Very nice, the forests look good.

Perhaps a thin, pale coloured beach for provinces next to water? If it is doable. Keep the work up, with some fiddling the maps will look very good I think. =)

The forests look good, but unless you change the border color near forested provinces, the borders will be hard to see. Your trees grow closer to each other than the Dom3 ones; making them more sparse would help, but I understood you'd prefer to keep the look of your maps a bit different from the Dom3 maps.

as far as borders on forest provinces go, they are a bit hard to see, but it is going to end up comming down to user prefenerance because sprites are fully modable. i am only using these because it is what i have on hand. if someone were to rip the dom3 map sprites, my generator could use them, or any other sprites for that matter. since sprites are user defined, it is impossible to nail down a good distance to put between sprites in general, so this option will be moddable as well on a sprite by sprite basis

also changin the land/water border to be a light blue should not be too difficult

i'd also like to make a note on the speed of my mapgen vs. the dom3 mapgen. it looks as if mine runs anywhere in the region of 5-10 times faster, though at this point features are comporable.
