This is somewhat embarassing, seems I didn't mention map_fog either. I really shouldn't assume things.
Same size as map_heights, simply fill it with white (RGB 256,256,256)
Edit: manual updated (again)

You mean RGB 255? Because there's no 256..
So, shall I edit the map_heights and just fill it with that color or create a new, blank gimp and fill it with white?

Finally, it's working!
Thanks for the help man..
Now, for next step, shall I visit 'adding detailed regions' in order to find out how to create them on the map?

Get my manual Creating a World - The Geomod Manual by gig if you are using Geomod. Otherwise the 'detailed regions' will give you an insight how the stuff is interconnected.
Ok, thanks for the help!

Awesome news!!! The DEMIS World Map Server has been updated with even more features! Unfortunatly the weblink has also changed!
You can find the World Map Server here: http://webmap.iwmi.org/mapper.asp
Contact me on Steam: steamcommunity.com/id/IZob/ or send a PM.
Hi friends, here is the new address of the old DEMIS World Map Server:

It seems that the online map server has gone down... I have been searching the web for another one, but without any luck.
Edit: Nevermind!!! Sorry... Saw the new link
Link doesn't work...
EDIT: The new link doesn't work. It isn't for me. Googling for the Demis online mapper fails because the homepage doesn't exist, apparently...

Seems to be temporary (identical message for the main page):
Target Server Not Found
The server(s) responsible for the requested URL "http://webmap.iwmi.org:80/mapper.asp" was not available. This could be because no servers were assigned for the URL or servers are down or unhealthy.
It seems more than temporary to me. It's still down. It hasn't been up since I first posted in this thread, and I've visited each day to check.
Looks as if this is the only alternative at the moment: http://www.demis.nl/home/pages/wms/demiswms.htm

didn't work for me yesterday, though today it does.
Only problem, the biome option seems to have been removed
I used the pdf file to create my own map and it works great
Only it says to fill the sea with rgb 0,0,25 in map_heights, though that should be 0,0,253 or your shore will look pretty messed up. Took about 1 hour to find the problem.
I have 1 more question though, my shorelines are a bit pointy at some spots. As you can see here:
I know it will probably be quite a bit of work, but I was wondering how you can make the shore "smooth" in those spots.
Definitely a typo, thanks for pointing it out - I will correct it right now.with rgb 0,0,25 in map_heights
Coastal spikes - there is a tutorial in the mapping forum on how to deal with that: How to Make a Smooth Coast
