Modding in Age of Conquest: Nice Province Borders

This is a Photoshop tutorial on how to create nice-looking 3D borders for map provinces. The instructions are actually quite simple as long as you keep borders in a separate layer.

1. Make sure all the borders are located in a separate Photoshop layer. The border lines are preferably black and 1px wide. Please note that the Age of Conquest Map Editor can export all the border lines automatically. Otherwise, use either the Photoshop brush or line tool to draw the border lines beforehand.
2. Follow the instructions below and edit the border layer properties to enhance the look of the border lines.

Please note that the guidelines will work as well in other graphics tools such Gimp (free).
