Is there a link? Sounds very useful.

I also require the link

Boltbait's plugin pack, under the Outline Selection tool, pick a width of 1, Anti aliasing on, you may have to remove the anti aliased pixel (or not) using the recolouring tool depending on if you want outlines with only directly adjacent pixels or not.

Also includes a few useful tools for gradients, shadows and pattern repeating.

Hows this?

Man I really need to start using GIMP. Doing the outlining in Paint.net took way too long. Thanks for the advice!

That could be an alternative way to show UE or some other alliances, such as the Entente in WW1: instead of an outline around the nation, an outlined national color filled in with the alliance color.

Isn't it how you now show subject states (outline - national color of subject state, fill - overlord state)?

Start Time is 3:26:00

EDIT:
End time 4:21:30, just under 1 hour. Most of that was cleaning up provincial borders, which unfortunately still have to be done manually.
EDIT 2:
Disregard that, just noticed I messed up Argentina. Counting that, end time is 4:28:40, just over 1 hour.

This is going to be massively useful, for pretty much any map that displays client/puppet states with modern borders. Thank you.

I just hope my instructions are clear enough that someone can do it themselves.

Oh, and I fixed a few lakes and stray pixels:

“How many states should exist?”
Chinese warlords: Yes

Here is a couple of transparent Q-BAM maps for my TL, showcasing both the flags & subdivisions of the Soviet Union & Mongolia. Pretty normal by all means, but it's my first time doing a transparent map, & I figured I'd share.

-Flags-

-Subdivisions-

Not bad, but the Soviets didn't annex Tuva until the tide turned during WWII. If it is shown as annexed here, need to get the Baltic states and the areas the Soviets gained to the south of that.

I probably should've mentioned that this is an alternate USSR centered on the present day. WW2 doesn't happen, but a war with Japan does. A minor detail with the USSR is the Volga German ASSR & Moldavian ASSR still existing. Of course there are also modern borders for the SSRs & ASSRs, sort of being unrealistic, I know.

That Was the rule in the old UCS, yes. But with so Many schemes in use now, I’m not sure it’s still that way

I thought the fill was what it would be if it were not a puppet state, and a different border indicated the master to the puppet. For example, Vichy France would be blue bordered in dark grey. At least that's what makes most sense to me as a border is to me conceptually an overlay, like like a puppet master would be.

I'm pretty sure most, if not all, of the colour schemes in widespread use still do that.

Not too sure now. Pretty sure the common system is either the inverse to the old norm or the NCS’s system



(that’s a joke lads- no one uses the NCS other than for the worlda)

Sometimes you just feel like finishing you left as a project long ago. In fact, 5 months ago. I posted a series of maps detailing a general Timeline, with some shaky PoD's causing the American Civil War to flow reverse, causing the northern states to secede instead of the southern ones. But you'd better check that yourself, as I made three different maps depicting the progress of the TL.

Northern War of Independence

The World in 1896

The World in 1929

And finally, here's a modern map of the world in that TL. Questions would be appreciated to force me to build extra lore.

Why’d the FSA take the Maritimes?

The FSA sided with the French ATL'S WW1 and the British couldn't take them back. The 1929 map should give you some more clues on that.
