Honestly it was mostly looking at the images of Earth's January and July pressure systems that Nikolai posted on the climate tutorial, along with the guidelines in the Pasta and Azelor tutorials. Since I'm pretty familiar with my world's topography at this point, I can guess at what seems to drive high and low pressure systems, and go with that.
Yup, half-stage rotations, I think I just used the technique that's in the Pasta GPlates tutorial. The mid-ocean ridges were easy, what was a pain in the behind were the flowlines, which seem to shift away from their initial positions at random with no rhyme or reason. Annoyingly enough still necessary for guiding plate motion and figuring out ocean crust, but I'm glad not to have to repeat that again.
Thanks Turambar! Just joined, looks like a great community.
If it's a half-stage rotation, then what the two Plate IDs that control the rotation?
In addition, how do you import your mountains into Wilbur (which I'm assuming is the reason why they're so detailed)? I use Adobe Illustrator to make my mountains, so is there a method to this?
Steaming right along, I've got first drafts of the temperature maps for January and July, mostly based on the Azelor tutorial. The Pasta tutorial mostly uses input from ClimaSim (or in later iterations ExoPlaSim), which as has been discussed here and on other threads seems to get some important things wrong with regards to temperature, particularly on large continents and in polar regions. MrBragg has kindly agreed to run my maps through ExoPlaSim however (thanks again mate!), so it will be interesting to see how the outputs compare. I figure the final maps I input into the Gimp script will be some combination of the map done by hand and whatever ExoPlaSim spits out.
Attaching here the temperature maps for January and July, as well as the temperature zones à la the Azelor tutorial in case that's useful. Also attaching a greyscale image for MrBragg as apparently sending images over DM is difficult...
