To All Aspiring Mapmakers!

[The Swert]

Thanks for the quick reply. Looks like PTI will be my friend

It's me again.

I've been having a look at Kasperus' unfinished MWATK and seeing whether i could make a scenario for it. I ran into a problem right away. It seems as though dozens of provinces are permanently shrouded even though they are not Terra Incognito. There are provinces under there, i can click on them and play normally, i just can't see them because of this shroud. Is this something to do with the lightmaps or the province.csv or what?

Any help would be appreciated.

You cannot run maps in moddir (without some additional work anyway). Make a separate install or use Modlauncher - that one should work fine for mwatk.

Alright got it working. Thanks for that.

I'm wondering if any one could help me to learn about making standard shading on maps!

Any one?

Patrik, you just need to download Xie's action file to Adobe Photoshop. First you run the action called "Create New Shading Set"(It's the last of the four). That will create a new layer folder called "New Shading". Now you run them all, also "Create New Shading Set". And then you have totally normal shading.

Unfortunately, my tutorial likely won't be available on my server, because it's deader than a doornail, but if anybody's willing to host, i'm more than happy to put up the tutorial on other peoples' websites.
