These looked great to me, except like the boardgame map, I have trouble discerning between forest and jungle.
Yeah. Jungle is problematic. It's basically a forest, but a different kind of forest. I'll have to see if I can come up with something better in the future.

Shellshock - do you have the file for the rippling sand? I think I like it.

No problem. I just gave you your own Orange [8D] bar on the download site if you wish to try it out. Since you already have the other files you just need to put the new desert bitmap file in your Terrain Bitmap folder, and put the new Coastal Page bitmaps 4 to 8 in your Coastal Bitmaps folders. They're the only coastal hexes pages that have desert terrain. Anything north of the Page 04 bitmap doesn't have any.

If you see any anomalies or problems with it let me know. [:)]

Like the textures you put into the various terrain. On my monitor things were just a little to green.
So i played around with the jungle, forest and clear terrain.

Olive drab was added to the jungle. Brightened the forest, and lightened the clear terrain.
Also found the minor ports to easy to miss with the light blue. Especially when they are in the water. Made them more white.

Yes! Feel free to experiment with it. I find I'm still tinkering with it myself. At the end of the day I think it all still beats the 4th edition map from 1989 with the plain white clear terrain [:)] (although at the time I thought that map was awesome)

Looks good, but I have trouble with the islands to the northeast as to whether they are all jungle.

I know. Thanks goodness for the mouseover feature which will tell you defintively. I guess I could revert to my clever scheme of planting a palm tree on every jungle island, but the overall effect would be cartoony. [:D]

Masters of blending into the background terrain those canny Brits. [;)]

They make for awesome ink. [:D]

This mapmod looks really neat but the link is long gone it seems. Anyone have it saved somewhere?

Does the attachment above not contain the graphic mod? I was able to download that (i.e., "Alpinebitmaps.zip")

It does include the alpine hexes but not the rest of the hexes mentioned in the first post.
