[WIP] Retextured Singapore Map v1.1 - WhiteCat - 29.08.2009

Hello All,

Here is my version of the default Singapore Map, when you install it will replace previous default Singapore load.ini.

I've used some repainted default 4.09b1m textures plus a repainted version of awesome Handy's texture 'Handy Beachmuddy, and the Maraz's mediterranean water settings (hope it's OK)

New in v.1.1: Altered textures & added rice fields.

Known issues (not to be solved as would require complete re-editing of the map):
- There are white sand beaches in Malaysia, but as the default map uses only a texture for all the coast, I felt more right to give the brown color. More correct would be, though, not to have much coastline, as in the wonderful Slot map of the Pacific team.
- The concrete airfields (and obviously the shape) are incorrect, but modify them to grassy-dust airfields implies modify default concrete textures affecting all the maps. Personally, I'm using currently Vpmedia's color of the ground airstrips, that fits very well both with places as different as Malaysia or Germany.

Here are some screenshots:

For enjoying this map I recommend also:

- Full perfect settings
- Jaypack44 Palm textures
- Miker8's wonderful 'Singapore Fighters' campaign (the screenshots above are from this campaign)

Special thanks:
Artists like Handy, Vpmedia, Maraz, Pacific team, which have inspired my map.
Campaign creators like PhilK and Miker8.
AAA community.
Oleg and 1C guys, without them nothing of this would be possible.

Regards, WhiteCat

Thank you very much for your work Whitecat. I hope you will also retexture the other Pacific maps, they really need an update.

Thank you all, really I do it for myself but once done I think it's nice to share it Smile

@ Juri_JS: I thought this was the last one but... check in a few minutes Smile

White cat, it's very, very nice. The only thing that struck me from the screenies is that you may want to put a coastal strip of green or muddy beach along the sea edge of the city to stop the road net coming right out to the coast.

@Mandrill7

Thanks, yes, I know that some of the features of the standard map aren't very realistic but I've decided not to go further than retexturing (not changing the map itself) because lack of time, really. But still, there are improvements that can be made to New Guinea and Singapore maps, in terms of textures. What do you think about my forest textures for Kyushu map? I'm wondering if they look better than my Singapore ones or not.
