Adding maps

Post by Jimbahadur »

I'm totally confused about the process of adding a prepared map to a scenario. I 've read the previous posts about this subject but have had no success and would appreciate any advice. As I understand you have to create 2 maps (with hexes and without) in the map editor.

How exactly do you tie these in with an already prepared map? (or indeed can this be done?)

This is something that I need to learn also (for the Island Campaign maps).

I'll get Alex to answer this question. He might not be able to do this immediately but he is by far the best man to provide the info you need, so it will be best to wait for him.

Hi Guys,

The process for this (and many other tips) are contained in the "Cape Matapan" scenario creation tutorial that we released in the last patch. Navigate to your carriers install directory, and you should see the cape matapan folder, inside of which you'll find a document entitled "CAW Scenario Editing Tutorial.doc" - which has a section devoted to map creation.

Also, this post on our forums contains a few tricks if you get stuck.

If you have any other specific questions then please ask.

Alex
