Default Re: re-making mini.map

Actually Gandalf, if you could, make one with about 75% Water and 25% Land and generate a few there, I'd appreciate it. I'm going to make a mostly water map. Though my Gimping is quite amaturish, there has been a small need. As well as maybe some people playing an entire "Water Cult" game.

Gandalf,
I think that there are parts of GIMP1 that could be used for a simple army testing ground. I'm very glad to hear that you are going to right a more complete guide to map modding. I've got an interest in it myself, but like everything else with Dom2, there is a learning curve involved.

Gandalf,
One other thing. The 'links' page you setup for the random maps has some broken links. Specifically to the .zip files (windommap.zip and dommap-win.zip) Also, the new 'prettier' maps page has been moved.

I like the look of Gimp4 the most, myself.

You mean these gimps? Or the random map files?
I can do either one but if I do gimps they wont a map file. I dont have the patience to add that stuff manually in except for the mini-map (6 provinces)
