First of all let me say I love Snoopy's Terrain mod. I use it all the time. But I did have a prblem differentiaing between sea and ocean at times. I've lost a galley or two because of this and thought I would take a stab at making them more defined (like his coast/sea). So I used his coast/sea transitions and did a little color matching. What do you think?

Note you have to have Snoppy's mod installed first to make it look right.

Great work, although I actually like the fact that it's hard to tell whether you're in Ocean or Sea tiles. In real life, sailors really can't see what's under the surface either, right? So no, I won't use it.
 
Wow - that looks great... very nice work! I will use this, most definately.

Looking at those ridges and actual visible depths of water has given me an idea for what could be a useful landmark terrain - a terrain that would have that same effect, but on land with highlands - just plain old, flat land, but visibly at a higher elevation.

Anyway, thanks for making these much improved water graphics.
 
Firstly, very nice graphics.

Hey, that's a fabulous idea! The game could really use some plateau-like highlands. Maybe as LM hills? Imagine that rising up from a mass of jungle!
 
Looks pretty nice! :)

Check out the Rhye's of Civilization mod...
 
Thanks guys. Feel free to make changes if you like. I'm not the type to get offended.
 
I like the changes. I doubt it will make me loose less galleys but that's a whole different topic. :goodjob:

BTW: I've mussed around with your Avatar a bit and I Think I've improved it :hmm: I think it's a bit sharper anyhow.

Use it if you like it...If not....don't
Even though the size says it's 4065 bytes it should still fit in the size requirements. If not let me know.

That would be useful! Would work well for the Nile Valley, for instance.
 
Thanks Misfit for the avatar.

And Pounder, your reef looks pretty good. The two mods go well together.
