Hrmmm, yes those type of textures would be hard to make work. IanBoy's Burma map has something kind of like that (especially in the north west corner nearer Imphal) and it sort of works. Worth having a close look at that one.
Mod makers can go for whatever they want with textures but seeing as TD has to play by retail rules... yes the textures can't be based on copyrighted satellite imagery. So there has to be more artwork type efforts involved.
I haven't made any progress on Kuriles yet. I've got to go back over some of the process again now that I have a bit more of a clue on what I'm doing. Then the real fun will begin.
Not an easy thing this map building.
