[Utility] BMP to WBS Converter

[Rhye]

Here is the BMP to WBS Converter.
With this simple tool written in Python, you can make maps and scenarios just with some bitmaps and storing scenario data info the scenario file.

The zip contains the tutorial Mapmaking And Scenario Design.pdf, which contains installation instructions and that will explain step-by-step how to make a simple scenario, and the sample bitmaps and scenario files produced in the tutorial.

You should submit it to the directory, and you should have had the thread prefixed [Utility].

[Ekmek]

great! do recommend anywhere to get a bmp map of the world that is color coded to allow for easy conversion?

it would also be nice with that bmp to cut and paste sections of the world we want and make maps too.

There was something like that for CtP2 in the directory. I'm not sure if it uses the right colours though.

[Bill3000]

This is odd. I downloaded Python 2.4.1 and pyPIL 1.1.5 for Python 2.4, yet when I run the program, it shuts down.

Here's the grand total of the log:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "C:\Python24\BMPtoWBSConverter186.py", line 8, in ?
    import wx
ImportError: No module named wx

Hm. What am I doing wrong?

[Gramphos]

You seem to need the wx python librtary. It is for making a userinterface.

I am having the same problem.

I really want to make a smaller earth map that will not freze up my system.

You need do install wxPython (it's not mentioned in the pdf)

[MrThing]

I did download the libary indicated in the manual.

[MrThing]

Thanks Sansi, I will give it a shot.

[Bill3000]

I downloaded wxPython, and now it just isn't running at all.

[Rhye]

I don't remember about that...
have you tried copying your assets\python\system\wx folder as a Python24 subfolder?
