Map Builder and Game/Map Editor for RT3

[SSW_820]

How do I get the 'Height Maps' created with theMap builder into the editor of the game. I get some message stating that Imust be in "Windows" mode. It says to press <f9> and then come back to the screen in question. It still doesn't work and pressing <f9> doen't do anything, I have a 2.3 GHz Pentium IV Computer with Windows XP.

How do I add a town/city/ or  resoucre to a map that I am trying to modify or to a may I am creating from scratch. Cannot find the 'icon' for these functions in the game/map editor. Did this all the time in RT2 version. The instructions that come with RT3 game are very vague, at best, in htetse areas.

Really could use some help.

thanks

SSW did you get your grayscale map file working?

And did you find the city icon OK?

I would like to know how to place a Town/City as well ???.

Thx for any help...

Click the icon for building a station.

Then scroll up on the list.

What is the procedure for importing a heightmap? I presume I need a monochrome file but what format? Do I then rename it once it is in the game folder? Is there a set of instructions somewhere?

Do you have the map builder? You can get it here:

That will create heightmaps in the format that the game accepts.

 

PS. Sorry for the late reply. I say this in a thread that was inactive for 17 years.
