Any Standalone Map Editor?

[Knockout]

I bought Civilizatio 2 Test Of Times and as you all probably know, it comes with no map editor... I tried to search the web for some, but only founds some that has to be used with original Civ 2, as you have to alter something in civ2.exe file... so is there any standalone map editor out there that I could use?

Thank you

You could use my MapEdit... It´s not quite a full stand-alone mapeditor, but it does allow you to convert maps to bitmaps and vice versa. That way you can use an image editor to make your maps instead.

Here it is: http://gene.wins.uva.nl/~jvermeir/civ2 (it´s in the third news item).

hey, this must be telepathy... I just came across it, downloaded it and tried it... I have to say, it's great, simple and useful... I only have that microsoft paint, so I got some problems with it... for example, when I load the bitmap of europe you gave with the program, cut my country for example, and make a 256 colors bmp file, it changes most of the colors, and I get a map full of desert... if you are online, are you maybe on ICQ or IRC or something, so I could ask you some questions?

anyway, thanks...

Hmmm, I don´t visit these forums too often... But sure, I have ICQ (124006848), but I don´t have it running very much. I believe there is a solution to this using Paint, but I´m not sure now...
A quick possible solution, although maybe not what you´re looking for. Here´s a free image editor:

I think it would be easier to use a map editor without having to do direct imaging editing. Are there any in existance? And if no, is someone willing to make such a program?

yeah, definetly easier... and as Mercator said, my problem is solved, now I have ToT WITH map editor...
all you need is 3 files, cca. 800kb and few other files you already have with ToT... email me and I'll hook you up

Thanks to Mercator for helping me out
