How do you prevent square patterns on diagonal coasts?
Posted: Sun Dec 23, 2007 11:10 am
I searched the forms and RTFM, but I may not have used the right terms, so sorry if this is a repeat or covered somewhere else.
I am using a 96x96 DM and have a few long, diagonal coastlines. Once the DM is calculated I end up with jagged coasts that clearly follow the outlines of the DM squares. The coast squares are 15m and the squares next to them are 0m. Can't think of why that would matter, but just in case...
Is there a way to get the smooth coasts I want using the DM and the automatic calculation of the HF?
If not I can fix it with saphire or photoshop at the HF level, but that means I can not simply recalc if I want to make a change on a large portion of the map.
Thank you for any help or suggestions.
