Much appreciated.
I don't know if there are many other users here that would appreciate the same, if there are please comment also, but would it be at all possible to create a SMMH compatible flat map? I am not a particular fan of the bumpy map, it's made me cringe since the first dev diaries for CK2. There are flatmaps out there that work for Vanilla so it is theoretically possible, but I am not aware of any that is HIP compatible. Please tell me if you are aware of such. Thanks.
Plus one...
I'll just quote in bulk.
It's alternate files, so if you don't want to change brightness or whatever to B, then you don't need to use it and use the one that arrives by default in C, so it really shouldn't be anything anyone but those supports of B would need to appreciate.
Regarding flat map, it's definitely possible and easy, just not pretty with current textures IMO. I will not be turning LTM into a flat map because I don't want to take that turn and I don't think most users do neither. However, that being said, I can include some basic alternate 'flat map' files in C, but the textures will be ugly without height on the map IMO.
Glad you took out the caravan route thing in Africa and the Middle East. Consistent with the direction SWMH is taking. I think removing the caravan routes was sort of in the team's to-do list, but it never actually reached the table.
Not sure what your point is. Caravan roads on terrain map is something totally disconnected to the province setup, it was there even before some provinces where added.
I think it was done as a sort of trade routes, before trade routes entered the game. But i'm not even sure anymore. Perhaps Aasmul can set the record straight
Right, my comment had nothing to do with province removal. I should have specified what I was talking about. I was referring to "oasis" provinces, which, along with the caravan route, was something that the SWMH team considered cool at first but now looked like artificial features. So there was a talk to do away with both oasis provinces and caravan routes. If I recall correctly, that is.
ok. Routes looks nice however
Uh, remember that those screenshots had deserts 'bleed' into the hill terrain (fixed now though)? Trade routes were made out of hill terrain so they're not really gone just not visible... but you want them gone?
Could also be done with different textures, hmmm, maybe plain desert textures but with camel art on top. I did like some of the map art in ck1.
