    How can you add maps to a ToT scenario?

    I've tried the "import map" thing but says that maps must be of the same size, which is bollocks.

    All the maps have to be of the same dimension. You can always cut and paste a map onto a bigger one using mapedit.

      How can i do that? I do have map edit, but the only options available are export and revert.

        MapEdit can save a map as a bitmap. Edit the bitmap in MSPaint then have MapEdit resave it as a map file.

          You have several options..

          (1) You can save your maps as bitmap (File > Save As... > choose bitmap file type). Then use an image editor to cut/paste maps together. Save the bitmap, open it in MapEdit and save it as a Civ2 map.

          (2) Or, if you don't need to combine any maps, you can use MapEdit to add some space to a smaller map, or cut off parts of a bigger map.

          You have to use the textboxes under "Map Dimensions" and "Map Alignment" to adjust the map. Press Ctrl+P at any time to show/update the map preview so you can see what the resulting map looks like.

          Just set the map dimensions the same for all of your maps and then fiddle around with the alignment and keep previewing until you have it right.

          If you adjust the vertical alignment, make sure you only move the map up or down by an even number.

          Oh, and be sure you have MapEdit 2.1. It's under Help > About...
