A dark map with more natural colour.
This edition combines deep navy water with green landscapes, earth tones and detailed shaded relief, giving you a darker background while keeping the terrain’s colour and character.
Built from the established Light V2.1 colour sources, it preserves the existing geography, island positions, terrain layout and zoom settings.
Features
- Dark navy water and naturally coloured terrain.
- Detailed mountains, coastlines and shaded relief.
- North America and surrounding regions.
- Background coverage for ATMX, Grand Utopia of America and Beyond’s Pacific islands.
- Includes the V2.1 World Map interface correction.
- Designed with 4K displays in mind and usable at lower resolutions.
