Rivers finished. Gonna work on the last few buildings then move on to the saloon building.

I've picked out some of Favoured Flights Mountain units for use as, you guessed it, mountains! The next step is to start using the extra tiles gained from the mountain and hills terrain2 tiles.

Anyone want to give me a suggestion as to what I can use them for? Besides one or two large buildings?

Update!

Got the map done and have started placing buildings and the mountains. I also have started assigning terrain values. More to come tonight!

Looks really nice!

Maybe the buildings could stand out a bit more against their background??

How did you get the mountains bigger than 1 tile?

They are multi-cell graphics by Favoured flight - see his Lord of the Rings scenarios.

Thanks guys. I'll keep posting as I go.

I just overlayed them on the "road" tile for the time being. I'll make them stand out more later.

And yes, Favoured Flight's tiles do rock, and they are multi tiled units.

I'll try to work on it some more this weekend.

Guys, tell me what you think of the border. To much? I can try to reproduce a decent wood design, but it'll take a bit.

The border looks nice, but I think you should drastically reduce the contrast, and either decrease or increase the brightness a lot. I tried it in PSP, decreasing contrast by 60% and de/increasing brightness by 60%. That will make it much less intrusive and make the titles actually readable...

And could you by any chance change the hue of those riverstones to the same color as that of the mountains?

I might, but then there might be a bit to much brown on the board. I'll think about doing.

Ok, here's another border, one with regular contrast, the other with darker contrast.

I could always replace the Text color with another, perhaps brighter color, but then I'd be opening up a can of worms...

I like brown.

I don't really like it when borders get too obtrusive, they're only borders after all. I think I prefer the lighter versions, the darker ones contrast too much with the bevel.

But they certainly look good.

Update!

"Flags" almost done. Just gotta get one more drawn. You will really like these.

Working on the Game.txt file, filling it with Western speak. Fun stuff.

Filling up the map with mountains and prairies and the like, little by little. It's starting to resemble Montana.

More coming later.

@Harry Tuttle:
hey, guy, really nice borders, and GREAT western River !!!

Thank you. The river needs some touch up in the connection department though. Something for later.

Ok, as talked about previously with Boco and I, I'm going to create a spreadsheet that defines the pixel size and purpose of all the DLL gifs that can be used in a scenario. I'm going to stay away from the beginning game and world creation DLL's as they are not really necessary for a scenario's atmosphere. But I will map out the throne room, the city view, the city report window backgrounds, the spaceship, and the ending conquered civ ones.

Since I plan to change some DLL's I might as well do something for everyone.

TTYL....

Good idea! If you can, it'd be a good idea to make a comment about or link to the palette. Some of those DLL GIF's have strange ones. IIRC, substituting other palettes can have funny results.

Hmmm, will do. It looks as if the "real picture" gifs are just regular gifs, but I may be wrong. I'll fire up PSP and take a look.

This is actually quicker than I thought. I should have something tonight. Thank god for rainy days.

Bizarre... Anyone ever notice the French Female diplomacy mural in the back being the same as the Greek diplomacy mural?

Same thing for the male mural. It's the same as the Greek one. Hmmm... Buggy!!!

Maps done. These two are only 95% of the map. There's a bit more to the west.
