Urf! I just took a look and got the thing working, but even though it is a quite wonderful and impressive program, no thanks.

The problem for me is that I put the damned DB together, so I have a fairly good idea what's what, where to find it and what it does. Trying to learn how to use the Province Editor is going to take me more time than doing everything by hand, I got fairly adept at doing that way back with the old Faerun maps. On top of that, I also have a substantial portion of the Faerun special provinces done, all I need to do is lift them from the Dom2 map files, adjust a bit and toss them in.

Then there is the issue of prioritizing: I can either work on the map file specials or I can work on the Great Fixing so that it will be reality with the next patch. I'm more inclined to do the latter, as the map is not tied to the patch cycle.

So I will release the map and the current map file (no specials, though future special provinces are flagged nostart) and let people get used to that before I make the customized map files.
