This mod changes the map colours, for those that have trouble differentiating between the depth information on the chart. It also offers the removal of terrain elevation information and also the correct nautical use of dark colours for shallows and light for the deep, as opposed to light for shallows and dark for deep on maps.

Chart Colour Scheme 1. Inverse shallows and no terrain elevation:

I just installed Scheme 3 - Light Shallows and Intense Terrain.:salute:
I have been looking for something like this since release, I even posted a [REQ] Nav Map Makeover.
Stock Charts just do not show the changes in depth very well. This MOD changed that so it is easier to find deeper locations in the shallow area's.

Thank You!:yeah:

Thank you Nisgeis.
