Getting rid of Perma terra Incognita! [Vanilla map]

Hello,
some days ago i decided to do what i allways wanted to do when i played eu2 long time ago.

Im planning to add new provinces (mostly for colonisation or modding) to vanilla map and fill its perma terra incognita.

RELEASE:
v 1.3 Siberia + Australia done. No perma terra incognita anymore on this map. URL: https://mega.co.nz/#!NxFA3QoT!8gi34TCJdOjLsR2Q_bByxBrUoQYmTLcMGpxGk3zI6Lg

Older versions:

v1.1 Africa added https://mega.co.nz/#!gxtS3aTL!NkNLYG7ySnaWefBac31dy144zQeO-c_vU0HhSBO7Kvg

v1.0: https://mega.co.nz/#!pt0kmQBK!k_mpMZ9c5CZrAAcaoGuBHSq7ZSFX10hGzt2R2y3gtak
[unpack those files and overwrite in FTG folder - prepare backup files!]
There is filled North and South America.
I'll fill Africa next.

Tested on: FTG 1,3 december release + AGCEEP 1.59b4

Everything would look even better if font choice was consistent everywhere. Which gives replacing every name on the map. Otherwise, they clash pretty much.

Still a much appreciated work of yours, thanks in advance for future sharing.

 

[comper]

And which font is used in vanilla?

Thought its Times New Roman.

 

[Vaximillian]

I'd wager it's not Times. But which one — alas, no idea.

 

[Therion]

The vanilla font is Bernhard Modern.

 

[comper]

Do you guys know a good way to export ligthmap1 to 2 and 3?

minject /l in magellan is not implemented. Is there another way?

 

[comper]

Some updates.

Thanks for Therion i managed to find perfect font:

 

[Therion]

minject /l should work in the latest magellan versions.

 

[comper]

Well latest version i got is:

Marianas (Release Candidate 1)
(current: 2.4.0-rc1) - EXPERIMENTAL

and /L dosn't seems to work ;/

 

[ConjurerDragon]

minject /l should work in the latest magellan versions.

On his page
http://www.inferis.org/eu2/magellan/#minject
I still read:

This tool does not yet support Moddir... It probably will in the future.
The /L option is currently unimplemented.

 

[Therion]

I use Sulawesi and I'm quite sure it works.

That page probably wasn't updated.

Edit: When extracting you only need to extract lightmap 1 (mextract /1). I seem to remember that it did not work if you extracted all three lightmaps.

 

[ConjurerDragon]

You could take a look at earlier attempts to mod the map, e.g. here for hints:

That worked!

I'll do first release in a minute or two.
