Canada Summer
Hello Everyone!
This Is Canada Summer
I made this theme to go with some of the remastered European maps that came with the base game and DLC’s. I have always despised the base themes as they all seem stale to me. I especially disliked the European theme thanks to the water looking like sludge. I have never seen water look that dark anywhere in Europe, unless it was next to a dirty/polluted plant/factory.
I do understand that the name of the theme is not European, but hey, it’s what came to mind when I named it!
Please do take note that the sand texture is very white and is supposed to look like snow! If you want snowy mountain tops and sandy beaches, I would recommend using the theme mixer mod. I decided to use snow as sand because quite frankly, putting oil up on the mountain tops seems a bit unfair to me. Oil is a resource and the player should be able to utilize it! So I decided that the sand should be used as snow because of two reasons:
1. Sand has no purpose in the game other than for aesthetics.
2. Sand also has a separate bump map that can be used for more customization, like the cliff textures; the oil and other textures do not have separate bump maps.
Temperatures:
15 – 20 C Day
10 – 17 C Night
12 – 18 C Rain
10 – 18 C Fog
Weather Probabilities:
Day rain – 12%
Night rain – 6%
Day fog – 2%
Night fog – 6%
Northern Lights – 5%
The disaster probabilities are what I would believe they would be in Canada.
Thunderstorm….48
Tornado………….17
Sinkhole………… 33
Earthquake …….67
Meteor strike…..75
Forest fire……….100
Tsunami………….9
The textures are all 1k quality scaled up to 2k to offset tiling, although you don’t notice it at 1k.
The ruined texture is the same as sand, but the alpha channel so dark you won’t even see it on the steepest of cliffs, but is still visible on the network edges.
The pictures were actually taken with a LUT from Relight.
The Relight settings:
brightness – 1.0
gamma – 0.8
contrast – 0.7
