Tahonga
Heya and very welcome to the beatiful landscape Tahonga.
This map is made with a thought , a pearl for the eye.
———————- IMPORTANT – COLLECTION IS ABOVE THIS TEXT – DONT MISS IT ————
So the map demands a small collection of custom assets, and to get it to look similar to the screenshots, oh well then you gonna need some mods, as lucky we are the very kind otter minbonbon shall teach us what we need to set those graphical mods too and also what LUT we gonna use for the best looking landscape….for all likes that comes to the map, he gets a bonus salmon for his work, so please for his sake, do not forget the like button.
THE MAP
Map is made with a custom theme, the theme is included in the collection above this text, its a one click collection , so it will be easy to get all things needed for a cool experience.
Map uses 5 road connections , 4 flight connection, 2 shipping and 3 rail.
I planted 247.600 trees on the map, please forgive me , actually I left the start tile with much fewer trees.
Also on the edges there are no trees or very spare, thats because I recommend to run this map with fog settings on. It is also to avoid getting to much trees on the map.
THE THEME
Textures for oil and ore is made as farmland , you can use several ways to paint over this, one thing is to use surface painter mod, another is to use sand on some parts.
There are much farmland on the map, you can also use a mod to remove this texture from some parts of the map, a list of useful mods will be listed in the end of those instructions.
THE CREATORS
Ecania made the terraforming and planted all trees, sorry…..Arisandi did of cuz made the interchanges and also plotted down the little rail intersection…..Sidai is this maps quality controller and found a ton of small things that needed to be adjusted , thank you guys……..
NOTE
The creation of this map started in late October 2018 right after Sawana Lau Islands was released, I felt I needed to make another version without those farms at the Sawana map and also try to make a pearl for an eye map without to many resources, wich is a challenging mission for a creator , I also wanted to make it more natural of reality, well there are still some waterfalls, but more natural then fantasy I hope , It tool me a huge amount of time to get some ideas and energy to make a fitting theme for this map, but with the help from great people in this community I suceeded at last to find the theme I needed for this creation, you know who you are and Im very grateful for the textures needed to get this done.
ASSETS
Trees use by Mr Maison and Lost Gecko
HighwayBridges by Kaeru教信者
Rail viadukt by ArkenbergeJoe – Many thanks guys.
Now a small list of useful mods , but know that you dont need those to play the map, most of those is for better graphics , or you want the map shiny as the screens, but you can use other luts also and settings.
