Go for it, mate! Be good to her, though, she's suffered neglect and needs lots of love .

I'll do my best! Thanks!

So how's this one coming? Any WIPs for us yet?

Not just yet - I've been traveling and finishing up some other things. I should have something to post up within the next few weeks though.

Okay, so I finally have some free time to get something done with this, and I am hoping to have a WIP by the end of this coming weekend. There's just one question I have before I start, and prepare yourself because this is probably obvious to people who have been here longer.

Ready?

Okay, here goes: Where do I get the original height map file? Do I need to use what su_liam's posted (there's nothing wrong with that, I just have a different direction in mind)? I was hoping to start from the ground up, but I'm not really clear where the ground is here, so any help would be most welcome.

On a side note, I also wanted to change the Region's name to "The Gallant Coast." Should I make a new thread, or can someone edit this one?

[industrygothica]

I have my thoughts, but I'll reserve them until you hear from a community leader for answers to your questions. What I will say, however, is that before you change too much, you should first check the wiki to ensure that whatever changes you make won't impact other areas. Namely, and page that references "The Boroughs" would have to be changed to reference the new name instead. Just something to think about.

The original heightfield came from NeonKnight's Fractal Terrains file. Redrobes has been providing the high res images we've been working from.

Here you go. You may need to adjust the brightness etc

Muchas gracias to everyone for the responses - those are gorgeous RedRobes, I can't wait to get started now!

Pertaining to the possibility of a name change, The Boroughs appears to be referenced only 4 times, at the top of this page, the second sentence of this page, on its own page which remains blank, and in the alt text of the overview image. It doesn't appear to have interacted much with the histories of either of those regions, at least not for the last thousand years or so. Is there anyone specific I need to direct this request to?

Cheers, I'll change the title then since su-liam has seen the post and handed it off. Personally I am glad there is interest in the CWBP and would like to get behind anyone who wants to keep pushing it further so long as it generally fits in with the neighborhood.
