Heythingy - Stupid Questions

Post by Zovs »

How do you set the hexgrid so that it lines up with TOAW's. Every time I tried it (Orientation tried: 0.0, 360 and -360 all see to do nothing).

Right now I have to rotate the map from N to W to make the hexgrid align with TOAWs...

Hey Zovs. You will find it still doesn't. This is freeware and it would be a perfect tool for TOAW if the hexes were comparable. Surely someone at Matrix has the ability to modify the hexes and dilational transformation to make it compatable. It is easy enough to change the hex settings but then that throws out the dilational transformation. Well above my pay grade. lol.

Hi Don - I haven't used it in a while, but from my notes:

[7.885 for TOAW, but lately I've been using 90]

so maybe try those two to see if either works.

You can just email it to me. You should be able to do that via the PM email thingy...

[&:] what pm email thingy?

Click on someone's name, for instance Zovs, and you get their member profile. Lower left window top line says PM and Buddy. Second line says email. That's the PM email thingy.

I love it when people use highly technical language. [8D]
