Give me a couple of weeks, and I will come up with something. After working on a part-time consulting basis for nearly a year now, I landed a full time job again, so not as much time to play around with OTTD. The Memorial Day weekend here in the States (and my desire to conserve my cash until regular paychecks start coming in again) have given me a couple of days to work out at the gym, drink a beer with the neighbors, and play some OTTD, but I will be a busy puppy come Tuesday... :|

Great heightmaps! I wish the game's terrain generator could make maps like that! :D

Do you have any island heightmaps?

Sounds great. I'll be waiting :-)

I would prefer a square map, but any sizes from 256x256 to 1028x1028 would be fine. :D

Maybe something that could be used as a mountainous tropical/desert island or an arctic island that has a mixture of relatively flat desert/tundra land and mountains. But I'm not asking for a specially made map or anything, just whatever you have already made. You definitely do not have anywhere as much free as I do. ;) Maybe I should use my free time to try to make a heightmap myself. There needs to be more original heightmaps made anyways because most of the real-world heightmaps made are too bland IMO.

I have been quite busy with work, but here's a 2048x2048 heightmap emphasizing several different watersheds separated by extensive mountain ranges. I spent some more time hand-drawing this one to minimize the "cratering" effect others had noted with my earlier works. Hope this is an improvement...
