![]() ![]() There might be instances in which you would want to use a different scale, such as making a very detailed, scaled up map of a small geographical area, or a scaled down map representing a much larger landmass. You will always end up with the same scale as Hegemony’s vanilla Italy map. However, it will not allow you to change the scale at which the editor imports this data. The Hegemony editor allows you to import professional elevation data from sources such as NASA, giving you an accurate terrain mesh of a real-life geographical area without having to do any actual sculpting work. Welcome to this tutorial, where I will attempt to explain how to scale heightmaps that you can then import into the editor and base your custom maps off of. Now simply hit "import height field", navigate to your height fields and select all of them just as you usually would. Not recommended unless you're going for a more absurdist mod. Note that, if you do not keep the 'samples per long' value at 75% of the 'samples per lat' value, then the map will stretch itself unrealistically. Obviously, you can use any values you like. ![]() Adjust the "samples per lat" and "samples per long" lines any way you want (default values are 1200 and 900 respectively) and press ok.Īs examples, multiplying both numbers by 2 will make the map twice as zoomed in (for a 4x larger map as its 2x bigger along each axis) and dividing them by two will make the map twice as zoomed out (making the map a 4th of the size as each axis is halved). In terrain mode, click on the new "advanced properties" text. Go to the file menu (top left button) and enable advanced mode. As such the old guide can still be found further down below, but is not really recommended. The only thing that the editor does not support which my old method does is Z scaling aka vertical scaling, which can either amplify or smooth the height differences on the entire map at once. A lot of this guide is now redundant as the devs have been kind enough to add scaling functionality to the editor itself. ![]()
