timmodude Posted May 9, 2019 Share Posted May 9, 2019 Prior to updating to 17.3, the splat3.png image file created during random world generation showed the road system of the map. Now the file is completely blank. It doesn't show the roads anymore. Is this intended or a bug? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Damocles Posted May 9, 2019 Share Posted May 9, 2019 The alpha is set to zero, you can just "anti erase" eg increase the alpha value, then you see the splat map roads... Maybe they wanted to save from bytes for a smaller size, or its an oversight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CaptainEB Posted September 17, 2019 Share Posted September 17, 2019 But HOW... The alpha is set to zero, you can just "anti erase" eg increase the alpha value, then you see the splat map roads... Maybe they wanted to save from bytes for a smaller size, or its an oversight. So how do you increase the alpha value? I couldn't find an answer for this anywhere else!

Guppycur Posted September 17, 2019 Share Posted September 17, 2019 Select the area Copy Paste as new layer Choose an appropriate color (use black) and use the Fill tool to fill the section completely Select Layer properties and drag the Opacity slider Merge Layer Down (Paint.net) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CaptainEB Posted September 20, 2019 Share Posted September 20, 2019 I did that using paint.net and it didn't work the area was just grey when I set opacity to 100, and I tried using photoshop as well but when I try copying the selected area it says"cannot copy because the selected area is empty", So I have no idea where roads and towns are, I hope we don't have to do stuff like these for A18.

I tried it in Paint.net and in GIMP Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's a large area in the middle that's all white. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
