Very large maps with lakes

I always use the same map, because it gives me lots of water and a nice big Island Seed: 92688 <abbr title="Colonial Charter">CC</abbr> Lake Waters Large [img]<fileStore.core_Attachment>/monthly_2016_11/583e9003d9125_Screenshotfrom2016-10-0722-52-27.thumb.jpeg.0f4701d6541ab6b976c8fe4ea2254d4c.jpeg[/img]

Here is one I'm craving to play (found by Denis de la Rive) - absolutely gorgeous! ![[Image: PB0_zpskximo1j9.jpg]](http://i27.photobucket.com/albums/c197/denis-ddr/Banished/Havre%20aux%20Basques/PB0_zpskximo1j9.jpg) ![[Image: PB1_zps4qu08jrx.jpg]](http://i27.photobucket.com/albums/c197/denis-ddr/Banished/Havre%20aux%20Basques/PB1_zps4qu08jrx.jpg) To my great dismay, shock, consternation, disquiet, distress - it is only available in <abbr title="MegaMod">MM</abbr>...

Wait, how is it only available in <abbr title="MegaMod">MM</abbr>? All the climate/terrain/starting conditions are literally exact copies of <abbr title="Colonial Charter">CC</abbr> 1.62. And just as I was typing this, I remember that I did put in the Swamp Lakes thing for Vrayna, didn't I. So there is a slight difference. It'll be in <abbr title="Colonial Charter">CC</abbr> 1.7, so there is that.

While trying out some new mods I figured I'd try some other map seeds. Of course being greedy I went for the biggest map size I could get but this is the result: - <p style="color:rgb(102,102,102);font-family:Tahoma, sans-serif;font-size:13px;font-style:normal;font-weight:normal;letter-spacing:normal;text-indent:0px;text-transform:none;white-space:normal;word-spacing:0px;background-color:rgb(251,251,251);"> Terrain Type - [<abbr style="border-bottom:1px dotted;" title="Colonial Charter">CC</abbr>] Lake Waters <p style="color:rgb(102,102,102);font-family:Tahoma, sans-serif;font-size:13px;font-style:normal;font-weight:normal;letter-spacing:normal;text-indent:0px;text-transform:none;white-space:normal;word-spacing:0px;background-color:rgb(251,251,251);"> Terrain Size - [<abbr style="border-bottom:1px dotted;" title="Colonial Charter">CC</abbr>] Very Large <p style="color:rgb(102,102,102);font-family:Tahoma, sans-serif;font-size:13px;font-style:normal;font-weight:normal;letter-spacing:normal;text-indent:0px;text-transform:none;white-space:normal;word-spacing:0px;background-color:rgb(251,251,251);"> Map Seed - 959 <p style="color:rgb(102,102,102);font-family:Tahoma, sans-serif;font-size:13px;font-style:normal;font-weight:normal;letter-spacing:normal;text-indent:0px;text-transform:none;white-space:normal;word-spacing:0px;background-color:rgb(251,251,251);"> The bottom of the Yellow Box shows the starting location of the map. <a class="ipsAttachLink ipsAttachLink_image" href="<fileStore.core_Attachment>/monthly_2016_12/584e956eb7723_MapSeed959.jpg.29f9ec0af3b7cb3cb82a769598267a9d.jpg" data-fileid="255">[img]<fileStore.core_Attachment>/monthly_2016_12/584e956eb7723_MapSeed959.jpg.29f9ec0af3b7cb3cb82a769598267a9d.jpg[/img]</a>

I wonder if it would make a similar looking map on Large size? I haven't actually tried that because I always expected that the map would be quite different and as mentioned, I like to have the biggest map I can get (I can't even remember the last time I played on any map smaller than Large!) But that gives me an idea to try some of the three seeds I mentioned at Large size instead of Very Large... so stay tuned My only issue with the Very Large - Seed 959 combination is the starting point. I played this map for a little while last night and ended up making the town east of the start point, along the banks of the main river (rebuilt the storage barn and stockpile). I had some citizens starve because I didn't get food production started right away due to the move and so the food stockpile got used up really fast but I had about 20-25 people at that point. For all the trouble at the start, I really like this map.

He has a version 2 Beta that has some starting conditions and one of them is a lake. It works with the normal map sizes but needs to be placed above mods like Colonial Charter. I haven't used it but it sounds like it will make the more realistic looking lakes that we want. Link http://ds-mods.net/downloads/ Look under the DS Small Village title. Be warned however that because this is a Beta it has a few bugs, the most important being that traders can't pass under the bridges provided in this mod.

Large map versions of the map seeds I listed above. Note that the "Medium Map" title on the image is from the mini-map mod I am using and is not the starting conditions. <p style="font-family:Tahoma, sans-serif;font-size:13px;font-style:normal;font-weight:normal;letter-spacing:normal;text-indent:0px;text-transform:none;white-space:normal;word-spacing:0px;color:rgb(102,102,102);background-color:rgb(251,251,251);"> Terrain Type - [<abbr style="border-bottom:1px dotted;" title="Colonial Charter">CC</abbr>] Lake Waters <p style="font-family:Tahoma, sans-serif;font-size:13px;font-style:normal;font-weight:normal;letter-spacing:normal;text-indent:0px;text-transform:none;white-space:normal;word-spacing:0px;color:rgb(102,102,102);background-color:rgb(251,251,251);"> Terrain Size - Large <p style="font-family:Tahoma, sans-serif;font-size:13px;font-style:normal;font-weight:normal;letter-spacing:normal;text-indent:0px;text-transform:none;white-space:normal;word-spacing:0px;color:rgb(102,102,102);background-color:rgb(251,251,251);"> Map Seed - 777, 959 and 999 <p style="font-family:Tahoma, sans-serif;font-size:13px;font-style:normal;font-weight:normal;letter-spacing:normal;text-indent:0px;text-transform:none;white-space:normal;word-spacing:0px;color:rgb(102,102,102);background-color:rgb(251,251,251);"> The bottom of the Yellow Box shows the starting location of the map. <p style="font-family:Tahoma, sans-serif;font-size:13px;font-style:normal;font-weight:normal;letter-spacing:normal;text-indent:0px;text-transform:none;white-space:normal;word-spacing:0px;color:rgb(102,102,102);background-color:rgb(251,251,251);"> Map Seed 777 - Large Map <p style="font-family:Tahoma, sans-serif;font-size:13px;font-style:normal;font-weight:normal;letter-spacing:normal;text-indent:0px;text-transform:none;white-space:normal;word-spacing:0px;color:rgb(102,102,102);background-color:rgb(251,251,251);"> [img]<fileStore.core_Attachment>/monthly_2016_12/584f660d4b0c8_MapSeed777-Large.jpg.eda34967789acb96af7bf084ff41090e.jpg[/img] <p style="font-family:Tahoma, sans-serif;font-size:13px;font-style:normal;font-weight:normal;letter-spacing:normal;text-indent:0px;text-transform:none;white-space:normal;word-spacing:0px;color:rgb(102,102,102);background-color:rgb(251,251,251);"> Map Seed 959 - Large Map <p style="font-family:Tahoma, sans-serif;font-size:13px;font-style:normal;font-weight:normal;letter-spacing:normal;text-indent:0px;text-transform:none;white-space:normal;word-spacing:0px;color:rgb(102,102,102);background-color:rgb(251,251,251);"> [img]<fileStore.core_Attachment>/monthly_2016_12/584f66472d710_MapSeed959-Large.jpg.b254a964b399a875f3adef38783670be.jpg[/img] <p style="font-family:Tahoma, sans-serif;font-size:13px;font-style:normal;font-weight:normal;letter-spacing:normal;text-indent:0px;text-transform:none;white-space:normal;word-spacing:0px;color:rgb(102,102,102);background-color:rgb(251,251,251);"> Map Seed 999 - Large Map <p style="font-family:Tahoma, sans-serif;font-size:13px;font-style:normal;font-weight:normal;letter-spacing:normal;text-indent:0px;text-transform:none;white-space:normal;word-spacing:0px;color:rgb(102,102,102);background-color:rgb(251,251,251);"> [img]<fileStore.core_Attachment>/monthly_2016_12/584f66becb0ce_MapSeed999-Large.jpg.a124182293655b95203ecb66b9ac8421.jpg[/img] <p style="font-family:Tahoma, sans-serif;font-size:13px;font-style:normal;font-weight:normal;letter-spacing:normal;text-indent:0px;text-transform:none;white-space:normal;word-spacing:0px;color:rgb(102,102,102);background-color:rgb(251,251,251);"> My personal preference is for 999 simply because it has some usable islands.
