Hi, nope, you can use any LUT you like. Graphics have changed a bit since I made this, so something else might look better, even. I'll remove it as a requirement

Is photorealistic a hard requirement or just needed to function as intended?

Hurrah! I am really looking forward to seeing what you do with this! I think mine is still too saturated looking, but I gave up fighting with it and used an LUT to do the job :D.

Wow, thank you for this very quick and uncomplicated service! That's what i need! I also really appreciate that you make your valuable work freely available. (This is fantastic "free" as in artistic "freedom", not like "free" as in gratis "free beer". If I'm going to chance it and publish with it, I refer to you as original author ["Urheber"].)

Oh by the way, it worked! :-D

Thanks, danke, merci!

The devs just issued a patch, and one of the things they repaired was a bug with map themes. Perhaps there is a theme-related mod that now needs to be updated. If having the local theme doesn't work either, then unsub from any mod related to map themes, totally restart Steam and try again. If it works then, you know one of those mods now has to be updated because of the patch. Let me know if this happens to you so I can report it.

Hi Himmelslinien. That's bizarre! It just downloaded for me. Yes, you do need this as your base map theme if you want the names to appear.

To make sure you can use it, here is the original file which you will place locally (and also you can do what you want with the theme to make it your own). This should be foolproof (fingers crossed). Unsubscribe from this Workshop version of the theme.

The theme file: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1q6c1BPtROTrJ9qM1x_QynIMHvyv6XKAb/view?usp=sharing

Place it here: C:\Users\YOURUSERNAME\AppData\Local\Colossal Order\Cities_Skylines\Addons\MapThemes

Hi Mr. Miyagi. Thanks for your great work! I love it!
I would like to use this theme on your Fjordland map. I've subscribed to it, but I can't choose it. Not even with (temperate) savegames. It is also not in the content folder (1774582619=no matches). I have unsubscribed and resubscribed again. Restart the game. But nothing changes. Now I ask myself, do I need a mod for the individual names? Or do I have to download the textures separately? Thank you! 🖖

Woohoo

This works perfect, thank you.

Hi fun.baker, unfortunately no. Rather than being able to import a list, the vanilla naming system requires you to enter each and every name individually (also for each level of the same building lol), so it would require going in and manually deleting each single entry. Needless to say, I'm never making another theme with custom names.
Try out using TPB's Theme Mixer mod. Pick another map theme as your base theme, and then add in textures from this map theme. Wild guess, but maybe the base theme will determine naming (ie default naming) as it does the other settings that can't be changed in Theme Mixer. Just might work.

Is there a version without the name list? Not that i dont want to appreciate anyones work, but it looks like they are causing some breakage with the german namelist mod.

Thanks MrMiyagi. I couldn't choose theme while starting a new game, but I can with a saved city. BTW Great map and theme. It looks amazing.

That's a known little glitch in the game, PuRu, but not to worry, it's harmless. Click on another map or save game on the list, then click again on Fjordland or your city to load, and this theme will appear this time.

Huh, I can't choose this map theme from a list for Fjordland map (Mass Transit). It says 'none'.

Can't wait to play with the map you're working :P

Yep, that makes sense - I forgot about Industries 8-0

Wait, for map creators? If you're creating a map and you want to make your own theme based on mine, go right ahead! :) Just give thanks to the texture creators like I do on my map theme page descriptions ^ :)

Hi Sir SheikhsPears! Thanks for your kind words and helpful suggestions! I would have used oil, actually, were this to remain purely an Alps theme. It's intended for a redux of my map Fjordland. Given that there is/was a lot of oil offshore (since Industries we have to put resources offshore), it didn't make sense to have bright white resources on the ground. Ore would be inconceivable (insert Princess Bride meme). So I went with sand. What you *can* do is use Theme Mixer mod and use this as the base mod, swap this theme's sand as snow texture for another theme's sand, and the oil here for Alps European's oil as snow. There is at least one other that uses oil as snow. Just be careful how many themes you add if your RAM is nearing the limit

As always: You are amazing, Mr. Miyagi.

However, it would be great if you would keep the Oil Texture for snow, while for the Falling
Leaves devote Sand Texture.
First of all, it's more intuitive for Map Creators who have used the European version, use Oil for snow.
Second - and more importantly: both Themes would be compatible with each other.
I'm also curious about how my European map would look like in the Temperate version :D

But cool - these are just my suggestions ;)

Big thx for sharing your passion with all C:S community!
Respect!

looks great Miyagi! i love it :)

Zyal look below at my answer to Zivouine :) It's coming

Can you give us the name of the map please

Thanks MrMaison! :) A perfect home environment for your new birch tree!

Looks awesome!

Hi, it's coming soon! :) We have to publish map themes first, connect them to the map, and then we can publish the map. This weird process makes it seamless for you guys, no error messages (we hope :D ).

Hi, which map is it?
