Map help.

[Fredrick Barbarosa]

If another thread has already been made about this i am sorry.
But how would you move another map from one mod to antoher mod?
Like the first Rome total war mod map to the legions mod?
or would i just have to remake the whole thing.

You need to copy the parties.txt. and map.txt from the first mod's folder (in Modules) and paste them into the second mod's folder. For future reference, the map.txt is the actual topology of the map, while the parties.txt determines the position and names of the towns/spawn points.

okay thanks. 1 more thing can u make more cities than there already is.
and how do u map the map borders bigger.
Thanks in Advance.

You can drag the map borders on the town selection tool.

As for creating new towns, you need to have the module system (http://forums.taleworlds.com/index.php/topic,26745.0.html) and Python (so you can read the .py files the module system is written in) and basically duplicate existing towns. There may be more to it, but I haven't delved that far yet.

No problem. Latest secure version of Python is 2.5.1. You can get it at http://www.python.org/download/releases/2.5.1/.
