Still tweaking resources, terrain.
Unit updates also.
Trying to get this looking like cardboard and paper.
The glitch on the sea hexes, maybe a terrain tile tweak.
Hunting down pixels... sigh.

RE: Retro mod W.I.P
So you know the tiles on the map are 90x76.
So the edges need to be precise.
It looks like to me the lower left corner of the tile.png map that is empty has an row or two of pixels dropping down from the tile above.

RE: Retro mod W.I.P
Thanks for the feedback. Will check that tile. A layer may have slipped.

RE: Retro mod W.I.P
Well tiles are more or less done.
(A filter tool had fuzzed a two pixel border around all the land edges).
Still have not decided on base tile color, (rgb value suggestions welcome)
(I Took a look through MWIF, WITPAE and Storm over the Pacific for ideas).
Now that the elements are all on layers, I can change base color at leisure.
So it's on to the terrain and resources tiles.
Then 'The Fill'
Then units.
Then rivers.
Then a general clean up to smooth gaps in pixels.
Sooner or later I'll start playing.

Aiming for lighter and desaturated so the tiles have a good contrast.

RE: Retro mod W.I.P
Looking great, Magpius - very much looking forward to this one
RE: Retro mod W.I.P
Progressing slower than I had hoped.
Real life gets in the way sometimes.
[update: currently on hold; not happy with how it's looking...] apologies.

In between grading papers.
Still dabbling.
Using red numbers to tweak tiles
Blue numbers to identify terrain.
Still working on resources.

RE: Retro mod W.I.P
I really like your terrain. Gives an old map kinda feeling.
RE: Retro mod W.I.P
+1
I love where this über-cool & very well-made map mod is going now!!
Can’t wait to try it out!
Just a though for consideration:
How about superimposing these classic swamp symbols over marsh green?
(I don’t think there are any swamps on the WP Pacific map?)
