I started making this mod so I can better see the difference between heavy and light forests,
but it quickly turned out to be remaking of the worlds so they would be more distinguish and alien to the vanilla.
Which reminds me most of the times of post-apocalyptic earth, rather than weird after apocalypse world.

Also it turned out to be much heavier rework as I thought at first, scratching days of work because it didn't look right[:D]

It takes me quite a while and I'm not really sure when its gonna be finished(I never did this kind of terrain textures before)[:)].
I just wanted to share it and hopefully will upload it someday (sooner than later).
Right now its a huge mess in those folders and I need to do the clean-up first [:)]


so things I did...
light(green/leaf) and heavy forests (blueish pine), woods (I like how the Mroyer terrain mod works with them:) )
making fields to stand out more (Tbh I didn't even notice them in my game until I started modding it[8|].they are very subtle in vanilla)
grassy high and low mountains
(I checked them on various planets and they worked fine)

things I would like to look into
plains (hyperion like sea of grass), deserts, Jungles (albion (1995 game)), savanahs and water tile terrain (in the end).


we'll see how it goes.

That is some heavy forestry on those new planets... Probably no need to design tanks

Not bad.

looks good

Hello

How can we get your mod?

Hi,
its taking me longer than I expected, got some other things to take care[8|]
I wanted to add more stuff I mentioned, but probably will do that later and put the link here as it is[:)]
today or tomorrow hopefully

ok here's the link

Thanks!

Very nice

Interesting ideas, especially the the stronger contrast/color change, it helps reading the map

Looks amazing, i have to test this right away!

This is looking very nice indeed, certainly has that alien feel to it!

Looks great much better than the shrubberiness! Thanks for making!
