📋 About This Mod

Have you ever grown tired with how sloppy and inaccurate the map looks like in vanilla EU4? This submod aims to change it and replace all the inaccurate terrain with something more sophisticated while being as compatibility-friendly as possible. With this addon come reworked coastlines, terrain textures and provinces' borders for most played regions of the world. While new coastline adds a lot of missing irl features, reworked provinces offer much more detailed borders (especially showing actual bordergore that was the HRE) of both historical and alternative scope. At last, expanded wastelands create more strategic passes and holdings. Main Features: - Reworked regions include: Central & North America, ALL of Europe, Middle East, Indian Ocean, ALL of Africa, ALL of Asia - Reworked, much more detailed coastline for all of regions above - Redrawn provinces' borders in listed regions. Those allow for recreating most of real-life borders throughout game's history without adding any new provinces. - Overhauled and detailed terrain textures. This comes down to editing terrain.bmp file, which gives land its colour and texture. In vanilla EU4, this is eather sloppy or inacurate in some places. - Removed desert terrain in north of Florida (YES, it was a thing), Central and Northern India, Azerbaijan, Burma, Thailand and Central China - Western Persia is now drylands instead of desert - Italy, Spain, Provence and Greece have brighter, much warmer terrain texture to represent mediterranean climate - Removed sloppy lines between terrain types in many regions, instead adding much smoother transition - Added hill/montainous terrain textures to many missing ranges and highlands - Swamp regions are better distributed across Polesie and Northern Europe with better blending - Expanded lakes in few regions (look at the Finland! also Ethiopia and Aral Sea) - With new coastline comes a bunch of smaller islands that were missing in base game (look Mediterranean and SEA) - Venice is no lo
