Is this still around?? (though I think it had some issues...)
I used it a little bit, not extensively at all. I don't recall hearing about any issues with it. As far as the map graphics files go, I think people just use whatever graphics editor they find suitable. Never edited one of those myself.

To Use witploadAE
Open a DOS prompt by: clicking 'start', then run. On the 'run' prompt, I type cmd then click ok.
At the dos prompt, I type: CD C:\Games\WITP AE\SCEN (that's where I have it saved on my computer.)
C:\Matrix Games\War in the Pacific Admiral's Edition DBBB\SCEN
Now, I type: WITPLOADAE.exe /e /s198 (Long ago, I opened Scenario 1 in the editor and saved it as scenario 198.)
That gives me CSV files that I can open in Excel and modify to my hearts extent.
To import, I go back to the DOS prompt and type: WITPLOADAE.exe /i /s198
this produces files that are saved in a different location and need to be copied back to the SCEN folder.
My location is C:\Matrix Games\War in the pacific admiral's edition\scen
I go there, highlight all the files, right click and choose copy, then go to my SCEN folder above and paste.
That's about all the help I can give. the spaces above are important, and it's case sensitive, I think
