One Map Question, One Mod Question

[SilverElf4]

Heya,

I hate to be the noob asking questions to which there are already answers floating around, so I've gone through this site a good bit, but haven't found what I was looking for. So hopefully you guys can fill in the blanks for me.

On the Mod question - I'd like to try out a game where all the spells are available from the start - no research needed. As best I can tell, I would have to go in an create a mod file that dropped each and every spell to level 0 to accomplish this. Is there a better or less time consuming way to carry this out?

On the Map question - I've tried importing a few of my favorite map files to the game, but whenever I do, I get either one province pole with nothing else to connect to, or a host of province markers clustered in the bottom corner of a map. How do I move those marker poles, create new ones, and generally manipulate them?

Thanks for any help you can give. I love how active and skilled this forum is, and look forward to trying some of your creations out.
