I wrote you a long mail and just when I was about to hit the send button the whole monster crashed and didn't save the message! GRR! Now, shortly: I have included terrain_types.txt to this message. It lists the terrain types in our map and you have to draw textures for them. You don't need to draw one texture for each terrain type, just do for example one sand texture you can then use with desert, beach and shore terrain types. Same for every else. Use your judgement. You don't need to worry about deepness (deep forest vs. normal forest), their differences are made by other things. Just one texture for both deep jungle and jungle. If there is terrains you don't figure out how to draw texture for, volcano for examples - don't draw it then ;) In future we are going to need different tile sets for each season. In winter it would be nice to see grassland not green, not brown but white! > Also, I've been thinking, and given that I love playing Dwarfs and they > haven't been created yet, I could write up the Dwarf section of the > worldbook.
