civ2 maps

[Mike.doc]

Is it possible to change old Civ2 maps I liked into Civ3 maps?

 

[Zouave]

If only!!

No way.

And there are no scenarios in Civ 3, at least not yet.

You could always recreate them via the editor.. if you have the time patience, well that and the artistic ability anyways.

Thanks Guys..other good news?

Well, you can convert the old maps in bmp, do a little edit then convert the bmp into Civ3 maps.

There is an utility on Apolyton for that.

Waow Thanks Dark Sheer!
Could you hepl me a little more?
I've no editor on Civ3Mac. Perhaps I could send you my favorite map to convert it?

@Mike

You can mail the map to me at LeongKooi@Yahoo.com and I will see how easy I can covert it into a Civ3 map.

Got the file. But how do I open it?

Is there a way for you to convert it to a PC compatible format? If I can't open it then it is useless.

Alternatively, perhaps you can do a screen capture of the mini map in Civ2 and send the mini map to me in either gif, jpg or bmp. After that I should be able to work on it.

Well you're right.
Civ2 mac maps format is a special one.
I'm going to civ2mac forum for a while, see ya as soon as possible.
