Terrain Incontinuity

SilverNexus · Post by **SilverNexus** » Sun Oct 21, 2012 2:41 am

Wandering around the world map, I noticed a spot where the terrain has a very unnatural-looking terrain transition on the boundary between maps /world/world_115_100 and /world/world_115_101. For over twenty squares, the transition between sand/beach and grassland/forest maintains a straight line with no overlap.

Yes, I am running the most updated version of the maps (r18480).

Check the file history of that map.

Revert the map back to r8050. In your opinion does it look worse, same or better then it does now? (r18480)

Looking at the old version of the map, I would say each of the maps individually look better now than they did then. For continuity between the maps, however, the older maps win hands down.

I just need to revert the map files back to modern times, and, with some minor tweaks, I should be able to get the best of both worlds.

I made the tweaks, but when I try to submit the altered maps as a patch, they don't show up on the tracker. I even made a SourceForge account,and it still didn't work. Is something malfunctioning on the SourceForge end, or is it on my end?

Is this the page in question?

SF is having some service issues right now, but this particular service or project is not listed as being down. Could be undiagnosed though.

Yep, that's the page in question.

And that information seems to cover it. (I'm assuming Trackers are under the databases they mentioned)

So, I guess I wait until its back online.

The database stuff is back online. I posted the map changes (although I had to post it in two parts due to file size limitations).
