If you double click the values under red, green, or blue you can adjust the value (possible values of 0-255). Gradient and map will be updated to show change. Here you can see I adjusted the Red value for Index 4 to 255. Notice the current gradient and map.

You can pan map with mouse.
Zoom/unzoom with keyboard (going to change to mousewheel)

Have to add/code in ability to save changes
You'll have the ability to save as a different file so you can scroll through different gradients and see what they look like without having to enter the game.

Works with SH5 also (originally made for SH5 but I ported it over so it can be used with SH3)

fantastic work TDW !
would we be able (with your tool) to SAVE the changes DIRECTLY to terain.act file (and not only to a gradient image) ? saving the changes only to a gradient image will help in sh3 only for viewing the colors (through your tool) but in order to see these colors in game we have to save these colors DIRECTLY to terain.act file !
you think that is possible for you to make it save the changes directly to terain.act ?
i mean that the best is to make it able to 'read' the colors from a gradient image(can be worked all colors together through graphics programmes) and to make it able to import these colors from gradient image directly to the terain.act file

yes it will save changes directly to terrain.act file for SH3 You'll be able to create 'gradient' files for SH3 by creating multiple terrain.act files (terrain1.act, terrain2.act, terrain3.act, etc. and then you can cycle through these by pressing G. These files will be located in the folder where the app is located)

So we can change the gradient for the water depth, also?

If by water depth you mean the colors used for the water on the map then yes. If you are referring to the color of the water when you use external cam then no.

makman94 has a test version of the app. It's not complete yet but it's close (few little logic errors to correct and have to code in the saving of the gradients). Works with SH5 or SH3

Hi !

Can someone please explain me how this tool works and for what this is ?

I mean, I start the .exe and after loading I see an empty navmap. And now ?

Best regards,

Hi makman !

The .exe from this SH5 Thread:

http://174.123.69.202/~subsimc/radio...postcount=7746

Download Link at the end from the post !

But in my opinion it´s the same for SH3, or ?

Best regards,
Magic

I have revised that app to also work with SH3. It's not complete yet but should be soon. makman94 found some issues I need to fix and I also need to let SH3 read .bmp files for the gradients (currently it reads .act files)

Maybe I need another .NET Framework?

Same here TDW , doesn't working. unable to see any adjusters or different gradients.bmp or different Terrain.act files

There are no more different .act files. Everything is done using either tgas or SH3's .act file.

Very baffling to me as I have no problems on Win 7 64bit. When asked I can use SH3 or SH5 and I can use the gradients or the .act file

test version 0.0.3: http://www.megaupload.com/?d=2GSORUUP

run the Dbgview app first then the SHMapViewer app. This way I have some debug feedback to see what's going on.
