Need assistance w/ map converter

[Kingfish]

I need someone to convert the CMAK map of "BCM-Operation Epsom" from an operation to a scenario. I already been granted permission from the author.

You will need Pyewacket's map converter program v 1.29 and either CMBO or CMBB in addition to CMAK. Apparently you can not directly convert a CMAK Op to a CMAK scenario, you must first transfer it to one of the earlier games, then back to CMAK.

Please e-mail the conversion to the address listed in my profile.

Thanks.

Nevermind, I figured it out.

Could let us know how you did it please.

It's quite simple actually. No need to go via CMBB or CMBO.

1. check if your operation map is not bigger then what is the allowed maximum size for a scenario map in CMAK. If so, you will have to cut at the edges.(I don't recall the maximum sizes)

2. open operation map in CMAK editor (not the 3D, but 2D screen!)

3. open Pyewacket's map converter (Click "read CMAK")

4. switch back to CMAK editor, close operation map and open "new battle" in 2D screen

5. switch back to the converter screen and click "write CMAK"

6. when conversion completed, go back to CMAK editor screen. You will see the same operation map, but now in scenario size. You will need to extend the edges to get the full map visible.

7. save as scenario map in the folder of quick battle maps or scenario folder.

Achtung! Pyewackets program only converts maps and set up zones, it doesn't transfer the forces. You will have to add them yourselves, same with other parameters proper to a scenario. You can invert the map in any direction you like though.

Cheers!
