Description
EDIT: Updated the shadercode a bit, and made it "compatible" with 1.22 (aka, changed a single value in the mod-file)

EDIT: Did some changes to the shadercode, so it looks somewhat different than before. Its not exactly where I would like it to be, but its closer to what I envisioned. There will probably be another semi-big change before the mod is final.

----

This mod was made solely out of my own interest to have a "nicer" looking map for my own playthroughs, but I thought someone else might get some usage out of it, so I published it.

Makes all the coloured map-modes semi transparant, so the underlying texture can
be seen, sort of like how Crusader Kings 2 does it.
** ADDED snow showing through

It also heavily reduces the shading from the heightmap, to reduce the plasticwrapped feel the map has in vanilla.It mainly changes the pdxmap.shader file, so should be compatible with anything which doesn't change that particular file.Iron-man safe

@shyym I've tried your fix, it works great. If I were you, I would upload an updated version of this mod to the workshop.

Should probably give an update here. Got it working in my mod-pack. Thanks for the help.

valrossenOliver: the mod zip file lives under steamapps\workshop\content\236850\916590665\912408150451135960_legacy.bin or so; unzip it, replace gfx\FX\pdxmap.shader with the pastebin version, re-zip.

I've also deleted map2\terrain\*.dds files from the zip, I don't think that's required though.

then you might want to convince eu4 that it's compatible; open Documents\Paradox Interactive\Europa Universalis IV\mod\ugc_916590665.mod, update supported_version line

Hope this helps.

Hmm, shyym. Doesn't seem to work for me even with that file.
Should I keep all the three files and paste the new code from pastebin into the pdxmapshader.shader ?

1.29 broke the shader code a little; "CkCRZGTm" pastebin contains the fix -- I tried reaching out to the author to have the mod updated, but no luck so far :(
