I like the wider rivers. With those u could do like major and minor rivers in mods. That is if u can set it up like that.

You can have only one set of rivers. Even though there are mountain rivers and delta rivers, the actual rivers are a mix of both and across flat land both files tiles are intermixed.

Mind you, as you may know, I have demonstrated on my Canals Preview Thread http://forums.civfanatics.com/showthread.php?t=120985 (I think you will find it on Post#50) that you can have major rivers that actual can allow ships to go up river.

to bad on my idea then. It would have been cool to see both types of rivers used. Easy crossable little rivers and then the Big non crossable major rivers. Unless u had cities as the gate way for crossing. U could then really do a ( Bridge to Far ) type mod.

But on a side note then. once u finish the Canals could u do a version for Jokers terrian. I know we could use that in the SST mods with some of the other stuff u have done. With Credit of course.

The wide rivers look good, but I think I prefer the regular ones. Like Bjornlo said, it looks like a small boat ahould be able to navigate them. I don't really like the bridge idea either, because it doesn't make sense for a crossing to cost 1 MP before engineering when there is a visible bridge spanning the river.

I don't use Jokers terrain, but maybe I will have a look at it later, I would have to match the colours up with Jokers coastal waters.

May be a bit of work,

or maybe if I pasted over top of his palette for the delta rivers and the mountain rivers files maybe would could get lucky and it may be no work.

Would you be able to posts joker's deltaRivers.pcx and mtnRivers.pcx, so I don't have to load his whole mod.

It is not clean, as you can see the colours are different for each file, so there are some dark tiles and some light. I will have to make them from scratch (from joker's original files), which will take a lot more time.

Have you tried the files I have already posted on joker's terrain, they may work as is.

I think it may be unrealistics to have blue rivers, so here is a preview of brown rivers. Just a concept, don't know what the actual colour should be.

Thoughts/comments.

Could be used as the Ganges river, perhaps?

Pounder · Jun 19, 2007

I thought that I would play around with making the deltas larger because they were still having problems with the fact that every terrain is a different size and the deltas don't start and end on the same place on each terrain.

So by making them as large as possible they can help to clover up this flaw.

Tell me what you think. I could make a couple of other changes while I'm working on this file.

I yhink they're nice!

kairob · Jun 20, 2007

I like them!

I suggest you use the database and you can have virtually unlimited files.

I have widened and extended them further into the sea so that the problem with them not reaching the water/sea is gone and if the are a little in land the they cut the terrain into islands.

Pounder · Jul 14, 2007

Posted downloads on post #49 (supersized deltas) and post #53 (extended deltas).

Pounder · Aug 12, 2007

I know others have done this kind of thing before, well here is my version.

I think Rivers with banks look better when they go through jungles and forests and over irrigation.

I have also used the extended deltas so that the river delta always makes it to the sea.

You need to use both these files together, place in the terrain folder, don't forget to save your originals.

I like the banks, good work. :goodjob:

Pounder · Aug 19, 2007

Here is the other shot that was on the preview thread.

odintheking · Aug 19, 2007

Those banks, are perfect, dude. I always had a problem with rivers looking like they were on top of trees and stuff.

CivAnon · Aug 19, 2007

I have DL'ed them as promised! They will definitely be featured in our mods. Thanks you!
