what are hog textures?

[GRInventor]

I have recently downloaded one of fishhawks terrain maps from the layout section of the DLS. It calls for hog textures in order to see the "tiger" lines. I assume the "tiger" lines are the rail, road, and river map lines which show on the Mini-map.
What are those hog textures and where do I find them. I would really appreciate some help.
Thanks,

The author is most probably Paul Haglund aka Fishlipsatwork
he has made a huge amount of DEM terrains.
Sadly, he left a coupple of years ago, due to spend some more time with his family.

The files you are looking for, can be found HERE.

The quickest way to get just the textures - assuming you don't want the whole HOG program - is to download 'textures.zip' from Fishy's site here. Unzip to a folder on the desktop and:

TRS06: fire up cmp, import the contents of the unzipped folder (Files/Import Content) and commit

or

TRS04: Move the contents of the unzipped folder into your World\Dispatcher\Downloads folder, Remember to delete the file "C:\Program Files\Auran\TRS2004\CACHE\world_cache_Dispatcher.chump". Edit: that should be 'dispatcher dot chump'. I've edited it six times and that pesky space won't go away!

In theory for 04 the files should go to a new folder World\Custom\Ground but only if you mean to use the HOG program to create routes. To view routes, easier to just bung 'em into 'downloads'...

HOG = Hand Of God. Yes, really.

That's right!

That's why when you see the phrase HOG, used by the long-timers here at TRS, it's always in capitals.

Nevertheless, we also find a piglet there.
