And here is my vid tutorial for this (It doesn't show mountains, complex terrains, or detailed forests, but it can be done fairly quickly and looks nice.):

Tell me what you think (Please :smallbiggrin:)

impossible! Paint could't possibly produce something good!

Nice job.

Nice effort, but you probably get more done with the same work if you use a better program than paint. :smallwink:

Thanks for the tutorials! I've been looking for a good way to make campaign maps.

Does anyone happen to know how to calculate what would happen to the continential placement on the planet on the account of a sudden meteor strike strong enough to strip a section of the crust off the planet and cause riduculous seismic activity?

I need to know in order to make this campaign's map as realistic as possible.

That sounded kinda insulting for somebody that works in Paint.

Not.:smalltongue:

Nice work, those maps look very good.

calculate? do you mean something the size of the moon tearing a bite out of the earth or what?

I'm afraid that such an impact is too violent for any continent to survive the sudden pressure release from the earth's core. After everything cools down, I'm assuming that a thin layer of solid rock is formed on the scar, which will feel the pressure from other tectonic plates that are rapidly moving in the open space. I imagine a thin and very rimpled surface on the scar, and surrounding tectonic plates closing in on it, while ofcourse widening the gap between them where they feel the pressure from.

For example, the atlantic rift is pushing north america and europe further from eachother. If the scar would occur on the american plate, then the atlantic ocean would drastically widen.
