I've updated the DomMap.zip with the ability to turn the new shading on and off and changing the various colours through command-line parameters.

Very interesting. I take it for granted that the "amount of brightening" and the "amount of shading" variables refer to the range of light and the range of dark that the plains pixel colors will be shifted?

I understand the elevation reference. Whats the "shadow map" reference? Possibly something like the effect we got from using the "bumps" filter? A bit of texturizing so that the color-by-elevation was more landscapey and less smooth? (I havent played with it yet to see)

This is turning out SO nice compared to what I found in all my hunts for a random generator, that it might want to be used outside of the Dom2 community. Would it be hard to add a switch to turn off the dominion items such as capitals and borders?
