There are so many different types zones ...

I've found Helgoland, it's the white pixel.

Else, there is a problem : I've found 37 different shades of gray, instead of 33.

IDX that are not in Terrain.cfg :

red : IDX 34
green : IDX 9
blue : IDX 18
pink : IDX 0

How the zones are simplified in Terrain.cfg

With resolution 2160x1080, one pixel is 20km.

Many of these different types you will never see from your boat.
I think, that I will make my TerrainTypes.raw with no more than 12.
Just because I want to split them into northern and southern hemisphere, otherwise 8 are enough. With a variety of seasons textures, all will look very good.

Yes, it's a very good idea. I though myself about that some time ago. Because while it's winter in northern hemisphere, it's summer in southern hemisphere. That's why we buy exotic fruits during winter !

I think that the main thing to do is to add a mediteranean climate around the Mediteranean sea. It's not a tropical forest here ! :nope:

Time to open and read some geography books !

In the reverse case, you create "TgaToRaw.bat" with the following line:
Code:

"D:\Programs\ImageMagick\convert.exe" -depth 8 -size 2160x1080 TerrainTypes.tga TerrainTypes.gray

This code is also working :
Code:

"D:\Programs\ImageMagick\convert.exe" -depth 8 -size 2160x1080 TerrainTypes.tga gray:TerrainTypes.raw

Yes, it is obvious and is better, renaming is dropped. :yeah:

Added in the list (the first post), my old idea about UZO.

Yes, i remember ! I still use it with great pleasure. Thx !

For Terrain.act file (Map gradient):

Act-To-Tga
Code:

"D:\Programs\ImageMagick\convert.exe" -depth 8 -size 256x1 rgb:Terrain.act Terrain.tga
Tga-To-Act
Code:

"D:\Programs\ImageMagick\convert.exe" -depth 8 -size 256x1 Terrain.tga rgb:Terrain.act
Know, that first 48 colors are for the water, the next 208 for the land.

Tycho, would you have some tricks about Silent 3 Editor ? For example, i can't copy or cut, and then paste a specific node to change its location in the file, or to copy it several times ... I've heard about a hex editor to use, but have no idea about that ... :06:

Spend the money and get 010 Hex editor if you want major power.
I'll list what that program has done for SH Versions.

It was the main tool to create the SH5 editor by TDW.
It's the Tool I used to break the animations used in SH4.
(Yes. I can do animations in true SH4 format now)
It also allows better animations in SH3 once you learn how to use it.

One problem with S3D?
It stopped people from really learning how to do things as everyone accepted the limitations.

There's maybe 2 or 3 people left here that can do things in Hex.
My Friend Alex is probably the best I've ever seen work from.
A true Master that should have a SubSim Award.

Not sure that I understood exactly, but:

For copy with all children use Shift+Ctrl+C
For cut with all children use Shift+Ctrl+X
