As requested in the Think Tank section, a grid in Defcon would be nice. So I've taken it upon myself to have a quick knock-up.

Copied from my post in that section:

...It should be easy to make the lines brighter by messing with the style, but this may have undesirable side-effects. Otherwise, there isn't any really acceptable way to do it.

How's this for a mock-up? I've scaled up the water.bmp file 400%, so it's a lot higher resolution, and so the lines are finer. There's a bit of an annoying wrap in the middle of the Pacific, which makes one "square" the wrong width (unfortunately just out of shot) but apart from that, it's a start Very Happy

(the below screenshot is slightly compressed, so it's not quite perfect-looking)



And here you can try it. Smile

Readme:
Code:
shinygerbil's GridCon v0.1

another copy+paste readme from shinygerbil :)

To get this to work, you'll need to go to Options -> Graphics -> Show Water and set it to Normal (as opposed to disabled or shaded.)


Instructions:


If you're using zanzer7's ModLoader (which in my opinion is the only way to go) just put this in the Defcon directory (which is C:\Program Files\Defcon by default)

Otherwise, find the "data" folder (which should be in the folder mods\GridCon\ inside this RAR file) and put that in the Defcon directory instead.

Enjoy!

Let me know what needs to be changed, and I'll see what I can do Very Happy
