:howdy Are you sure it's the Psekups River and not the Kuban River? The Kuban River is of the IMPASSABLE type Another thing - if the weather conditions = mud --> depending on the settings of the e-file, you will not cross the river edit It seems that the rivers in this e-file are impassable even in ...

I am not a Linux expert
- try other versions of Wine
- install the latest sound and video card drivers (if any)
- try several versions of the OG engine
- try other audio programs

Which game engine are you using DD(DirectDraw) or SDL2? All sounds are in mp3 format?
What is your default audio player?

How can I download mapX for this map?

sympatyk

Installing the game should be outside the system folder - e.g. C:\OpenGneral --> move the game folder from the desktop and try ..

sympatyk

What does "not working" mean?
The installation went smoothly and an icon (shortcut) was created on the desktop?
Not downloading maps?
Your antivirus/firewall - not blocking the game?
The game is installed in the system folder?

sympatyk

:howdy It is possible to work around the problem - Open the sound mixer of your audio device - find SDL Windows (OG game must be running) http://www.opengeneral.pl/sympatyk/ust_muz1.jpg - set the slider according to your preferences (replaces the 3rd slider in Media Settings - it will be your base f...

sympatyk

Yes, the third slider from the top does not work (SDL engine) --> you can only turn sounds on or off (button)
We are talking about sounds from the SFX catalog

Good luck

For the record, that was on Open Suite v.5.0.73.4 (7-Feb-2023), Open General is v.0.93.5.0 (July 22), both running on Win11 64-bit (although I doubt that part changes much ).

Your map --> my summer-winter conversion --> you are the father of this map

Who do I talk to about maps - do you see anyone else here?
Maybe you also want to do summer - winter conversions?

sympatyk

As I wrote, swamps can be distinguished by color and so I did --> you can of course do it differently --> and again the decision --> each person may like something different ... http://www.opengeneral.pl/sympatyk/Bag_1398.jpg For summer classic maps, the drawing of the swamp has been fixed/determine...

sympatyk

Forests are a separate layer and can have any shade (lighter - darker) When it comes to swamps, you can give them a distinctive shade... Generally, I approach winter maps in this way --> winter (especially in the east) = snow (white color) Snow first covers open spaces, swamps, meadows, clearings, a...

sympatyk

The number of layers will change during work --> they can be grouped, merged, but most importantly, signed. And returning to our conversation about converting maps to the winter version, you can determine the features that should be pursued --> e.g. you indicated gray roads You could also specify - ...

sympatyk

If everything is layered --> the work itself needs more time to decide - what setting to choose (several settings seem good) --> then decide whether a little more contrast, color, etc. Since there are no exactly the same maps --> converting each one, it's decisions again (despite using the same proc...

sympatyk

Thank you very much
I'll start work

Of course 100MB is a lot --> you can upload only the layers you need --> forest, cities, roads, railway (map 1065)

For me, the Internet was a big obstacle (I had a portable LTE) - now I signed a contract from March for 400/40Mb fiber

sympatyk

If you decide to share these layers with me as separate png or jpg files - I will be grateful - it will show your maps in winter version --> if you would like to see your other maps as winter - you can do that too --> I just need to develop a new one procedure for Gimp
Of course, as you wish

:howdy Instead of manually finding which icons have an alpha channel - you can subject all of them to an automatic process - removing the alpha channel (whether it is or not) --> you can use batch processing You open IrfanView You press the "B" key on your keyboard http://www.opengeneral.pl/sympatyk...

:howdy This issue was raised a few years back... Tile maps in their idea allow us to play when we do not have a picture, but only the .mapx itself. So what is the problem? --> making mapx in a tiled environment - defeats the purpose --> you should make mapx using the normal method (for example, usin...

Randowe, I agree with you

It was information for Luis
Remember when we talked about maps and Luis wrote

For automatic download, I upload the .jpg file received from mapmaker if available, otherwise I convert the .png file using IrfanView with a 70% compression ratio.

Only that

I don't have Photoshop - that's why I didn't participate in the discussion, but the topic interests me .. A little test I drew in gimp with a red brush...
