*installs toned down mod*
That's better.

I've been using this map and adore it. Thank you for making it!

А русский вариант есть?

I'm currently working on a big project, but for the life of me can't figure out how to modify the GUI map. All the mods I've found include a .dds file in the mod/gui/gfx folder but that hasn't seemed to work for me. Can you advise?

Me encantó mi hermano, muchas gracias.

best mod ive seen

I.. would actually love these maps of yours as just pure PNGs, tbh.

nice

@Lemon Man, sure, maybe next week.

@Neman, I didn't use any existing software. I just wrote several python scripts for hillshading and other stuff.

can we get a version for accurate zones patch, and further, a toned down + accurate zones patch version? if its not too much trouble :P

Great job! This is going to my collection of favorite topographic map mods.
Did you use WorldMachine for rendering or some GIS?

Beautiful work!

@cougar206 nice idea. I removed zone colors and toned down water a bit. Now I also use that version:
Satellite map - toned down

If Kenshi regions were American states lmao

If the colors could be toned down by about 50% I could use this map. As it is the colors are just to jarring when you open the map.

Just want to say that is some amazing work man

@NeMex505 Done, check here:
Satellite map - landscape only
Satellite map + roads

though maybe I should add a request for a version with the road overlays only too?

wait, wheres the version without the zone overlays?

thank u so much

@👁️⃤Singu ꧅🥲⃤⃞⃟
I will surely make versions for both vanilla and modded zones.

@Genik Couldn't you use this thing as base? https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3379831802

I'm aware that even with that, the zone borders aren't smooth, but "jagged" when passing over them, but since it's one of the most popular ones, it might be a good reference.

Doing God's work with your research! Looking forward to hearing more :-)

Really glad people are enjoying it — thanks for the comments!
Of course, I would like to add zone borders, but ones that are super precise, pixel-perfect. Unfortunately, I’ve discovered that the game processes areasmap.png with some kind of mistake. Right now I’m investigating this behavior, and I’ll upload an updated version of the map as soon as I either solve the mystery or give up trying.

The problem is — the mistake is sometimes so big that, for example, while standing right in the middle of Iron Trail, the game says you’re in Purple Sands.
I’ve gone deep to render this map properly, and now I must go even deeper to find out how the game really calculates its zone borders.

Thanks for your patience!

Ok if we get this + accurate zones overlay, we reached Top Kenshi Map quality.

Beautiful

@Synopse I know

Hi everyone!
Sorry for the misleading description earlier — “use at your own risk” was just a joke referring to the lack of zone borders and city locations on this map.
I’ve updated the description to make that clearer — there are no issues with using the mod.

It's a joke. Just take responsibility when you use a mod...

''Use at your own risk'' Little sus if you ask me

Yeah thats not reassuring at all. Hey download my mod! use at your own risk.

What does the "Use at your own risk," thing mean? Are there problems with installing and uninstalling?
