This is an amazing job! :)
Now, I wonder what kind of conflicts I am going to find with the North mod.

It's probably not a good idea to run this with The North. There's so much in The North mod that is designed for the terrain and temperatures built into that mod.

Well, I'm not about to ask for a compatible versiĆ³n besides we should test and see.

Ok, I'm playing the North. I installed this mod (yes, I got out and got back in). I got the choices for terrain size, and climates, but the terrain types are the North ones. No choice for Lush anything or Open anything.

I know this might be a silly question - but - did you place this mod above The North in the list?

Hmmmm.....no, just below it. Let me check this......


Edit: Yup, that was it. Started  game with Open Valley/Small/Temperate......plays fine. Appears to work ok.

good information.i was curious as to how much other mods can be used to affect the north.

Played around with it some earlier.  @Discrepancy seems to have really dialed it in nicely with this one.

Things that stood out:  The textures are very nice.  Multiple types of "green" terrains are lovely, for me at least, as that's generally my preference.  One of them looks like a nice putting green surface while another is more varied and rugged looking.  Lovely!  Unlike the other mod I use for Plains, he seems to have completely eliminated the annoying random hills, and that's perfect for a lot of situations.  Options for with and without lakes is fantastic.  And in X Large you only get one large lake as opposed to the five and is common.  The Tiny size offers a new option for challenging play, if you were already a fan of doing that on small maps.

Haven't played with the climates yet but looking forward to it.

Excellent addition that offers some welcome additions that will not just be fun to play with and nice to look at, but will be a big time saver, too.  Many, many thanks!

Glad everyone is liking it.

I understand the Desert maps look a bit unusual with the vanilla trees, I hope to eventually add some new trees I'm working on, but will be added separate as the Start conditions are what dictates the trees on the map.

Just so you all now - working fine so far with all the Necora mods and the Nat Div Mod!  Yippee!

@ Discrepancy :D Great job - Thank you so much, although I have not tried it yet, I'm at the stage of playing "The North" - I do not know how this mod will behave? Greetings :D

It Works fine as long as you place it on top.

@Discrepancy Talk to @kralyerg about getting some help with palm trees and cactus.

I do already have some palms trees, I also have some other trees and bushes made but they aren't looking good in game.

Descrepancy, hon, since you have a sand terrain, may I suggest a project to provide grass hut type buildings, and maybe a bamboo/aloe bush type greenery mod for a truly island feel? I do like those palm trees btw. They look fine to me.

(I know about Red's Beach Party, it's nice but it's just a house, and a bit too, um bright for me, and not island-like.)

Hospital can be a bamboo type wall enclosure with hammocks maybe?

There are house mods, yes, but I'm looking for a village.

Just an idea. The boats from your Jetty mod would look great on the shores!!!


Also I may just combine the Mexican buildings mod with the Desert clime too!  :)

Twilight breeze, maybe the Xhosa Houses by Angainor88 would be suitable for your purpose for now.  They are round huts with grass roofs.  http://worldofbanished.com/index.php?action=downloads;sa=view;down=377

Those are nice, but I want a continuous village. I am using the Celtic mod right now, that way I get most of a village.

Thanks for your cool terrain textures. I especially liked the map Mountain Lakes, but on a Large map for me so the lakes are quite small. You can do make lakes bigger if you can.
