How to put names on a map?
#2

That can be done either by editing your ed_m01/02.tga files in a graphics editor (GIMP, Photoshop, Paint Shop Pro for instance).

And besides names, you can edit just about anything in a graphics editor - add flags or borders or make neat little drawings and insets.

Or else you will have to use the map-building version of Il-2. Start up the map-maker, load ther map and then choose 'view/objects and then scroll down to 'text'.

Click+ctrl adds a text entry, which you must then edit ...

Neither is difficult to do, but the last option in the map-maker generally gives clearer and crisper fonts.
