Civilisation map format conversion
Hi. Sorry if this has been dealt with before, I'm new to the group.
I'm trying to use my Civilisation maps for something else. Right noe the only thing I can do is capture the screen to work on it with Photoshop. Anyone has a way to convert the entire map to a graphic format I can work with?

Thanks.

Download Jorrit Vermeiren's MapEdit program - it lets you convert them to bitmaps with colors corresponding to terrain/special types. Hopefully that would let you do what you want. It's a really good program for monkeying with maps. It can be found here on Apolyton downloads.

Okay, I just tried it. Maybe I didn't use it properly (but it's so simple I don't think so), but I really lose a lot of details in the conversion, only the shape of the continent is recognizable.

Anyway, thanks for the tip. This program has several features I'll want to try out.
