Great! Thanks very much!

Hello,
I’ve used other map editors from games (sort of) similar to DCAO. Advanced Tactics Gold and The Operational Art of War, for example. So I’m a bit familiar with how they work. From what I’ve been able to find, creating roads and rivers looks to be similar but I’m just wondering about hills ...

Thanks for the help! Got a bit sidetracked with reality.

And hey! What other goodies are hiding out there like that TOAW Reference Card?? That thing is awesome!

<t> Hello all,<br/>
<br/>
(Note: Even though I'm asking this for map-making purposes, I didn't want to put it in the Mods section because this question pertains to actual game play as well.) <br/>
<br/>
I suppose my real question is: what are croplands supposed to represent in TOAW? I'm creating ...

Agree! Just wanted to make sure it wouldn't alter anything gameplay wise. Thx for replying!

<t> Hello!<br/>
<br/>
In the editor I noticed you can place *both* urban and dense urban terrain in the same hex. It doesn’t show a change to the characteristics of the hex (dense urban = 30% entrenchment regardless of whether regular “urban” is in the hex or not). I’m wondering if having both ...

One of the big questions I think he’s asking is how hard is it to create new units from scratch. I’m brand new and have no idea but I’m sure plenty of people here do. I’m wondering ...

Oh wow. Never would’ve thought of that being a factor. I’ll try that. Thank you!

<t> Hello All!<br/>
<br/>
I'm creating a map that's currently 400 x 400 in hexes. I tried saving it as an image but a sassy little box comes up saying the image is too large. Does anyone know what the max size the game will allow you to do this? I know maybe it's my system memory but my pc has a ...

One of the big questions I think he’s asking is how hard is it to create new units from scratch. I’m brand new and have no idea but I’m sure plenty of people here do. I’m wondering that myself.

Well, I feel a tad less guilt for whining about the rivers anyway. [:)]

Thanks for taking the time to respond! You all convinced me to upgrade to IV. Maybe Matrix can give you a % of the sale!

<t> Yes, TOAW is *amazingly* well supported by the community. What I'm not clear on is what about the gameplay itself made it do so well vs other games out there. I actually liked the Decisive Campaign games (even though I never was very good at it). I guess the reason I stuck with it more is those ...

<t> Hello,<br/>
<br/>
Both TOAW and the DC series are both great games but I see TOAW seems far more popular (at least as far as forum activity). I'm wondering why that is as I'm considering "upgrading" to TOAW IV. I suppose - given the forum support for TOAW - it'd be an easy decision BUT *my ...

Hi all,

As the title says, it'd be very helpful to have an image to help formulate my plans for world domination.

Any help would be greatly appreciated and earn you a place as one of my minions. Thx!

<t> Hello,<br/>
<br/>
I'm not familiar with the SC series and I greatly enjoy modding, especially maps. The game The Operational Art of War (TOAW) has a very easy to use map editor (but I can't get past that rivers go thru hexes rather than along the hex edges in that game) and am thinking to ...

<t> Forum seems pretty dead so I was wondering if there's a game out there that everyone's migrated to that captures a similar complexity level to DCCB. For me, Advanced Tactics is great but it's also aimed a lot more at dealing with logistics. Sometimes I want to just fight it out. TOAW - ugh, I ...

Figured it out. Does anyone know if Vic still ever looks at these forums? Is the best way to communicate by going directly to the VR designs forum? Thx!

<t> Just wondering if there exists a completely blank map that either someone has created or if there's a way to create one in the editor. As far as I can tell, the editor only allows you to edit already existing scenarios and that takes a lot of work undoing all the roads, rivers etc. I'm trying to ...

<t> OH I'm just going BATS!!! I found it. I have no idea why I didn't see it but I decided to load my Case Blue game to see if I found it there. And the first thing I see when I load the game is the editor button! So I think, "can't be...". So I re-open DCWP and...there it is in the exact same place ...

Thx for the replies! At least I'm not alone. I thought maybe there was some obvious reason I couldn't grasp.

And BeirutDude thanks for your service!
