Extracting Map Seeds

[Nitfan]

Can anyone tell me how to extract a map seed from a game. I have CAII but I'm not sure if I need mapstat or something because I can't figure it out.

There is something called SeedBeast IIRC.

You have to search for yourself though...



Edit: I'm kind today.

Thanks, I've been wondering how to do that for awhile.

It can also be done with CAII. Double click on a .sav file, right-click any square on CAII's "World Map" tab, click on "properties" which is the very last item on the drop-down menu. That will give you the seed number, properties like climate and world age, and a list of the other civs in a game.

If you also need the difficulty level and setting for random seed, SGL's, etc, you can find that on CAII's "General" tab.

If you already have CAII, this will eliminate the need for a second separate program.

I expected CAII to include that feature but for once I kept my mouth shut on the off-chance that I was wrong...



Thanks gmaharriet.
