you can edit the biomes map to whatever biomes you want using any half decent image editor. is not much file editing but just painting over the current file. there are more than a couple tutorials out there and it is very easy to do

Create a normal map and then edit the biomes.png file to be all snow.

Any exciting updates with Teragon @Tallman Brad?

you don't

that looks absolutely amazing. I want it!. I NEED IT!!! the video was also very well presented. keep us updated @Tallman Brad! does teragon has it's own forum thread? or it's Pille's discord only.

OMC! that looks absolutely amazing! now I really can't wait!!!

Magnificent news! I can't wait. I assume it will include the new tiling system? the new RWG is awesome but it can't beat a tailored map.

hi @KingSlayerGM, I know you are busy right now but do you have any idea approximately when or even if you will be able to update the tool for A20? I mean the tiles and roads etc, not just the prebad list. cheers.

MACHICOLATIONNNNNNNNNNSSS!

I'm not saying there aren't ways to work around it. but I give you other cases. well... depending on how particle board structural integrity works A new player tries to build with particle boards and gets frustrated as it has the horizontal support of wood and then everything have to be smaller. A new player builds everything in particle boards and procceds to upgrade everything all the way to concrete, then realizes everything could be spacious as concrete and wood don't have the same structural support a new player builds everything on particle board, then continues to remove 1 block at the time to replace for concrete or steal but... you should have not removed that particular block timmy... now your whole base has collapsed. that is the safe space rebar provided for me Edit: I don't want rebar to be included.. I just want a way to skip upgrade steps if we already have the final raw resource. well, there's a point when you build for fun and not xp. also, and well, not sure if many people always upgrade a whole building to steel. so I think most just upgrade once and leave the concrete to dry while they do something else. still happy that wet concrete is not a thing anymore tho.

Well, imagine having to upgrade all this 4 times

95% of the terresculptor videos are the creator showing the different features and the other are just people saying "look, this exists" Nothing clear enough for me to use. I did try searching myself before asking:)

Is that TerreScuplptor??? Do you have/know of any turorial on how to use it? I use it to genreate pretty previews of the heightmaps I create in gimp, for Nitro/KG. but I' like to learn how to actually use it for it's intended purpose lol.

After playing a little bit in a KG generated world, there's something that is bothering me more than I thought it was going to. The cities are waaay too flat! I had already mentioned about how it cutted the heightmap in the borders, but now actually being in there, all that flatness is a lil bit disturbing. do you have any plans about working on that aspect? maybe making it so the flatened area is not that big so we can see some change in elevation throughout the city. cheers. also, in my personal opinion, mountain generation could get some work too, making them more mountany and less of a big ass hill with snow on the top. something I could not just drive through to get to the top. so far I'm using the mountain generation to make deserts, as it give a nice dunes vibe, but the actual mountains I had to recycle from the Nitro's resources folder

What tool do you use for the edges to transition so smooth?

Working perfectly now. Super! 👍 Here's a suggestion for the to-do list. Find a way to smooth the heightmap after the cities have been placed or do a second smoothening then, so things like >>see picture below<< don't happen, or at least not as often. Not that it's he worst thing in the world.

I'm having problems with 16 bit HeightMaps in the new version. I'm using the same files I was using with v0.8 and it generates this map. The biomes are ok, and the no POI area seems good too, but it doesn't read the 16 bit heightmap and doesn't generate the cities. after multiple failed attempts, I decided to try with the 8 bit heightmap I also had stored and it generated the map as you expected it to be generated. On another note... I'm curios about the new water mask feature. how does it work? 🤓 it adds water at any height? can I do like a river bed coming down from a mountain and fill it with water? how do I find out exactly what shade of grey I need to add the water at the right place? is it related to the shade of heightmap or something? this is promising. 😃 Also, on the water maps... does it overwrite the elevation water spawn? saying. make a crater in the middle of the land but don't want any water on it. and also... can you make it so the tool can also optionally export a water map png sames as it does for the heigtmap png? it would facitilate things, specially while we get used to it. EDIT: Something I just noticed, not sure if this is intentional or not, but traders placed in the wilderness are not connected by any road. In vanilla traders are always connected to a road. again. not sure if intentional or not, but if not, maybe make have them generate at least a dirt road?

Nice! thanks. there's one think I'm confused about tho. KingGen already gives the option to generate a clean map without using the cities mask. I can choose to NOT place cities, towns, villages, wildernes traders etc. the single pixel thing is not really necessary for that.

Different creative process I guess. I do generate empty maps over and over again while adjusting the heightmap. but once I'm happy with it, I just leave the tool to generate all the POIs. unfortunaltely KingGen keeps adding some POIs at a certain places where I do not want POIs to be generated no matter how many I have generated so far be it some mountains or tiny island I have reserved for something. Nitro did have the option to mask where you didn't want POIs to generate. used mor often I guess so it didn't decide to create a whole city in the middle of the ocean. luckily King does not have that issue so far. but it was still nice to have that control over it.

Got it. Might want to consider adding it as a feature? I think more often people will want to leave certain area clear than to actively draw the whole city planning.

Hi. This time I was testing the No POIs feature, and it effectively won't place any POIs in the demarked area... but it also won't place any POIs anywhere else (other than wilderness ones) Is there any other colour we are supposed to fill the file file with for KingGen to generate cities in the rest of the map? or it only works if I also made the custom cities. Maybe the no POIs feature should be in the zoning file instead of the Cities file? cheers

I was Generating some random maps in different configurations and encountered this in the Large Mountains setting. Not all of them are like this, but most. checked in game and all of them are at elevation 230, so I guess something needs to be tweaked either to allow it to keep generating terrain higher or to limit it to that height but without creating those flat areas. maybe lowering the base terrain to allow higher peaks would help.

oh, I thought that was about the size of the snow biome... and now that I type this I realize that that's linked to the snow elevation. thanks again. Edit: wait... will this also work in a custom heightmap??? Edit 2: nvm. I just tested it. it works. Btw, not sure if you are aware that snow and desert do touch. at least for custom heightmaps. (Yes, I know that I can edit the biomes file. just letting you know just in case)

Sorry but where in the settings and config file? I really can't see anything related to it. I'm running v0.8.0
