If you make some editings you need always patch the unpatched by Enhanced Map Drawing sh3.exe file.

Yes, first time I try to open your .bat file. SH3.exe is not patched with H.Sie nor Stiebler.

My SH3 is a Steam version.

Now I see that the Steam sh3.exe is different.
So, this patch is not for Steam version.
Till tomorrow will make it for Steam.

Oops!
For Steam users:
It will be too complicated to make it for patch that is intended only to change some byte values here and there. As has said, I am not competent for this.
But don't worry, there have a solution. For Steam users, you need to patch the sh3.exe first with "H.Sie fixes" and if desired "Stiebler Add-on". Then, the sh3.exe will be ready for my patch.
In any case, I can not imagine how someone will play the game without "H.Sie fixes" and "Stiebler Add-on", this is inhuman.

OK. It works for me. Can I delete the sh3.exe.bak file ?

Yes, just always keep your original sh3.exe somewhere safe.


Let's discuss something. Soon I will make new version.
There I choose to get rid of these rombs on the ruler line.
I make it by multiplay the distance where these will be puts by 100000 times.
So, now only one romb will appears if you have line over 25000 km and you are zoomed on 250 meters map scale. For all other cases, are not enough space in the world. My max zoom is limited to 500 meters map scale, so I will not have a single romb, irrespective of the distance of the line. The final distance on the end of the line will stay.

But, by this multiplication have other possibilities, for example, to make the rombs to appears on nautical mile scale. Like on this screen, the final distance on the line is in meters but the rombs are placed on 5 and 10 miles.

 

It is also valid for the final distances. I can make one or two of the range tools, to be measured in nautical miles. Will not make it for myself, I like it in meters, but I'm telling you about the possibilities.
Here, the ruler is in meters, the compass is in nm and show 1 nm.

 

I would like the compass in meters.

I would like the ruler in nautical miles for the rombs, and in meters for the final distance.

One question : How do you convert a specific color into bytes ?

If you don't like colors of the map, disable the mod, delete the Terrain folder from the mod, and enable the mod again with JSGME.

The problem may be that you don't see very well the grids, this is my case (even with stock colors as on the pic below).

Most graphic editors have field for the colors in hex values. If not, the net is full of such converters.

 

The words in .exe are reversed, you need to read backwards.
So, if your color is RGBA: 1F45B4FF
In .exe it must be ABGR: FF B4 45 1F
Be careful to not revers a byte value itself, B4 must stay B4 not 4B.

I do not understand exactly what colors you target, grids or terrain or water, but:
All colors are as I like. I even don't have relief for terrain, this is my personal variant:

 

MyMapGradient.7z

I search for feeling of nautical charts, not a geographic map.
I play without my boat on map, so I do a lot of drawing/ploting, and I need clean map without distractions.
But, the point is, that all these are easy customisable and everyone may do their own variants.

[Tricky]

Anyone have the before/after pictures from the OP? I'd love to be able to see those instead of patching my EXE and loading game 100 times.
