Map: Height Maps

[DRG]

I have tried to track Tuomas Venhola down through Linkedin with limited success and I have sent him a PM message with no reply so far and I seem to recall I had email contact with him in the past but during a windows "refresh" I lost all my old email so if anyone reading this has had contact with Tuomas please let him know about this issue.

EDIT..... I found two email addresses for him ( maybe...) on rocketreach and have sent an email detailing the problems.

All we can do now is wait

Okay.

I got in touch with Tuomas and it is generating contours again but the M(ap) screen is still blank and I have told him of that bug...

EDIT....... Tuomas told me in a follow up email that he will look into the white Map screen issue when time allows

Great news!

It feels a little bit like an early Christmas...

[DRG]

Kinda does, doesn't it.....

I was getting worried. I love that program. It's a doubleplusgood top-notch program for creating map contours for anyone who likes to make maps or create scenarios.

All three views are working again

Great News! I should really make something to celebrate it...

Okay, quick question, no matter how much I zoom in I still end up with a super huge map and with ALL the peaks and valleys. Even if I change the elevation number to one or zero I still get Mount Everest as far as elevation goes.

So what I am I doing wrong?

1/ You always get the full size map. You trim to suit.

2/ If you pick really mountainous terrain that's what happens. There are 5x the height allow on our maps as opposed to any other version of SP but even with 15 levels some maps cannot be recreated properly when there are too many variations in height

Yes, I had to tricks around a bit for my Arctic campaign a bit, because some of the terrain was very extreme.
