Map Height Maps - Page 13

Maybe someone can help me with this this: Is there a way to change the "scale" of the maps so that they don't "plateau" once you reach 150m? Something like changing the height per elevation from 10m to 25m or such.

The default is 10m so if you are plateauing on a large portion of the map you can try changing that higher and then instead of each level being 10m each level will be whatever you set....try 50 to start and see if you like it but sometimes with too much elevation to deal with it just won't work so you need to make your adjustments manually or pick a new location

Given how C and S work, but M doesn't, what I think happened was that OpenSceneMap (OSM) changed the way calls to their map database work; and it broke Venhola.

This happened with a fanfic archive that broke a downloader program; I had to wait for an update to the downloader plugin so that I could resume tracking my fanfics.

I sent an email to Tuomas about this when it first surfaced and I have not had a reply.

The last time he posted on the forums was nearly 1 year ago

This may be him....or not

No reply yet and there could be 100 reasons why but I may have found out why this has happened. On my first try today a message was displayed that said the website’s certificate expired 81 days ago

BUT HOPE STILL LIVES

I can get to the map editor now but it shows a white screen until you press the bottom button that toggles between map and satellite imagery

And from that I was able to generate a map ! get while you can

This is a plain rough 90x90 map I created using Venhola and the advanced map editor cut and paste. It is nominally an area in Tunisia given the designation Hill 609 but the map is a mash up of peaks and valleys created from the original map that did not turn out as well as I hoped.

Maybe someone can use it for something. It is interesting

Seems like the Venhola site is down again. Hope this is temporary, I am working on a campaign right now...

When was the last time you tried it?

Ts4EVER · #**129** March 18th, 2024, 10:36 AM

Probably end of last week or last weekend.

OK.
I'll see if I can find his email address
