Stalingrad 2.5km scale maps recolored v1.1

Post by governato »

The original maps are great and I wanted to highlight some geographical features and make them more visible. So I recolored the large scale (2.5km/hex) maps. Differentiating some features helped my “situational awareness” and planning my moves. Now main roads and towns are red and rivers are different shades of blue, among other subtle changes. Below are the instructions on how to replace them.

4/22/2022 1.1 added some missing swamp hexes along the Don in "Change of Direction", as per master tile map.
CoD is the only map that needs to be updated but you get the whole set here.

This is the list of the maps for the 2.5km/hex scenarios and campaigns (sometimes the same map is used for more than one scenario).

  • Once the game installs each original map is in TWO folders.
    The master maps are in Program Files (x86)/Matrix/Stalingrad/maps
    Copies are in Documents/My Games/Stalingrad/maps
    Rename/move the maps IN THE LIST ABOVE in each of the two folders (I just call them OLD.mapname)
    Download the maps archive file (~100Mb) from the dropbox link. Unzip.
    Drop the new maps in the folder Documents/My Games/Stalingrad/maps
    Try with one of the large scale scenarios. The game should start with the new map and main roads should be red.
    Enjoy!

Thanks for making this. I am color-blind and this will surely help getting a better grasp on things...
