Highland Fjord Temperate Version
This is the Temperate version of the original map found here: http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=430690083
A little bit of Norway. A wee bit of Scotland. A whole lot of scenery.
Real hightmap painstakingly altered to provide 360 degrees of realistic, beautiful background scenery every way you turn, as well as a pleasant, very playable main game area with some interesting terrain features.
Much more than just a map!
– Center play areas smoothed out for lots of useable space
– Several overlook hills in main play area to perch a castle, statue, or whatever else you dream up!
– Airplane flight paths are programmed so planes circle over the main play area. Click follow on a plane, go to camera mode and enjoy the sights!
– Trees concentrated only in central valley play area to
1) be easier on your computer’s graphics
2) simulate the look of rugged highland areas
3) leave free TONS of space until you reach the "maximum number of trees" (map has 40,500 out of a max of 250,000). Go ahead, place lots of trees! They can help make windy mountain roads and hilltop villages look great!
– Plenty of room for those who use the standard 9 square areas! Users of "all areas purchasabl" mods will benefit from the low memory load design and the few additional challenging areas in the perimeter. Several mountain ranges have narrow smoothed valleys allowing winding roads to link to perimeter areas.
Please let me know if you have any input, desired changes, additions, etc.
I hope you enjoy it as much as I am!
