Swordsmandk Posted December 15, 2020 Share Posted December 15, 2020 Is it possible to make bigger map selections like in the old pro version. That means selection bigger than 22x22km? Swords 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Ssnake Posted December 15, 2020 Members Share Posted December 15, 2020 Not with the Personal Edition, and that's not going to change. Appetite for bigger maps is never going to be satisfied for any user group, no matter how big we'd make it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However if you can tell me the area you need (I'll need the map name / file and 4 x Grids) I can make the baseline scenario in Pro and then you can open it in Pro PE and add units, etc. Edited December 15, 2020 by Gibsonm Added the requirement for the map name / file. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gibsonm Posted December 16, 2020 Share Posted December 16, 2020 Sorry went to the link and its "sweden1 [autocreated base]" Is that what you mean when you typed "Scanie Map"? I'm trying to match "like for like" and ensure I download / convert what you actually want. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Swordsmandk Posted December 16, 2020 Author Share Posted December 16, 2020 When I picked the ScaniaSE in the map editor and saved the delta map it came out as sweden1 Its perfectly fine by me if its the ScaniaSE map 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gibsonm Posted December 16, 2020 Share Posted December 16, 2020 (edited) Um ok. This seems to have its own deltas so I guess I'll now have a 4th Scania / Sweden map folder. Did I mention that I really don't like this new system in terms of bloating the number of quasi duplicate files on my hard drive and creating confusion as to which map is actually which?

But AFAIK only someone with the pro version of SB can edit the scenario on that map! I'll have to check but pretty sure that's not right. But in any case there is another issue that may delay things. Now that the update from 4.167 to 4.2x is delayed I have to wait anyway due to the "version number issue" (i.e. scenarios being edited in 4.167 need to be created in a version number 4.167 or earlier). My Pro versions go from 3.535 (can't work with new map formats) to 4.2x (nothing in the 4.0 to 4.166 range) so I need to use one of the 4.2x versions to access the map, but then he'll need 4.2x in order to build the scenario. Basically I can convert it now, but it will need to sit on a shelf until SB Pro PE 4.2x actually comes out. Also I'm assuming that this "new" map has already had "bumpiness" and everything else adjusted???

Gibsonm Posted December 16, 2020 Share Posted December 16, 2020 Ok, but you are happy with the bumpiness? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Swordsmandk Posted December 16, 2020 Author Share Posted December 16, 2020 Not sure - The only map I have been using with the current version is the original one. So havent seen any map with bumpiness. Will it change from what the map is now. From the version I have when you do a scenario? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gibsonm Posted December 16, 2020 Share Posted December 16, 2020 No. Its just that after the scenario is created it will be too late. If you open it and its too bumpy / not bumpy enough or something else is wrong then we start all over again. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is a pretty small map - 8 Km North South, 28 Km East West. Also is it meant to have no vegetation (doesn't really align with my recollections of that map)? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Swordsmandk Posted December 16, 2020 Author Share Posted December 16, 2020 Nope my ScaniaSE is with forrest, building and so on. Wierd. Well dont do to much then. This apparently takes more effort than it appers. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
