roads up and down hills without looking weird. There's 12 Big and 16 Medium city squares. For a total of 28. Also the region name is randomly generated. Installation The file is in SC4M format. So you will need SC4 Mapper to install. Enjoy!

Description This is part of the The Andes mountain range. In the northern area of Chile, on the west coast of South America. Created from high resolution height map data. The map is rotated 90 degrees. Just because I think it looks better this way. Due to the high elevation, the only water on this map is on the coast line. There's 64 Big, 20 Medium, and 16 Small city squares. For a total of 100. Most of it is pretty flat in the center, with some coast line I'm sure you can build on. Installation The file is in SC4M format. So you will need SC4 Mapper to install. Bonus! I recommend these texture mods below. If you want the region to have some nice snow capped mountains. PEG MTP Terrain Mod 2 PEG ROCK MOD 1 (use Gray Granite) PEG WATER MOD Brigantine Enjoy!

Description I made this while learning how to create SC4 regions using high resolution heightmap data from real world locations. This is most of the Grand Canyon, USA. I think it came out pretty good, and decided to share it. I did a little extra tweaking to make sure the river runs all the way through the canyon. It's not 100% accurate, but close enough. And making sure the region has enough buildable surface in every city square. There's 20 Big, 16 Medium, and 8 Small city squares. For a total of 44. I made sure there is varying levels of landscape to build on. With some being relatively flat and easy, and others not so much. Installation The file is in SC4M format. So you will need SC4 Mapper to install. Enjoy!
