I'll do a remake of the civ 2 large world map, but with resources in the good places. that map was decent....

can anyone tell me what the size of the civ 2 world map is? n x n

120x75. That's 9000 squares total, compared to 32,400 for the "huge" map that comes with Civ 3.

Or send it to a civ website like....... oh whats the name of that one I visit the forums of? Apoly-something

I agree the world map isn't great but **** that's no reason not to buy the game. Most of the problems mentioned can be fixed with the editor. I just hope any patches will support any work done with the editor ( or I may only make very few changes. Don't wanna keep on doing them )

This is just a problem of limited playtesting - buck up people.

IIRC you can access the 256X map by setting the dimensions for a 'huge' map to that in the editor.

if the civ 2 huge map was 120x75 then we could do a 240x150 map which would be the same proportions just 4 squares in place of 1... this could be made very detailed... anyone else think this idea has promise? it would give us a good starting point... personally i liked the civ 2 huge world map except some of the inaccuracies...

tleilaxu is from the dune series by frank herbert, which the rt wargames were very loosly based from.....

Yeah I know......Tleilaxu are on of the indiginous tribes in Emperor: Battle For Dune

I wouldn't mind seeing more screenshots of the editor.

Here's a few of the editor.

Enjoy, I haven't played to much with the editor yet. It looks like there are already some guys hacking away at it. Check out the creation forums.
