Progress update. I've been struggling with the object density problem.
map_T has been extensively edited to reduce built up areas, and to more accurately represent 1940 town sizes I guess. Following this some initial slimming of my building template for sk_country_mount has been done which has reduced the template to 75% of its previous size.
Re-populated the map.
Wow! actors.static has been created ok. File size now 10.7MB, but it loads and runs ok in the game.
Total object count is 1.3 million!!!
Here is a shot of the village of Krimpen, with the R. IJssel behind, looking west towards Rotterdam. The whole map now has this density of objects for all the villages and towns.
I now have to go back to map_T and edit in some sk_MidCity areas for dense town/city centres. The object count for this template is the same as sk_country_mount, so it should work ok.
I guess this represents progress of sorts, but still lots to do.
