Re: MAPS!
No luck, I'm afraid. What value do you input to cover the whole map? I typed in 9999 and it seemed to work? What about the 'block' vs. 'splatter' effect? I was using block. Splatter has the 1-90 option.

I tried it with 800 and 9000, both worked.
Can you post the link to the Venhola grid, and I can try and generate the map for you. |

Re: MAPS!
I broke up the URL. If you compress them, it should work.

Re: MAPS!
I don't know why that is. It's not your machine, I get the same thing.
No problem, I have to go too. Hopefully we can continue tomorrow. Thanks again for all your good help!

This should work now. I copied the map grid link instead of the page URL...

Not to sound weird, but you really really need to read the game manual everything is explained in there and then you have to really experiment.

Your welcome. I just wanted to point out that everything that you were asking is in the game guide, they put in not only a lot of work in the yearly updates of the game itself but also in the documentation of the game and all the improvements to go with it. I was not trying to be snarky or anything and sorry if I came off that way.
Way-points, map editing, and a host of other items are in the guide.
There is also a ton of helpful tips and notes you wont get anywhere else like this basic one:
Quote:
***IMPORTANT NOTE WHEN EDITING MAPS***
The map generation code is a lot more complicated than in the past. There are now Arid, savannah, winter,fall an spring set ups in the code. When building a map it is VERY important now to set the likely opponents for this map before editing. If you are designing it for Western or Eastern Europe in April then set the date to April and pick two likely opponents and stick with those while you edit the map. If you change to Japan and USMC in June for another map then try to go back you will see some different terrain when you try to edit. This is all part of the random map code. The code knows what we've told it to place on map when Japan and USMC are the opponents and that IS NOT the terrain you want when you are building a map for Germany. Just remember to set the two opponents you expect to play on that map and you'll be OK
