Thanks. Glad you like it. The new mountains are now done. I did the rivers yesterday and I'm working on island distribution and texturing next. So, I'm making slow and steady progress.
But I just know the cities, towns, roads and other bits of civilization are going to take weeks. So I'm estimating another month. My goal is to get it finished and posted by the end of July. That's my goal. On August 1st, I want to be DONE with the new map project and starting on something else.
I'm not sure how to deploy it. Option 1 - A single, large, really high resolution map (similar to what we have now)? Or Option 2 - a map that you can click on and it takes you to a "zoomed in" section of the main map and then you can click again and go to an even more zoomed in map that shows an even smaller section of the world. Each "step" of zoom would be a separate map.
I'm not sure which would be more useful/user friendly. Any ideas? I see pros and cons each way. Or maybe both options should be made available.
Anyway, I'm making progress.
