Stupid question - how do we use these maps? Do we simply replace the original .png file with your file, in the modules\FPRS\Maps folder? What about the accompanying .fp9 file? Doesn't that need to be replaced, too?

Thanks!

yes, that's exactly what you do.

What about the accompanying .fp9 file? Doesn't that need to be replaced, too?

No, these maps are just reskins of the originals so use the same fp9 files.

Plodder scores two for two. [&o] Thanks for the answers.

Plodder, another sweet looking map! [&o]

Plodder, I too saying dam nice looking maps. I'm unable to play any scenarios. I'm here at Ft Bragg doing a WFX with the 82AB. Too dam tired when getting off work, just able to drink some beer and hitting the sack before starting all over again the next day.

Simply awesome! [X(]

Thanks

Here's a preview of the latest map I've been working on.This is Red Storm 14, the map for 3rd British scenario Strike First. It's almost finished, I'll have a another look over it tomorrow with fresh eyes and upload it when it's done.

I've made a slightly different approach to this one. I've tried to sculpt the forests to more closely resemble their real world counterparts while keeping them in line with the fp9 data, and I've copied the fields over from google earth at their correct scale.Previously I was zooming in at twice the scale.

And here's a zoomed in snippet:

I've made a couple of tweaks to it and added the Dutch-German border as well.
