How can I convert maps from SPWW2 v.6 to SPWAW?

Fred Chlanda made some conversion tools for earlier versions of SP2WW2. Don´t think they still work on the latest versions though. Seems you need to "convert" manually (in fact redoing the map) and use the "Mountanizer" tool to make height levels above 30, if any.

Harry is correct: the SHP files for the two games have 'evolved' over time, and the location of many of the map icons have changed. Also, SPWW2 and SPWAW use different methods when displaying multihex buildings, so that any map containing them will show them 'off' of their 'foundations'.

There's a program included with SPWAW called 'Map Thing'....I'm not sure if it works with SPWW2, but if it does you can create a PDF file of your map, and use it as a guide to create a duplicate in SPWAW.
