Still progressing the map_c.tga file which provides a template of coastlines and rivers.
The size of this file is increasing fast as more detail is put into it. I'm wondering if I will hit a wall with this at some stage, but so far it still load in FMB ok.
Thanks to the anonymous donor who has sent some superb historical information for Belgium and Holland. This will be invaluable in developing the map.
A quick diversion to make the map_F.tga file using the map_c as a template.
Here is map_F.tga, which paints in the distant views. I thought it also placed the forests since there are tree textures on the original, but perhaps it only controls "Far" views because I've still got a forest growing in the Scheldt Estuary. I expect that will sort itself out when I do map_T.
Am I right?
Skunkmeister has volunteered to knock up a map_h.tga so we should have that soon as well.
Many thanks Skunkmeister
