Ardennes map terrain sculpting
« on: April 05, 2025, 11:01:12 AM »



For some maps which I find boringly smooth I adjust the map_h.tga so as to impart some visual variety by sculpting the terrain. I've recently done this for the Ardennes map. Here's the readme file contents:

The smoothness of the Ardennes map has been enlivened with some small scale hills, mostly in the forested areas. River banks have been adjusted as well. Additionally, terrain slopes for railways particularly and certain sections of roads have been made less steep and smoother.

This height map file is used by both the summer and winter maps.

Back up the original map_h.tga, and drop this into your Ardennes map folder.
