I use Adobe Photoshop for converting the map image but I understand that it can be done in MS Paint just as well. I don't recall exactly what PNG is an acronym for, but I once heard it described as Probably Not a GIF. An interlaced PNG image will work but there's really no need for it to be interlaced and I believe a non-interlaced PNG may be a bit smaller. Once downloaded that image must be rendered into a PNG. Skye's Building Zurich (which I strongly recommend viewing) uses a precision that yields 512 map segments. The program can be purchased for about $35 for those wanting more precision. The image for an 18 Sq Km section comes in 30 segments which can be stiched together via the Map Combiner tool that is part of the program. Music in video is 'Copyright-free', and available for all that wishes to use it, a song called 'As Above, So Also Below', artist unfortunately unknown.The Google Maps Downloader will download images at a zoom of 13 for free which is precise enough for most users. I also recommend a new map guide I've found lots of useful map information, as well as the maps themselves, now that I've updated the guide with Airports DLC and Map Pack maps, but for those that want to see even more info then what can be found in this guide, there's a neat webpage at: Ĭomplete Collection of The Vanilla Maps, IN THE ORDER THEY APPEAR IN VIDEO (I will also upload them all for a safe, encrypted https download, for those that want to download the maps): Then, not long ago I found a page on google (not secure link) that have all the maps, for all the DLC - Campus included! I don't know whom to give the credit for those maps, but it really saved me a lot of work, that I was only halfway into but link to page is: Only those maps don't tell that some lack certain transportation options, and that's quite important, as well as total area that can be used for building, so I've written down all those details and just now published another guide where I have chose the top 10 maps based on having all resources, all transports and the most amount of buildable area. I've been on the lookout for the maps for Cities Skylines, and there's one great page called The Skylines Planning Guide:, where I've earlier have had the pleasure to study all the base game maps (not included the DLC maps), with all 25 tiles, how much wind, the resources, where they are and planning nice spots for industrial zones, parks, future dams, transportation, where to build 'Downtown' and where to keep to suburbs etc. All Vanilla (City Skylines With All DLC Included) Maps
