Having an issue with wilmingtonwx County Placefile...
« on: May 11, 2015, 11:37:54 PM »
I'm trying to create a placefile that shows my coverage area in GRLevel3:


For some reason, when I add Jackson County, AL and Marshall County, AL, it gets all messed up. I'm not very experienced with placefiles in GRLevel3... let alone the latitude and longitude setup that is required for a file like this. Here is the file of what I have so far:

Are you looking for the counties to display exactly as they're shown in your attached image (with the colored shading and black lines)? If so, I can create a custom file for you myself as it would be a pain to do it manually since I haven't fully documented all the supported customization options. If not, what line colors/shading are you looking for? I'll also take a look and see what's wrong with Jackson and Marshall counties.

Let me know if you have any other questions - Brandon

Hey Brandon, thanks for your reply - and sorry mine is so late.

Since I use a black background for GR3, it would be great to have the border lines white. The shading colors would be red for me (Andrew), white for Ben, and pink for Andrea (the way it looks in the PAL that's shown in the Google Drive link in my primary post).

Can someone point me in the direction of the active place files, like temperatures and the like? On the main page all I can see is "customization coming soon".

This is the temperature one:

A lot of the placefiles on Wilmingtonwx are still in active development, all the other placefiles are here:
