-1kx1k texture!
-Terragen rendered heightmap that align's properly!
-Tree's but not ridiculous amounts!
-Randomly generated metal and plenty of it!
-Even numbers north, odd numbers south!
-6 player max!
-Nice gameplay!

I may make a revised version if there are any major complaints, so criticism is welcomed.

how do you render terragen maps from top-down perspective? I can only get 75 degrees down, never 90...what am I doing wrong? how do I convert terragen redered pictures to the spring format? I'd really like to get my hands dirty :)

Turn off all environmnetal settings and in camera settings tick orthographic and then click auto setup. You may have to move the sun to ninety degrees to not auto render shadows.

How come you did not smooth out the corners in the rivers? TA spring maps are capable of doing that much more easily that OTA maps, so why not take advantage of it?

Because he'd have to redraw the entire map by hand in Photoshop in order to do that. This is a port, not creation.

Hmm, can you be more descriptive? Do you get any errors?

Maybe I will, you'll just have to wait and see.

If there's a '.' in the mapname it wont handle it properly and it doesn't seem to find an smd...

Yes, that is the problem.

Fixed the problem and upgraded it to 0.3 so people see the difference. Uploading now.

Network gaming could be a problem if everyone renames their version slightly differently to everyone else.
I think there's a moral here mappers...
