European Map Required
Detailed Europe Map
I need a detailed 256*256 map of Europe, which is detailed with correctly placed Rivers + Mountains, so that all major rivers, ignoring their tributaries are on the map.
Doesn't need to have Africa, but doesn't matter too much either way.
Needs some space to the Top Left, or a certain location if possible. Needed as soon as possible.
You'll get full credits for the Map Design in the Map itself, as well as some Minerals if thats what you want...

Great, you get the idea right? Basically i want it looking as real as possible, like i know hte Rhine goes right through central Europe and all that...

Do you have any special Tileset in mind?
Report, edit, etc...Posted by BeeR_KeG on 2004-09-26 at 16:56:03
Here's a suggestion that I always use while making my maps.
- I take a square piece of paper and I draw the map on a scale.
- Pre-Place the map as all water, then do the coastlines and put everything else and one type of terrain.
- Then do the rives
- Then the mountains
-Afterwards do the different types of terrain(Dirt, grass...)
I would do it for you, but I probably won't have Sc until Saturday and you need your map quite fast.
BTW: Didn't you retire from Sc because some family member messed up your pc?

I got a new PC, which meant everything was a lot faster! Therefore it had to come back on...didn't it!
Tileset, although Jungle isn't hard to do, i'd love it in another format;
NOT
Badlands
Magma
Desert
Space
YES
Jungle
Ice
Choose one or the other, either you make it or find an existing map and edit to as good as perfection as possible, and that'll be fine. All i need is the terrain, no edits to names, or anything! Want as little string usage as possible.

Cool a new PC!
Anyways if no one makes you a map before Saturday, I'll start making mine.
Heres a sugestion for anyone making a map.
Make it in Ice and pre-place europe as grass.
Then make the mountain tops filled with snow and parts of Scandinavia and Russia in snow to make it more realistic.

Thats what i was thinking of, and please note; although you could be nice and place certain towns on the maps with doodads it isn't required, i am not using Doodads, i'll be using Barracks and other structures to represent places.

I already have one of those. It's based off of Fenix's European terrain for Blood & Iron: Europe 1870 - however, since his map was locked, I had to create the terrain myself using the bmp... the hard terrain (eg, NOT raised jungle and the trees) are the exact same. It fits this description very well.
The original terrain was Diplomacy: High Octane, but that was only because it was the closest. And it wasn't all that close.
It shouldn't take much to modify, if necessary. Jungle terrain, btw.
PS: If you're looking for city locations, I'd be more than willing to show you the map that I made from this terrain. It contains many major cities.

BMP2Sc won't work since it dosen't make mountains.
Mbp works on square terrain and if Coko want reality diamond terrain is needed.

Thank you very much, a sound map, yes if you could give me some "City Locations" it will be of use, an interesting view on the map, likely i'll make little changes to it, by on the hole, just what i wanted.
Your be in the credits, unless you don't wish to be.

Will do! I'll put in Barracks for cities, since they're the units used originally to represent cities, as well as the locations with the names. These are only major cities, however, if you want minor one's you'll have to put them in yourself. The time era for them is circa 1900. I had to get out the atlas for a few of the names, but I think it'll be worth it.
And yes, I'd appreciate it very much to be in the credits. Montgomery[NN] is my B.net tag.

Come to think of it, to use BMP2SCM correctly, you could do a 3 colored BMP map of Europe, then use the water terrain for the water color of europe, jungle tile for the mainland color, and brown tile for the mountainous regions. From there edit in all the details!

Except he doesn't have to anymore, since I found him a nice map.
BMP2SCM to me is a really buggy, redundant programme.

I've done some interesting modifications for one version of your map. It is now turned on its head. Water has become Bottom Terrain, and Land High Terrain, while mountains are just impassable Terrain. It's made it more fun to edit with it now.

Wow, that's pretty crazy. Could be interesting to make a land/sea unit system like that, actually.

Indeed, thats why i did it, plus i can bring in the ability of higher and lower terrain, so that units cannot be brought to wrong areas.
