Yeah..thought about that Uzin. Thanks!
But this will level all lakes to Height 0.

But in Sveden there are a lot of lakes, that are in the mountains at about 200 m or so..
So this would produce 200m deep holes in the landscape

You can mask the canyons by the procedure discussed here  at SAS - by gaussian blurr of the shores about 10 pixels wide. Instead of searching, you can try this:
1. Open map_H.tga in Gimp.
2. Select water  - RGB=0.
3. Increase the selection by ten pixels.
4. Substract the water - RGB=0 from this enlarged selection. This way you obtain shore 10 pixels wide selected.
5. Gaussian blurr of the selection.
6. Save map_HX+.tga, un so weiter.

Uufflake and farang discussed somewhere here lakes at non-zero height, but it is your choice:
by not having water at zero height, you cannot (in Il2)  place the bridges over such waters.

Maybe I'll try this..It will do it for the lakes in Denmark, Germany and Polan in each case, as the landscape isn't that hiegh (thanks to the ice some phantastillion years ago)

I know the problem with bridges..but there won't be any bridges across LAKES!

Hi!

I have a question - is anyone really familiar with the GIMP program?

I'm just in progress of creating the ed_m01. this time I transfered the wood areas from Google maps into the map, instead of creating own woods.
But now i have a lot of wood areas which are only one up to three or four pixels. I do not want so small woods, as they appear in the map only as dark textures, but not as real woods.

Is there a possibility to mark areas with the same colour, but only at a size of some pixels???
So I do not have to delete every singel pixel?!

Really really interested in this map. I will like to make a post WW1 generic version before you add the WW2 airfields. If you agree of course.

You can try:
1. select the wood by selection tool
2. decrease the selection by one (or more ) pixel (so that small one-pixel areas are deselected)
3. increase the selection of the same number of pixels as in point 2 .

Uzin, you - are - a- genious! .. or a witchmaster..I'm not quiet sure!

Thanks for the help, it worked great!
And it solved another problem.

Hi!

Anyone here who's from Scandinavia..especially Sveden?

Even I know, that Sveden was a neural country in WW2, I'd like to ask for information about airfields in southern Sveden in that days?!

[RealDarko]

Maybe this will help you:

One question, as I told you before and If you don't mind I will like to create a WW1 version of this map, but to save time I will need the definitive populated version without airfields If you can share it.

[Seppel]

Hi!

Sorry, I simply missed your question.

Of course you can have the map as a base for your project, if you find worth it...

At the moment I'm still creating the ed_m01 and fill in locations of the towns and villages.

I'm not quiet sure what you exactly need? Only a texture map or a map allready populated with objects?
If this is so, you'll have to wait a looooooong time

Thanks for the link, I'll have a look!

[RealDarko]

It will be better to have the map with the villages, towns and cities there, once the population is done I will adapt the airfields to WW1 style plus buildings.

[Seppel]

No Problem RealDarko, you're welcome to have it, but as I said, it will take its time...

Oh, thx for the airfield information!
Although a lot of them are outside the map, the information about the rest are very useful!!!

[RealDarko]

Wondering how is going. Any pic to show?
