Campaign map creation

[rich19]

Hello, me again. Does anyone have any tips on campaign map creation? I'm creating an island, and am having problems when it comes to the different size images for regions and terrian. I'm pretty sure that's what is causing the error I am getting, anyway - "error with descr_strat - could not create settlement at line 3113, column 12". I reckon there are discrepancies with the different size images, but it's difficult to get them the same. If I scale one down or up it goes all fuzzy.

Anyone? The error is still "could not create settlement at script line XX." I've also noticed that while map.rwm is appearing every time I run the game, heights.hgt isn't. That might have something to do with it.

did you edit the heights map? that might be it

Yeah, the new province is on an island. It's all one colour though - almost black (I was starting simple). The map roughness i also one colour, again almost black.

Post pics.

What program are you using? I use psp and when resizing make sure I use pixel resize. Using any kind or scaling that blurs is bad

If you want to know the required sizes of the different files, they're there in my camp map tutorial.

I use GIMP. I used a tempory layer with partial transparency to get the things in the right place. Note that the map_reigons.tga is zoomed in 200% so you can see it better.
