That's the map I'm working on now:
Sure it's enough for north. But do you think it should be expanded east till India?
Small example:
The only problem on map now is coastline.
But some weird glitches may appear on battle map.

That's the map I'm working on now:
At least until we get a good representation of Persia. No need to show any part of India. Just the surroundings (before Indus).
Weird!! Why does that happen?
That is really weird!!! How can it be solved?
Re: Map Size Poll
Interesting. I haven't yet checked my expanded map for battlefield view... I wonder what glitches will I have :)
My guess is there's something wrong with your heights map. Check rgb values for places with glitche, maybe they're off by a bit...

Hey Dead Moroz!!
Your pm box is full, so i post it here:
I have it confirmed. It's the heights map. Here's the proof:

After editing map_heights.tga:
Pay attention to heights and roughness maps! They're more important than it may seem.

Re: Map Size Poll
I think that's expanded enough east. Parthia won't have to be some tiny fringe country. While I'd like to see it east to the Indus, this will do excellently, I think. How many provinces will we be able to have? I'd like to see the Scottish province divided in two in later updates, as well as Hibernia, but once the more important provinces are in place (such as a further divided Britain, Germania, Gaul, and Iberia).

Re: Map Size Poll
IIRC, about 200 provinces can be in the game. No problem for Hibernia.

Re: Map Size Poll
I have the same experience. My coastline looks much more better now. But it seems that the biggest thing we can do with these glitches is to make them very small, almost invisible. They are not disappears completely. The coastline looks ok on south - south-west - west - north-west sides, but there are small asperities on north - north-east - east - south-east sides. From your pic I noticed that you have the same problem. So far I don't know how to fix it.Hey Dead Moroz!!

Re: Map Size Poll
This is wonderful news then. And Dead Moroz, what is the city in Scotland going to be? And how many total provinces will we be able to have?
I understand it isn't the elimination of error, but, the errors are nearly infintesimal, and that's great.

Re: Map Size Poll
BTW, how is the new map working with Radar Map? I noticed that there may be problems with it. I'm afraid if we expand it any further, some areas will not be available via Radar Map, and you'll have to move there manually by scrolling...not to mention you'll loose quick track of what's going on at the edges of your Empire...

Re: Map Size Poll
"Test 1"I need the proper name. And many other things too. I'll make separate post about it soon (when finish the map).
200
Yes.
Re: Map Size Poll
I managed to almost fix this problem. Now there are only very small asperities seen in close view. From "the bird's-eye view" all looks perfect.
Think it's fixable. Need to proper adjust map_roughness.tga.
When I finish the map I will need help of testers to see if there any glitches remains. Who want to participate?
Re: Map Size Poll
Who doesn't?
I think everyone in the gameplay testing group will want to test it...
