Game crashes using this mod with desert (dry) textures. Tropical and temperate works. I can generate a Dry map, but i can't play it. When loading the map, switch to temperate, it does work... Any ideas how i can still get a Dry, dessert map to work?

I'm facing a terrible lag with this mod, to generate the map itself or playing the early game too (for example, to expand a port, I need to wait a while for the new port buildings show in the map).

Does anyone know if this is normal or how to solve it?

Get absolutely stunning landscapes from this thank you.

Мод говна ебаного

this mod it's a must have when starting a new world, but is there a possibility to make the map to generate faster, or to use the GPU if that's possible, for creating the map, it really takes a massive toll on me when I keep changing the seed to get a nice looking map.

the second thing

Is this looking to be updated, or is it abandoned?

I noticed when trying to make a map using the desert preset, the game crashes upon loading the map. It gives me an error about missing a large tree for a town or something

unplayable map generator

I like this mod, but if I want to use a different terrain generator, I have to unsubscribe from this mod. Even choosing a different generator, even a vanilla (e.g. Tropical), it still defaults to Fantasia upon game start.

Perhaps the mod which most improves gameplay

Your mod takes precedence when you choose a different generator (for example Appalachian).

Appalachian map is generated, click Next, you change mods/settings, map is generated again (I don't know why) and hit play: Et Voila! You end up with a Fantasia map generated with the previous parameters...
It's the same for any generator (at least on 2 of my PC), you always end up with a Fantasia-generated map.

Do you know why this is happening?

@The_Kramer, best choice for this generator is to place towns and industries manually => don't auto-place stuff on the map you used this mod to create...

Very interesting map but almost all city are on river or lake and big chunk of map are empty except industries. I've tried lots of map with river and always spawn cities along. Slider should have double the tuning like in Terrain fever, the only choice are 0,25,50,75,100 and would be better for double the slots if you see what I mean.
Anyway great work!

Brulikrax,I had heard of a mod manager before, and when I tried it, it didn't work because it wasn't compatible with TF2, but I looked for a mod manager for TF2 again and found it. thank you.

takashigqgle, in your game mod manager sort the mods alphabeticaly. Thiss should fix your issue.

I had seen it many times in the past, but when I tried to find the generator, I searched on a map and a script, so I couldn't find it. I think there are still people who want to use it, so I think they'll be happy if we make it easier to find.

good mood

Thanks for this good mod

I like this generator, but as everything else, there are some things I found anoying:
- there are no snow caps (no big deal, I can paint them myself), it would have been nice to have some for the Temperate biom;
- when a river-lake is created there is not a lot of space around it for building. I hope that is fixable for within the mod (no big deal, I can terraform myself);
- the forced flat areas are not the lowest ones - planes - and occur on mountains => makes Platoes unusable and unrequired;
- Canions are a bit off to me as most of the time they create bizzar cuts in the terrain.
Other than these - it's perfect.

Holy hell, why didn't I find this earlier?! Tried many map generators but this is by far the most awesome one, thanks! Here, have a juicy award <3

Just Love what you have created...Thanks a lot and Happy 2024 New Year .

broke my map generator even when the mod is disabled I get random mountains or cliffs everywhere

This is by far the best map generator in Transport Fever! I love it, and I found the maps generated with this tool really fun to play!

The downside are the many mesas and steep cliffs, that make it impossible to connect some cities, and look quite unrealistic. So if you want a landscape with both rivers and mountains, you have to hit the refresh button several times to get a playable map (mesas and cliffs cannot be disabled in the menu).

But if you´ve tried any other map generator, you won´t see this little disadvantage as a problem. After all, it´s a great tool!

Finally I can play TF2 instead of TF1!!!
I tried every map generation I found. but non of them really featured the elevation variety I knew and loved from TF1. Now this game isn't a flat surface simulator anymore!!! Thank you You brought back the fun for me.

I kinda wish there is an option to make the map an island since I think there's no good temperate, dry, or tropical island generators.

It seems like this mod overwrites other generators? I've used Terrain Fever upon map creation but I still got a Fantasia map. Idk maybe im just dumb

I have updated the mod to include some of the most requested features. The generator should now work for all 3 climates instead of just temperate.

Version 1.4
-----------------------------------------
- Added map generator variant for dry climate
- Added map generator variant for tropical climate
- Added configuration option to adjust river width
- Added some detail to mesa cliffs

I have to say. I play this game occassionally, and I've messed with every terrain mod out there.. And this is by the far the most extensive, and epic one. It creates the most beautiful vistas, and terrain formations, that are both believable, realistic, and fantastical.

For some reason Steam won't download this one. Is it available on some other site?

Dear Author.
The mod is great for fantastic map generation however, when the industries generation, have you considered some of them appear near cities they need theirs goods? The normal generator is doing so pretty well to give you a start up.

Right now the factories generation is so random, that only makes sense to play the Fantasia generated maps on sandbox mode with unlimited money, normal start at 1850s is close to impossible and a huge grind if manage to make a start.

It doesn't work in map editor, does it? I tried and in the very end seemingly something goes wrong as it then becomes flat and empty again. Because towns are so close to rivers (at least in my map), that it's basically impossible to build bridges over them w/o destructing half the town

Absolut abgefahren, endlich ordentliche Karten. Top Job

This is VERY good, especially considering that it's a free mode.

It could be more polished, but it works well, and it was made for free by a presumably small team or single person.

Thank you, I absolutely LOVE this mod! It generates, by far, the best maps I've played for this game. No complaints. My previous fave was a mod that generates tropical islands but it did not create the range of diverse landscapes that this one does.

Is it possible to allow for diffrent climates?

This map gen is what game needed, base gen is horrible, but I also would love to have one for dessert climate, and tropical. Can't really play them with this generator due to map gen changing when I set different climate settings

I have only just started to play this game and yet I am astounded at the quality, scope and detail that this mod offers.
Simply amazing, thanks for creating and sharing it.
I have coupled it with Not So Temperate Generator for the snow peak aspect, seems to work a treat.
The maps generated, need some more testing, look good and if there is one feature I would like to see is the ability to change the width of the rivers applied to the map. I am guessing that is shipping is going to be a factor then the few maps I have seen so far, as well as wider bridging, will not be accommodated.
At least you could generate map previews more suited to what you would like, with a river width option, rather than leave it to a chance generation.

Thanks

this is the 2nd mods that does exactly this and there both for the exact same climate and no other kinda annoying

bloody amazing landscapes, a big thumb up from me with your town generator is super combination.

Possibly the best map generator right now. Every map it builds feels unique and almost hand crafted. I love it!

I love this mod, the terrain is very unique and looks good, thanks dude.

Looks really interesting, I've been looking for a map generator designed to produce interesting gameplay. Thanks a lot!

Hi Phil, thanks! It worked! Super! Great mod! It adds so much depth that I wonder why the makers did not add that in. Just for the record; in your instructions you write "You do not have to enable it in the mod settings". You might want to change that text then!

This is great, love it. Thanks for making this one. It creates a new level off mapmaking.

Love the mod - used it to generate the map for my new YouTube series (have added a link to the mod as well)

You can find the first episode here - https://youtu.be/svxBVQXe9jw

Keep up the great work

Good water but the hills are very stepped also adds a new forest ground brush.

@eduard.vooren To make them appear in the map editor you'll actually have to enable them in the mod settings (tick the "Custom" checkbox and then enable them in the "Settings..." menu). Also make sure you are loading the editor in the temperate climate, else they won't appear.

Hi Phil42, I subscribed to both of your mods (including the Not So... mod), but they don't appear in the Generator menu of the Map Editor. I tried with ticking Custom on and off, but no cigar... I am sure I am doing something wrong, but what?

One of the best mods seen - cheers

I cannot stop generating maps. Thank you so much.
