That is what the colorize effect does - sets the colour.

The HSL effect works with the colours as they stand, so that if you have a blue rooftop you can change the hue by increasing or decreasing it around the colour circle, increase or decrease the saturation of it (that one is the wrong way around for my way of thinking, since negative numbers increase the brilliance of the colour). Lightness is the easiest of the controls, being reasonably self explanatory.

So whatever colour your roof is, these settings would make it 5% further along the spectrum (for example if you start with blue it will go more violet). With the Saturation set to -10 that will make the colour of things on that sheet 10% more garishly bright, and the Lightness value will make them darker by 30%.

This is an adjustment, rather than a setter. It's like messing with the settings on your monitor.

Hi Everyone! :D

This week, Ralf will be starting a large and ongoing city mapping project that will stretch over multiple sessions at irregular intervals.

You can watch it right here if you like:

Great map, Jeff :)

If you are having difficulty with the domed temple building you can make a copy of it in a separate subfolder (for modified symbols) and edit it in a bitmap editor. Modified symbols can't be shared, but they often solve a few colour issues for a special map.

You would need to copy and rename both the image and it's map file (just the VH versions) and keep the names of those files identical with one another while removing the VH suffix, then import the modified building with the Symbol Manager. Be careful not to alter the size of either image or the map file will no longer work to make the dome look round.

An example of a renamed Temple including my own initials to indicated a modification would be...

No. There are only 8 steps in 100, so every 12.5 units is a step.

You can get more subtle effects by setting the Strength to zero and duplicating the effect.

There doesn't seem to be an EFI effect on that sheet. Maybe ok that RGB Matrix Process and then add one?

Nice use of the fire symbols :)
