Oh! Thanks for that.
And if I use that 16bit grey scale height map, will it be a smooth terrain? or still that ugly horrible terrain?

Also, is there any methods to get larger height maps, I mean, terrain party can only get a 60km x 60km greyscale heightmap. I've seen some huge maps like the UK map and Europe map. How does those makers get that large size heightmap?

P.S. the photo I posted seemed not working

BTW, I downloaded it ...but I cannot find the install thing or the .exe thing....

I was making a map mod, and when I opened it ingame  [Blockierte Grafik: https://drive.google.com/file/…zZUVNU00/view?usp=sharing]
Yuck~Horrible

I use http://terrain.party/ for getting height maps, I now know it's bad quality to import it into TF.
Is there other ways or websites to get height maps of better quality?

hi, I recently made a comment about this problem on my other post, but it seemed forgotten so I make a new post here.

here's a screenshot

And here's the height map : https://mega.nz/#!0xdH3DSZ!Ywx…x3yQSy80q_67JebauPheg35AY
or drive.google.com/file/d/0B7n-Y…JRjBfOHM/view?usp=sharing

And, I can't find a way to solve this, someone(denesberky) has told me this:

"You can try to change the [range = {xxx, yyy }, datas,] to lower the height difference."

However, that will make some areas being flooded.

Is there any other ways to solve? I wanted to post this map out before 2017

You can try to change the range = {xxx, yyy }, datas, to lower the height difference.

But that will make some areas being flooded though.

Zitat von denedberky

Have you placed the towns yourself? If yes, try to change these as well.

So I should reduce the number of them? Or else?

Btw is there any ways to change the map before putting it in game? I mean smoothing terrain, building roads.....etc.

Em..hello, I now have a new problem.

I loaded the map and it went back to "create new game" after a certain time and have an error message of
"Game initialization failed: could not construct street connection" in a red bar.
How can I solve this problem?

Well, great thanks for your reply. I never knew that way before. Btw if I type something wrong, I'm sorry that my English is not good .

About my second problem, I mean that I didn't enable the "no costs" mod, but when I start a new game, I still purchases thing free($0). I've checked my mod and there's no such economy related mods.

[A bit OFF-Topic]
BTW, this forum seems very laggy and slow today( It used 1 minute to load this page)(I'm not using IE)(I'm in Asia, latency problem?),
my security software even once said this website have virus {WTF} then I clicked the "ignore" button, 404 error....

Hi,
I wonder why do we need to load an entire new game for a newly added mod, I mean when I enable a mod and continue a game, It won't appear until I load a new game.
It's kinda frustrating to play with mods with this, with nearly a few good mods coming out each week.
Also, I have no idea that I didn't enable "no costs" mod but other mods that have no relationship with industries or economy, they are just vehicle mods, but I keep playing with "no costs"

Ah! Thanks a lot! I thought the problem is at the "Author" section though, anyway thanks for your help

Thanks for both of you to help me.
The whole Lua error:

File:maps/HKSAR(L)/map.lua

maps/HKSAR(L)/map.lua:63:')' expected near's'

This error is usually caused by modding. The syntax of some game resources is not correct.

and here's the map.lua (I changed it to .txt for uploading):map.txt
BTW, I download the things from the Map Creation Tool and it has been popping out the error before I make any changes to it.

I was making my own map, and this showed up when I clicked "Free Game", lua error : File:------------------(something)------expected near's' . This error is usually caused by modding. The syntax of some game resources is not correct.

Is my cities too near to each other?
Or else? I'm new in modding

Yea, they are unique and a casual way to travel in HK. The star ferry is also a great way to travel ( sadly I have seasickness )

BTW, I've try to learn how to mod but most of those tutorials are in German, that I can't understand ...

hello,

Since I have 0 knowledge in modding, I would like to ask if anyone could make some HK vehicles. These are some vehicles that I hope to be a mod in game(actually some of them are just familiar to me and not only available in asia):

Actually there are more vehicle that I want to include in here but that would be too ambitious
