Hi. I was wondering first off how Cori is doing? Lately I had absolutely no free time and Im just doing a quick drop in since I haven't been on the forums at all the past few weeks. And do we know what happened to her? Last I heard all we knew was that she was in the hospital and... not doing well. Also while I'm here, does anyone still use SC4 Teraformer? I'm talking about the regional teraformer in the sreenshot, not the In-game vanilla version. I finally got it working after getting all the .dlls in the right place and now it works for some regions but not others and I can't figure out what the difference is. I was wondering if there was any well known no-no's that the app doesn't like, like certain neighbooring connections or certain mods. Thanks!

I need help with getting terraformer or mapper working on Windows 10
LexusInfernus posted a topic in Mapping Community Room
Ive tried to install Sc4 mapper. It installs just fine, but when I try to create a new region, the thing gets stuck. Using a SC4m file causes a big white screen. If I try using a greyscale, it just gets stuck loading forever. So then I tried installing terraformer. That thing wont even install, I just get an error report. Not even sure what happened there. Can anyone help? -
[SOLVED :D] Problems when rendering a region
peperodriguez2710 posted a topic in SC4 Bugs & Technical Issues
Hello, I don't know if somebody has already solved this problem, sorry if I'm repeating it. Maybe my problem it's created because of a stupid reason, I don't know, sorry I've been creating a custom region using parts of other regions and sculpting in SC4 Terraformer. After finishing it, I created the config.bmp, saved it as a SC4M file, and as a PNG greyscale in the region folder. When I entered SC4, the region was displaying the city borders acording to the config.bmp, and started rendering the greyscale PNG image. When after an hour it finished, the region was all water tiles or land tiles with no elevation changes, completely flat. I tried using .bmp and tried rendering without any open program open or process active at the same time, but results are the same: the region is a flat ocean with sometimes flat land tiles. And I don't think it's the water height problem, because cities are completely flat, and the region has pretty big mountains. I also tried to use a jpeg greyscale, but SC4 didn't read it. (I don't include pics of that flat regions, but I can add them, though I think it's not necessary, my explanation it's exactly what it is) I don't know what to do! Any thoughts? Is the issue realated with the greyscale image (I add it if is needed)? Thanks in advance ^^ -
are the developers aware that the SC4 Mapper & Terraformer do NOT work on Windows 7??? why haven't they released an update??? is there ANY program that WILL work on Windows 7 for mapping???
