Thank you. I'll add them after the competition ends. Please remind me if I forget.

The axial tilt is 25 degrees.

I haven't noticed this before, but it does seem that something weird happens to the hyperlink if you change text properties on it using the change properties dialog. I've reported this to the developer.

For now, I recommend being careful with change properties and make sure only the text is selected and not the hyperlink (You can always make hyperlinks temporarily visible from the View Menu)

You should be able to make new ones though, at least I was able to after reproducing your issue. Just make sure to draw the hotspot properly around the entire text to link, the hotspot is a separate rectangle, not actually part of the text.

The menu_recovery.bat is a file installed by the various Vintyri-addons (CSUAC, Dundjinni Archive, etc) and is intended for use with those products.

I asked about the anti-virus because some of them can be a bit eager locking the files while they scan, preventing legitimate access long enough for a program to error out, but at this time, it was more of an exploratory question rather than nailing it as a culprit. It could be the issue, but it might just as well have nothing to do with it.

It is hard tracking down the problem, but it doesn't really seem Vintyri-related. The Menu_recovery.bat calls the standard CC3MenuConfig command, and based on the text in those error messages, it seems like a lot of errors are thrown from the "default" pass where it process the official CC3+ menu config file (Menu_recovery.bat first does a run to process the Vintyri-provided file, then finishes up by the standard PF one.)

But if it works for you after manual editing, I guess that is at least an acceptable workaround.

I like the idea about making songs for your world. Pretty interesting what you can do with these new tools these days. It makes the world come alive in a way that was impossible before (unless you have a musician friend with ample spare time).

The link to the high-res version of your image doesn't seem to work. You may wish to post it in your gallery here on the forum instead.

They're also all listed with a brief description in the accompanying program manual, page 65 and onwards in the current version.

If you want a smaller area, I suggest you look at an area on one of the existing regional maps rather than straight on the continent map. That should allow you to find something more akin to the scale it sounds you are looking for. Or you can make 2 maps, do this larger scale one, and then develop a section of that map further on the second map.

But as for adding features like a lake, of course. The basic premise with any atlas is that there will always be features that are too small to appear on the higher level maps, that will only appear on a detail. Main idea here is to just keep it small enough that it wouldn't realistically appear on the world map (Which in general would mean smaller than any lake that do appear on that map.) But do make sure to add lots of interesting features, that's part of the fun, and allows other mappers to make interesting detail maps from your map.

Usually, the better number to look at is the value listed under "Single Thread Performance", not the MHz numbers. The performance numbers are computed from actual tests ran on the CPU and gives a number easier to compare than the MHz ones.

(The main "CPU Mark" number in that table is the multi-core performance)

Going back to the MHz numbers, also note that the CPU can only maintain turbo speed for a limited amount of time (unless you are fond of playing around with overclocking) so it is generally helpful for short burst of activity needing a bit of extra push, but is useless for longer computations.

Unfortunately, there were complications after the second part of his surgery. He's been in medical care since then, and hasn't been able to come by the forum.

His condition is not good, and we are not expecting him to return anytime soon, if at all.
