RE: My Map Remakes thread
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!
Thanks!
RE: My Map Remakes thread
yes, that's exactly what you do.ORIGINAL: jglazier

No, these maps are just reskins of the originals so use the same fp9 files.What about the accompanying .fp9 file? Doesn't that need to be replaced, too?
Thanks!

I'm making headway on Red Storm 10. I'll be glad to see the back of this one, I've never had to do so many redos in one map, plus all the little things I've missed..[:@]Any way here's a preview:

RE: My Map Remakes thread
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.
