If you are thinking of adding community tiles to the game, I hereby submit mine

Those are them. Paradox if you do decide to include them, please contact me first. I would like to be credited in some way, since I put a lot of time into these.

These tiles and your RNW improvements make RNW 10 times better than it already is. Hope you manage to get in the game somehow!

 

[Trin Tragula]

Will look into getting these into the game They look gorgeous.

I'd like to offer mine, too. Of course feel free to change it around to your hearts content, since I still think I went to heavy on the trade modifiers.

I haven't encountered or heard of any glitches or crashes in the final version, so I am going to claim that it is bug-free.

@Elzephor out of curiousity how did you make the height map for those 3? since they are all real places i wondered if you did magic on a topographical map or something of the sorts?

Thank you so much, it would be a dream come true to see these added to the game! I'm thrilled to see you are considering this.

For Haida and the Falklands, I used the Global Data Explorer to get the original heightmap. It allows you to get heightmaps from real world locations which are often very detailed. It's free to use, you just have to make an account. I highly reccomend it for getting realistic structures for mountains, etc.

For Antarctica, I based it off of this map of the Antarctic bedrock. However since the map is so rough, I mashed up elements of the game's heightmap to make the mountain ranges. The mountain range in the middle of the landmass, for example, is actually just a bunch of copies of the Alps from the game's heightmap crammed together. I believe I used the himilaya's from the game's heightmap to make another one of the mountain ranges as well.

It would be cool if there was a chance to actually get the nation of Haida to spawn in the RNW if you use the Haida Gwaii tile in your game.

I love that Antarctica one - it's like if plate tectonics had gone seriously awry!

The Falklands might be a bit too well-known and may take some immersion out of the game for some though (while Hiada Gwaii is just as real-life, it's definitely far less well known, not being the center of an international conflict like the Falklands are...)

I really like the one sesn posted as well. It would be nice to see lots more fantasy New World tiles posted like these!

I'm not sure, if the tile is like the one in the picture, it's already mirrored, with a few changes it may be hard to realize it's based on those islands.

Also, since we're talking about Islands in the southern Atlantic, the Isla Grande de Tierra del Fuego would look awesome as a tile.

Beautiful.

 

[Elzephor]

Beautiful.

Oh my God, DDRJake likes my tiles? I can die in peace now.
