Just hang tight though OP. Let me update the font on the small map, and I might have to reposition some army circles.

new font is uuuuuuugggggggggly

I think it'd look better if you reduced the size a bit…

Damn. Maybe I'll try something different again.

I'll wait for you to let me know when it's time then.

I am not sure about the electric green impassible. It does not seem to fit with the rest of the map. The background gives a light forest feel and the colors second that but that electric green seems out of place.
I can't wait for this to go through, I don't play Brazil now, it's to hard to look at.

i don't know if your still looking for someone to do xml (I have not read the whole thread) but i would love to do it if it is still open

OP got it already

Yeah - Optimus Prime was the first to ask. And he still wants it.

Here's the final images. There's not much else I can do with this map. The fonts are a bit different again, but very plain. The green non-crossing borders will stay as they are. OP - if you want to start the recentering of the xml - be my guest.

On the small map, where you have "GFX Revamp RjBeals", the GFX looks like GRX

It doesn't just look like it, it actually says GRX.

Well, I went to start the re-centering today, but the problem I have is that the mapmaker tool found at: http://conquerclub.com/mapmaker cuts off the images on the right side and the bottom so I can't see all the territories.

That didn't happen when I did the centering for gimil on the British Isles REVAMP.

EDIT: Tried it on several computers, but got the same result.

Suggestions?

Adjust the map width & height on the xml file

Ah, will give that a try. Will report back if I have further problems.

Fixed

<smallwidth>551</smallwidth>
<smallheight>480</smallheight>
<largewidth>716</largewidth>
<largeheight>624</largeheight>

Change to:

<smallwidth>600</smallwidth>
<smallheight>592</smallheight>
<largewidth>750</largewidth>
<largeheight>740</largeheight>

I think the color of Boa Vista and Porto Velho should be lightened slightly to make them stand out more from the background. I know the current color matches the color of the bonus region, but I think it blends with the light green in the background a bit too much. Perhaps add a slight outer glow, or simply match the font color from Sao Paulo and others to make it more legible.

By the way, this is a beautiful revamp

will do sully - good feedback - thanks!

I also just realized I uploaded the wrong large map. The most recent ones has some of the borders tweeked. I'll upload the correct one in a few minutes.

Revised:
Updated Borders only on large map. Actually on the previous image, i just had the wrong layer turned on.
Updated light green territs appearing off the map.

Thanks Rocket... I guess I'll sit back quietly now and wait for Final Forge.

I don't know if I've posted in this thread yet (due to the amount of time it's been up ) but this is easily one of my favorite maps visually

FF !!

Alright, here is the small map with the XML properly centered. I think I have them all, but a second set of eyes checking it over is always good. Also, I fixed all the UTF-8 character set problems that were in the old file from the original map. The XML now has the proper character set declaration at the top and the proper entities within for the special characters in territory names.

I'll do the large map tomorrow. Right now I need to get some other work finished.

They look good to me...
