<t> Cmon guys, I want to support Matrix, but the game is 33% more expensive on Matrix than it is on Steam for New Zealand.<br/> <br/> I will be buying on Steam as there is no way I can justify paying so much extra. Matrix always treats New Zealand this way, I have never seen a game even the same pri...

And now it is working and downloading at a decent speed, 2 minutes to download. Yay!

<t> Yeah, I'm in New Zealand and have brought it up before, it just whatever Matrix uses hates NZ, everything else is good, just downloads from Matrix.<br/> <br/> However, I am unable to download this patch at all. I can download the installer, I can download patches for other Matrix games, just not...

<r> I think I may actually hate you, no joke.

<r> Why are Matrix/Slitherine download speeds always so awful? I know you don't have the resoures of Steam etc, but come on, it has been stupidly slow for so many years.<br/> <br/> <br/> <br/> <IMG src="https://www.matrixgames.com/forums/upfiles/39808/4B948F8065514DBABF126FB2DE5E0D68.jpg"><s>[img]</...

Same here, the auto updater has never worked for Armored Brigade for me.

<t> Awesome, glad it is working. <br/> <br/> The colour ramp is exported as text editable file, so I just looked at what that showed, it prints a set of numbers for each value of the height, with corresponding colour RGB values etc. I just used that and extrapolated to be able to create a height cha...

I use the SRTM plugin to get the Height Map for the region I'm in. I then apply the style, as attached, to the layer and export it like you showed me. Works fine for me in Armoured Brigade, haven't tested any other regions yet, but looks good so far.

<r> Okay, so the output looks like the below. I have tested it for the region where I grew up and it is working perfectly in Armoured Brigade. <br/> <br/> <IMG src="https://www.matrixgames.com/forums/upfiles/39808/F36D4FD776274DE8BBE05550D814CFC9.jpg"><s>[img]</s><URL url="https://www.matrixgames.co...

Yeah, I use a plugin to download the heightmap from NASA Earth Data. Then use a custom colour ramp, made from the RGB formula. I created the ramp in Excel so that it has right values as per the formula and imported it into QGIS.

I'll share it once I'm back at home PC.

Woohoo, now all working fine using QGIS. Figured out the heightmap export as well so I'm all go for some holiday map creation.

Thanks for you help!

Awesome thanks for the explanation. I was heading in that direction, but couldn't quite line it up. I'll try that out.


Edit: Works like a charm, thanks for your help!

Now I just need to figure out the heightmap business, haha.

Hey, if you are still around I wonder if you can provide some advice?

How do you export the images from QGIS to scale? I can't quite get my head around it. I want to say, export a 15 x 15 km scaled map, where as in the game, 1 pixel = 30 meters.

Yeah, just given the update debarkle that happened, Steam would help with that nonsense.

<t> Wish the demo was still available. But it has been removed now. Seems like a stupid move to remove the demo, unless they are updating it. Because, removing it, seems like they are trying to hide what their game is like,given how little information is available about it.<br/> <br/> <br/> <br/> <b...

Hopefully some English videos will pop up soon showing the game off. The ones I can find doesn't show me at all what the game is like. Looks very abstract and Tablet like at the moment. But I assume there is much more to it. Some proper AAR's would be appreciated.

Very impressive. I'm going to look at making my own map over the holidays. A very ahistorical recreation of the fictional battle of my hometown in New Zealand, haha.

Well, it looks like they partially fixed it. The Auto updater still doesn't work but at least I can download the from the main link in the Member's section now.
