Town map not working
« on: August 13, 2015, 03:45:12 PM »
I tried modifying the bitmap file for the town.  I've done this before no prob.  This time it didn't work.  Is there a specific size requirement I need to meet?  Either pixel x pixel or kb?

Has to be 256x256 or 512x512, 8 bit color and it must be saved in indexed file format as a bitmap.

Jinx,  I'll post something I put together from different sources so you can get the gun pit #'s sorted out.  I think if you check, your gun pit #'s for downtimes need to be altered on your map.

I think you're right.  I need to fix it.  If you're posting your maps, you emailed them to me this past spring, so I have a copy.  I'm away for a few days on business this week, but I'll fix them when I get back.  Thanks.
