map making - general_solomon - 05-26-2009

i am trying to edit a submap and was looking at the sqbedit and could not find the option to place buildings in a particular hex. also, how to do make my own city buildings graphics.

Well, in parts:

- You cannot add buildings to an existing map. In fact, you cannot add any new terrain, or edit the existing. All you can do with the submap is to chop bits of a larger master map.

- To create your own building graphics , is simply a matter of replacing the tiles shown on the 'Map' folder, have a look in the '2dTerrain100' and '2dTerrain50' files.

He is doing graphical changes, hence they look different from stock graphics.

Now, if he is making new maps, you have to direct your queries to him, since I do not know how to do new maps.
