Hi chaps, I've done some tweakings for personal use to the excellent map by CanonUK, over the versions with textures from GilB57 for Spring & Summer. I've changed a texture to avoid patterns in the agriculture especially over France fields (not reducing the definition or the quality of the texture, just editing it to reduce its 'personality'), and changed the forest textures to Italian ones (darker forests look more natural I think, and they match better with the darker autopop trees in the borders of the forest and fields). If CanonUK & GilB57 are OK with this I'll add a link, cheers :)

Tweaks to CanonUk / Gilb67 Channel Map by Whitecat 1.0

Download: https://www.mediafire.com/file/ne5nr2u2r47uuvo/Maps_00_whc_Tweaked_CanonUK_GilB67_Channel.zip

Credits:

- Oleg & team of course
- Special thanks to CanonUK, we all know how much time they dedicated
to make it as accurate and historical as possible.
- To Gilb67 for his nice repaint of the map. This is basically a 'repaint of the repaint' :)

Instructions to install:

- Make sure you have the CanonUK map (existing in all the Packs like UP, etc)
- Make sure you have the GilB67 4 seasons repaint (sorry I cannot find the link)
- Delete previous folders of Maps_00_whc_Tweaked_CanonUK_GilB67_Channel
- Copy the folder Maps_00_whc_Tweaked_CanonUK_GilB67_Channel into MODS folder.
- Add the lines in add_to_all_ini.txt to your MODS/Mapmods/maps/all.ini

If you want to use the missions you have already in these maps you have to change the 2nd line
of each .mis file from (I use one of the load ini's as example:

MAP CAN_EnglishChannel/GSpr_1940load.ini

to:

CAN_EnglishChannel/whc_GSpr_1940load.ini

Enjoy!

Nice improvement. The "before" woods had a yellowish tinge which did not blend well with the blue-ish tinge of the field texes.

The shape of the 2 small woods in your photos looks very unnatural and obvious. Can you also kill the "L" shape and possibly merge the 2 little woods into 1?

Disaster!

But I will have to live with it...  ;)

BTW - I really LOVE your repaint jobs! They bring old maps to life again! And if you can revive the oh, so old but oh, so useful Finnish Gulf stock map I know many will be grateful!
