The Great Lakes don't show up on my "Battle Of Rock-n-Roll Terrain.
The Detail on my Pearl Harbor Terrain is not small enough (No ford island)
CBI still stands a chance what do I do if the area I want is on two of the ????30 tiles?

Scale it down, I guess you have a BIT too much water on the map? (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/wink.gif) Mapmaker only does 512x512 maps, but don't get confused about it. You don't have to make a 1:1 map, right? You can take a smaller area ("less degrees") in the mapmaker, in which case the scale will less than 1:1. But in a map like PH, that might be only good? Say 3:4 or 2:3? That would probably increase the playability some...
One way is take a good map with just the area you want. Then make a bmp out of it and import it to the game with AKWabbit's BMP2MAP -tool. You can do fine editing at the bmp level, which the map maker doesnt allow.
I hope this helps!
