Thanks for the info, I don't mind running in 32 bit color at all. Going to try that out. Thanks for the tip. And
of course, thanks a BUNCH for the map.

Rocco

Corrected version 2.1 will be posted soon. I’ve found a new host. V2.1 will be suitable for both 16bit and 32 bit modes. If you have already downloaded v.2.0, and experience problems mentioned by Rocco, please run the game in 32bit mode, initialize game thru the shortcut (procedure described above).

Btw, I wonder how many of us run WitP in 32bit mode, that 1.5 feature makes even original style map look good. I’m asking cause I can post version that I use personally, it has no noise over the water areas, no hazy effect and in 32bit mode looks crystal clear, in addition it’s only 48mb big (both variants).



Better quality, smaller size - sounds great! Does the 32-bit mode make things run more slowly?

That would be great!if isn't too much trouble,of course.

Status: offline 		This is another improvement for your map,but I can't help but notice that the best map(for me,at least) would be the one that combines your changes with original map(deep-shallow water borders from the original map).I don't know is that possible to do due to all changes applied to the map,but that would be THE map for this game,imho.

Downloaded this one and applied 32-bit switch to WITP. It appears you have some "steps" visible where BMP files should "blend" into each other. This was not visible in previous versions of your map (16-bit ones that I used).

One "step" is visible immediatelly south of Timor, another south of Ponape island...

Status: offline 		When I made the original map mod that this is based on that was the hardest part ...getting all the map segment borders to mesh up exactly:) Its a pain, I eventualy just made one HUGE photoshop file with template sections to just paste back into the originals.

I'm running 32 bit no hex variation and havent noticed any problem areas yet here.

No install.It's just some bitmap files(although really good ones),so you don't need 2.0

How come your old 16-bit version didn't have any glitches? Is dealing with these seams harder when doing 32-bit maps?

Looks very good. Where did Bora Bora go? Liked the landmark. I didn't notice any glitches in 32 bit, didn't look too close though.

Just to clarify - there is no Bora Bora on Subchaser's map. It is his version of the official map (which also does not have Bora Bora).

Yes Oleg some glitches are still there unfortunately. The problem is that the grandmap psd file was lost and I was forced to rework all parts of the map separately. One of the filters applied caused these anomalies, the nature of this problem is unknown to me yet, I’ve successfully patched the borders in Timor/Arafura Sea and Coral sea areas with interlayers but failed in some other places. I’m going to create grandmap psd again and produce new matrixes, this should solve the problem completely. However, I don’t think that existing glitches are that serious, it surely can’t cause any problems or confusion during the gameplay, map is accurate, more accurate than original, that’s why I’ve decided to post this version as it is now. These problems are cosmetic and can barely catch your attention (if you’re not looking for them), if you’re using hex variant you hardly see them.

As I’ve already said, the new version will be produced so the 2.1. is not the last one. I’ll introduced some new features and fix more “wrong” hexes, there are hell of them still (of course much less then on original map). I’m sorry for these problems, you can switch back to original map if these glitches “hurt” your eyes.

Are sure that you’re running in 32bit color? please make a screenshot (bmp not jpeg) and send it to me.
