How to create additional brushes for map editor?

You can place your own alpha images to be used as brushes and place them in this mod's brush folder. You'll need to create the alpha using an image editing program, or you could use premade brushes. If you don't know anything about this, I'm sure you can find a tutorial or two out there.

I believe you can simply use Photoshop to create png's with transparent background/black and upload into brush folder while you are in the map editor. I'm working on some now.

What do you mean you believe? I told you this 2 years ago -_-
Photoshop is an image editor isn't it? o.O
'png's with transparent background/black' is an alpha image isn't it? o.O

Grapplehoeker can be extremely helpful, he's practically an expert at this game. But at the same time he's got the symptoms of too much time in front of the computer. Arrogance and a huge ego 😂

I was just trying to be more specific for those who don’t know the terms. I wasn’t trying to be ♥♥♥♥♥♥. Sorry if it came off that way.

You do know I wasn't talking about you, right? :)

I have this mod and I've looked in it;s folder, there is NO brushes folder there!

Go into C:\Users\YourAccountName\AppData\Local\Colossal Order\Cities_Skylines\Addons\MapEditor\Brushes

if not create one black and white png file. Size is 72x63 pixels. Background should be transparent. Save the png in the above mentioned folder. Fire up your game.

You could use gimp (freeware) or paint.net which is also suitable for this project.

GL!
