I also went through all the maps in the UI 1.2 and reduced their ed_map01.tga ed_map02.tga map_F.tga ...by changing them in Photoshop from RGB colour to Indexed colour ....this reduces them in size to 1/3rd of their original size
This map's ed_map01 goes from 116mb. to 29mb.

Maybe I misunderstood your post, but I am always curious about new things. However, I looked through some of the maps but never saw the first two files you listed (ed_map01.tga ed_map02.tga).

In the 3BG_KTO map, I did see ed_m01.tga and ed_m02.tga, but not the ones you listed. I converted these to Indexed, but then the map would not load in the FMB.

What program did you use to convert....... if you use Gimp then you must be careful not to allow it to give RLE compression when you save..

I got the names wrong because it is some while since I messed with maps.......

the ones in the KTO winter folder are the same...so use those until you get it right...
