Starway

Thanks a lot!

I am sorry but it is not possible to retouch/edit individual spots on the map at this time. But you can use one of the previous released of this DLC. They still have snowcaps. Best, Starway

Nice Videos! I like your taste in music :)

That is very very sad. RIP

Thank you! :)

This version only contains compressed 8K dds noise textures.

Yes, it is a standalone version. Best, SW

UPDATE 2.4. The new 2.4 version of this DLC is ready for release The testing phase is over which means the file will be available for public. In this update, the main focus is on the distant textures. More than 16.0000 texture files have been edited. The result is a much more volumetric looking terrain with more contrast. The snowy mountain tops have been exchanged so it fits better to the overall look and the high resolution mountain textures. All the remaining high res textures like fields, grass and village textures have been retouched, to make them blend perfectly into the distance.

Sorry but I can't follow every single whish and comment here. Don't get me wrong, feedback is a very important issue for me, but due to the fact that you are the only one complaining about highly detailed and satalite based textures, I think you should get back to version 1 of this DLC (with less painted details in the noise) or consider other sources. Best, SW

It will be standalone due to many changes. Best, SW

Right now, I cannot release the DLC through other channels due to the fact that it contains more than 2 GB. But hopefully someone can create a torrent after release. Best, SW FYI: Right know, some selected members are testing the brand new version. If everything looks fine, I think I can make a release next week. Best SW

Thanks :)

soon...very soon

Good advice. I still have to correct the mip maps of the tree textures.

Editing the distance textures is very time-consuming. There are over 4000 texture files for each season to edit. Many of them needs to be touched by hand. Right now, I have now influence if the mod will pass IC, due to the fact that it is not released by ED. Anyways, I hope I can create a release version soon. Yes, as mentioned in my post before, I retouched all the mip maps of the LandTexturesOther archives so they blend better into distance. This solved the problem that sometimes the fields look a bit too bright at distance. There are still some little things to do, but overall I think it looks very good so far. Best, SW

New mip maps for fields, villages and towns for more detail and better distance blending. Thanks again Kuky for the tip! Approved for 1.5.4

I will create a new file this weekend, which will hopefully be ready for download on monday. In the meanwhile, please try to download the via the link in the first post of this thread. Best, SW

You did a great job with the Desert Storm skin and I don't wanted to disfigure your work but the thing is I love grey in grey low vis skins! And I am totally aware of it's historically incorrectness. :) Best, SW

Thanks for helping the guy out here. Regarding the experiment with the new distance textures. I would say it was a success! :)

I started some experiments with new distant textures with less snowy mountains and more contrast which I want to share with you. Best, SW

Thanks for your support! Yes, that is the BANA project. Some guys might have missed that, but that is one of my side projects I am part of.

Thank zaelu for this video. This is a very good beginner's guide how mip mapping works. Maybe you want to repost it or move it somewhere in the "how-to" section too. Best, SW

Try to reload the file. There is something wrong with your files. The should be named "noise_1.bmp.dds"
