So you're saying I should upload the same item (the beach strip) but at a different site? Okay, I'll try that.

Edit: I'm getting nowhere. I googled rapidshare/hotfile and there are more entries than you can shake a stick at - and none that I looked at seemed to be an upload site. You're going to have to give me an address if I'm going to get any further with this, cat.

you probably have to put in in a folder first and rar it.
then gamefront will probably work
 
tried it deosnt work. the item is there, but the colour is still the old beach colour - just round.
i prefer the old one anyway...
 
Wouldn't you like this beach in AoD? I made this up in photoshop.

Is this exactly what you have Epaminondas?

It's a little frustrating because every BMP file can be replaced and properly displayed by the game, but the beach isn't working for me.
 
If it's not exactly the same it's very, very close.
Does this mean that you've finally cracked the problem and incorporated your new image into AoD? If so, congratulations - it's obviously been a very irritating task.
 
Wildcat,

try this one. Hope it helps/powodzenia! ;)

P.S.: maybe you'd also like to improve the overall look of the map by having more real-like colors (e.g. green for plains etc.)? If so, take a look at the link in my sig.
 
Good Job Titan. Your file worked fine. Was it only a matter of background?

I used to original map colors, steel is not my color for urban provinces. But have you seen this? Its DecMap.
Only works with DecMod, but I wish this could work for vanilla.

Well, I guess so. I only know that, in fact, the vanilla file didn't work so I tried switching the background as a first attempt - and indeed it worked.

Yes, I too would like urban provinces to be gray, but this color is already used for mountains; and I prefer blueish over yellow, as in HoI2/AoD, so I'm overall fine with that.

I've seen Decriser's map, thank you. I concur it looks really good - the only problem is that, since I play with Gringoesteban's Third Reich mod, I have to stick to the original map (not that it bothers me too much, heh. I think that, although being often criticized for its oldness, HoI2's map is a good one and does well the job it has been made for).
