Map creator help

Thank you! It’s listed as “map options” on my computer.

Yes, in old TripleA versions it was labelled “Map Options”.

@barnee I am not able to recreate the bug anymore, I suppose it’s only the first time I loaded, the result above was done by your method, with the renamed folder instead of the zip file.

I believe there is a help file associated with the program that you get when you download it; it’s either on the main screen or in the folder you saved TripleA to. That will have all the help you need.

In fact it was only one border line to change.
First I changed it in the bastile map, adding a new line some pixels to the right of the old line in pure black and then erazing the old line.
Then I reconstructed the relief-art. In paint.net I added a new layer to the base map pasting the relief art to it. Then I copy-pasted the new border line to the relief art. From the relief art I removed the old border line using the clone-stamp.

Then I ran through the Map Builder tools such as polygon grabber etc. to implement the changes to the relevant txt-files.

Just take a look at the files to see the results.

People playing this map should keep in mind until this will be probably fixed:

On the original map - heading north - SZ 29 is adjacent to SZ 32 and 31. SZ 30 is adjacent to SZ 31 and 37 (and not to SZ 32).

Okay, I managed to get it working!  :-)

I installed the A&A50 1941 scenario map, no problem. Just having my first ever game as Japan against all the AI and all I can say is - I’m LOVING it!!  :-D

This is fantastic, brilliant graphics and simple interfaces. Well done to the team who made this!  And thank you.  :wink:
