If the island is small (up to 2000 meters) it's near imposible, but I'm working on Scapa Flow now, and trying to make it look less flatter.

here some screenies on increasing height of a small isle named Helgoland Northsea.

This will certainly help my travelling from Kiel to the hunting grounds :up: :up: :up: :up:

Could someone please do the suez canal for me so i can finish my devious little mission i am working on . Thanks

I'm reinstalling my machine right now, when I finish I'll make it for you.

Ref

wow, if i can use the canal i might start using the subs at Kiel! there was nothing i hated more than getting stuck with a type II at Kiel, in IuB

Feel free to use it, link on page two of this thread, first post, also you may want to implement CCIP's mod to the locations file, it's cool :up:

Thanks Ref , you are the man .

So how does this work here? I want the Kiel Canal, the Scapa Flow fix, Helgoland Blight, and has anyone done Rockall? Do I d/l them individually, or is one file being changed and I need to wait for all of these to come out together?

@ CCIP:

Does your location file include the lighthouse mod and the Black Sea Ports? What was the basis? The pictures looked cool, good job.

Thanks for this great tool! :know:
I'm also looking for Panama Canal.

Greetings,

Rubini.

Hehe, awesome, you actually live there!
I motored through there on a sailboat last year... would it be possible to model the schleusen at either end though... I doubt it, but it would be pretty cool.

You can download it one by one, because the terrain file is 250mb in size I made a program to redistribute only the modified parts, it replaces only the changed parts in the terrain, so the downloads are small and they don't overwrite modifications on other parts of the map.

Kiel Canal:

Download the file, instructions inside, later I'll post Scapa Flow and
Suez Canal

New beta release, corrects an offset in the height map, thanks to TigerKatziTatzi for picking it up and for his feedback.
Also included is a translation of the tutorial to german made by Jörg Ot thanks to him also.

exe only for those who have already downloaded the full version:

For those who don't like the editing part of the mod, here is my version of the Kiel Canal, Scapa Flow Estern entrance and the Suez canal. Install instructions are inside the zip file.

Feel free to use them as a starting point to make your own versions, the only request is that ant mod you make based on mine or with my software MUST be freely distributed.

I've tried to upload them to u-boot.realsimulation but I couldnt so Terrapin if by any chance you read this please be so kind to do it.

Good job ref :up:

the Helgoland mod will take couple more days, cause i started to modify TerrainTypes as well and used a new texture for Helgoland. In origin Helgoland is a red cliff isle. Needs still some debugging on it.
Thats a first sample.
