    I think this would be a fun map to play on. Nice and flat port city with some mountains surrounding it. A nice river delta map has long been overdue. I've been longing for some good river islands.

    If this mod is made, then please add a Little Boy Bomb mod. That would be too perfect!

    That's really insensitive to the Japanese members

    I think Osaka could work as well if you don't want to make this map. I'd prefer Hiroshima for it's more defined rivers, though.

    Just had a quick look on Google maps and roughly measured out how much are we would get in the map (keeping it to scale)

    Hey, the Japanese were the ones who started it with America. Hiroshima and Nagasaki were just the US' ways of finishing it. I am proud of those two days.

    Funny how no one said when the Pearl Harbour map was released that they wish kamikaze planes were made. Just goes to show how much of a dickhead you are.

    Probably best if you keep shitty opinions to yourself otherwise you won't be here for long.

    To add a bit of historical knowledge to your mind:
    1) One of the leading persons for the nuclear bomb program,
    General Curtis LeMay, was called by former Secretary of State,
    Robert McNamara, to have said that in case US had lost the war, they
    would have been all prosecuted as war criminals for crimes against humanity.
    In the same statement, McNamara clarifies that their doings had been
    wrongdoings even as they won the war.
    2) It has never been clear whether the dropping of the bombs had been necessary.
    Neither before nor after the bombings.
    3) The Battle at Pearl Harbor was lead within the same class of weapons.
    Furthermore, the Japanese Forces did not intentionally attack civilians,
    but rather concentrated on the military bases.
    4) No one, simply no one who is a civilian of either the former Allied States, the Russian Federation, Japan or Germany, should say that his/her nation did NOT commit really really questionable actions within WWII.


    Edit: now back to the topic, the map looks very good @skullz613 !!!

    The pictures I posted before were just off Google maps.This is the actual map in world machine.

    The mountains are coming along. Was having a few issues with them so have taken a break. I need erosion on them but it keeps affecting the base layer.

    @Funky, What did you mention last time that would stop it from happening? A clamp device?

    Yes, I know you did not post actual World Machine screenshots,
    but I could anticipate how it would end :D
    And it looks great, as always. Maybe just the coastline out of the harbour area
    being refined a bit? Talking of the little islands/peninsulas on the right side...

    Nah, use a height device. Plug that into the mask input of your erosion device and play with the sliders until the lower areas aren't affected.

    You can right click on the overlay view and select the second option(I think it's lock preview) so that when you play around with the height selector it stays on the the finished view.
