hi,
all tools that we have can be obtained here:
(The link is inoperative)
java must be installed on system for tools to work !
1 Map_c tool
- for dissecting and composing map_c.tga (for map_c.tga_table just use one from default maps)
2 Act tool
- for managing actors.static file ( that one defines all objects used on the map)
- you need to make two .bat files with command lines in order to work ( see readme)
3 unlockFMB
- for managing map files via FMB ( limitation : can't load large actors.static files)
So all tools that you need are there ... the rest of stuff can be managed via graphic editor ....
As we don't have full tutorial posted jet you need to do some reading here ( map discussion sticky and wip threads are full of info ) ....it's a lot of reading but it beats the "discovering stuff by yourself " that we had to do ....
For map_t.tga if you follow CW instructions by the letter and use his color table .... you shouldn't have any problem converting srtm to map_t.tga via microdem ...
BTW, its easier to get some help if you start new wip thread for your map project
cheers,
Z
