    I was able to put out something before taking off, so I hope that answers most of your questions.

    The tutorial thread is here.

    Advice for conversion to the politcal map will have to wait, sorry.

    I don't know if anyone around here is interested in experiments like this, but since most of the fundamental layer masks of this map have been painted by hand, I was wondering how it would look like with some real-world data.

    So, just for fun, I stuffed some real-world data into most of the layer masks of the file. The remaining layers were set to invisible.

    I don't know about the accuracy of the data... I just downloaded some files and threw them into the various layer masks I already had. Just to see how it would turn out.

    Of course this map serves no purpose at all. It's born out of mere curiosity, nothing more.

    Here is what I got:

    I would say kick-butt as usual, bro. Very cool.

    I don't think that those landmasses are very realistic.

    Cool stuff Tear, a slightly more "tropical" version of our good, old planet.
