Ok I downloaded Mod 11 and started it up. had some MAJOR trouble with the color table :( So I tried a fresh, and I mean fresh install. Even unloaded my photoshop CS and started over seemed ok at first...but
after 2 complies it started changing my colors to whatever it wanted to. bit the big ones are still dirt 6 = swamp / Swamp = cave floor so I ried changing things around and still nothing. I started a brand new map and eveything loaded the color table the new brushes made a new map, -5 water to start grass 0 as a base. I finaly gave up and went back to dragon 9+ clunky but reliable. any ideas?

Well I havent gone through the whole thing (Color Table) but..

Dirt 6 = Mossy looking floor
Swamp = cave floor
Moss = cave floor

Im sure it has to be the color table or how the scripts are interpurting them, but when I look at then over lapped just abit (Swamp and moss) there is NO diffrence in the color changes.

Thank you Thrain, I have used Dragon for some time now so I thought (First mistake) LoL I had it setup right. I use Indexed Colors for 9+ so that is what I was setting Mod 11 for, not RBG. Soon as I set it to RBG went great great :) thabk for the TuT man. thats what did it for me. now to conver ALOT of work over. also is there a way to make ONLY sand uneven, you know like the tops of mountains but not as uneven, so they look more like dunes?

If you add:
05 0100 0000 0000 6143 4095 001
to unevenly.txt, all desert will have a chance (about 10%) to be 1 Z higher than placed. You can adjust that to taste.
It works like this:
05 = Terrain group ID
0100 = Chance of occurance (can be from 0001-1000)
0000 = Leftmost X
0000 = Topmost Y
6143 = Rightmost X
4095 = Bottom Y
001 = Z addition

You can modify the bounding box coordinates to be only a specified area instead of the whole map.
If you change 6143 to 5119 then the greenacres/dungeon area will not be modified.

Indexed color, 8 bits/channel is what your image should be set to. I haven't tryed playing with the 24bit yet.

Thanks but Im starting to think its not Dragon at all, but Photo shop.
I have been runnign dragon now for some 2 years and Im getting fair at it if I must say so myself ;) I have changed my uneven script sevrel times (Looks nice to) under 9+. thing is I run PhotoShop CS, all the other work I have done has been under PhotoShop 7 I have tried Indexed/RBG ou name it Im not an expert by far at the use of dragon but I have set it up on more then one machine. (For my friends) and we all have no trouble under 9+ but I havent been able to get ahold my my friends to see if they have and trouble with Mod 11 under PS7. The only script I have changed is my uneven scritp. I reinstalled PS 8 / Dragon 11/20 and started a BRAND new map> I even used Thrains tutorial just incase I missed something. Under RBG my swamp/ moss and dirt are fine but other colors are messed up, under Indexed everything else seems fine but swamp/moss and dirt. Im lost I can edit anything under 9+ works like a charm :) but 11 dont like me :( Hell I would send you a copy of *coughs* PS 8 so you could test on it if you want ...LoL because Im sure that has to be the trouble but according to my PS8 Dirt 6 and cave floor are the same color, hue and all. So im lost. but thx for all the help.

Indeed. I'm using photoshop 6 myself, and all color tables were created with it.

I would suggest downloading the latest version of mod 11 (yes, it's gone through several revisions). Checking once more that you are using the correct colortable and in indexed 8 bit mode and run it again.
