Map Making Tutorials and Tools All Good Links
« on: March 22, 2013, 12:29:52 AM »

Well,

Thanks to Max The Hitman he has noticed that some of my older hotfile links are no longer valid  :-[

I have amalgimated a number of good mediafire working links mostly from UP~Boomer  8) ;D and a link from Uzin for FIDO's tool.


If anyone else has items that are not here please feel free to upload mediafire links for anything that may be missing.


Gimp 2.0.7. (older version,I like it better than the newer versions)

https://www.mediafire.com/download.php?3ei6awmr1rawsyl

Heres an RGB Guide UP~Boomer made,it is in .tga and can be used in Gimp or whatever
Use the color picker tool for quickly choosing RGB Values

woods RGB 24
water RGB 31 (surf)
water RGB 30 (no surf)

secondary roads RGB 32
railways RGB 64
highways RGB 128

last three RGB values are flattened,RGB 32,RGB 64 and RGB 128


Other than the RGB values above for the roads/highways and rail roads
RGB values that are above 40, are used to simulate shallow water and surf around coastlines
you won't see water on these areas even though in map_T you've created water textures.

The map_C and mapC_tga.table, are what make shallow areas or deep shoals in water

I have a problem (possibly from living in Thailand) concerning the Game Front link ( Kevin P's Tutorials) it does not want to save,  if anyone else has problems with it don't hesitate to reply.

UP~Boomers mediafire links are all good   ;D :D ;) :) :)

Cheers

The gimp link in the original post only works ,or will only install on x64 systems.

This work on x86 Gimp 2.6 41.4mb

So far all is well in 4.12m, but am only at Map_c stage.
