Looking good, mate!
i've actually been busy earlier today fixing up some coastline errors on some of your other maps - think it was Morocco , Red Sea, one of those - some of those maps are pretty awesome, i must say!
On another note, check PMs - i need a bit of advice... :wink:

That's a nice compliment, but I wouldn't waste any more time on those tryout maps. They were just to see how things worked, how to get a map set up for further work. I was so happy to even be able to fly around in them ...

I know there were a lot of errors in those first startups. Mostly it had to do with using different map pixel sizes ...

Anyway, with more experience on maps behind my belt, I've in the meantime done some more startup maps, of Morocco too. And this one is far better in all respects. I can send it if you wish, but I still need to assign the terrain textures first.

You have no idea how wonderful it is to be able to make your own map. The world has become my playground ... ha ha. From Tierra del Fuego to the Aleutians and over the Nile delta, the wilds of central Asia, the Caucausus, the Soviet Far East, the jungles of Mozambique and the barren Hejaz ... all have become accessible. And many have the most beautiful landscapes I've yet seen - Tierra del Fuega and Mozambique take the prize so far.

The only real work is placing objects ... I wish I had a clue on how to work with the actors.static tool, but so far all I know how to do is make a template, copy/paste and fiddle around a bit ...

Works for small maps or sparsely populated ones, but not for large maps.
