Polynesia 2.0 Updated 2021
Miyagi Polynesia Gen II
You can use this theme with any originally tropical map you would like to. This is a complete replacement for the previous Polynesia theme, with all sorts of improvements and fixes. It has been completely remade (because updating the first was not working), now with a few higher quality textures, elimination of problems like that ugly road texture issue and bright gravel issue. thanks to a bit more experience and lots of help from the community. I hope it is nicer, and please do let me know if you have any feedback, it’s a learning process!
UPDATE 9 – Feb 4 2018. New textures: grass, ruined, gravel, ore, oil, water, water foam.
– No more green ruined on sand. (use Polynesia Pure Grass or Surface Painter mod if you want totally green lawns).
UPDATE 8 – Apr 4 2017: No longer needs Daylight Classic to use! Even so, with Daylight Classic it still looks great: it has a deeper green, reminiscent of Moorea. Either way, less eye pain for both vanilla and DC players.
– Total rebalance to vanilla (default) color and lighting.
– Textures improved, adjusted to new lighting and replaced: Wave Foam, Water Normal, Cliff, Cliff Normal, Ruined
– Lighting exposure adjusted to vanilla lighting
– Water color in tropical based biomes is still a major frustration.
Update 7 –
1. Disasters: configured disaster probabilities to match South Pacific region.
2. Visuals, lighting and colors – Currently adjusting colors and light levels to look correct with no mod and no LUT. Please be patient while the transition is in progress, and if you still use Daylight Classic you can experiment with turning off Classic Sunlight Intensity and Classic Sunlight color. Finding a nice LUT can also help.
3. New Water Foam added
Update 8
1. Improvements in cliff texture, 3D normal now matches cliff
2. New ruined texture
2. Ocean color tweaks
