OT question - is the mod DV compatible?
Yes there is a map-editor
You can find the map editor here
Oh BTW the_hdk, please edit your signature. The maximum number of lines within a signature is 10 (including blanks) I count 15 lines in yours.

Someone edited the map of Wales and Ireland for Veld's Before the Conquest mod, but I don't think there is an editor program, no.Hi is there a map editor for CK DV?

Egypt needs to be fixed up pretty badly: everything's in the wrong place.
edit: I stand corrected.

you have to edit one thing and you can play in DV...
look in the mod thread.
But I'll try to add more stuff like CoA a new map and more chars
Crovax did already so much that I don't have to start from 0.
Tnx for the link....
15? I count 10
how is that possible? and I don't have any blanks as I used the "---" for that edit: I made it smaller... I deleted a few things I count 9 lines now.
What resolution are you using ? That could count for the differences in lines, I am working on a different PC now, so I could be seeing to many lines
So are there any good map modders for ck out there.....
willing to help out with the mod?
that tool seems freaking hard and confusing to use... <cry>

The only one who has been able to get it to work has been Kurek who has been working on a British Isles Map Mod
Jordarkelf has also been working on a mapmod, but doing it isn't 'easy'.
If you just want to edit the existing map a bit, it's "easy", as long as you have some graphic skills and a good tool. You will need to merge some provinces to free up IDs for other ones: seazones at the edge of the map and lakes are obvious choices. Then use the colour of the province you freed up in the new province.
Making a new map from scratch is much harder, as you will need to draw everything from the borders to the province colours (take these from the original map with the colour picker), but gives more freedom in the end as you're not bound to Paradoxian provinces. Of course without some graphic skills the map will look bland though.

Wait a minute... YOU CAN GET RID OF THOSE #$@!#! LAKES???
DO IT!!! DO IT NOW! (please)
Starting with a map made by I Killed Kenny (you can look at this thread), I edited the .bmp files to make it playable, it has 122 provinces but I never found the time to finish the scenario .
Jordarkelf is right that without some graphic skills the map looks bland, that can be a fitting description for my map. Though I can say doing borders is not that difficult (In my map they are bad because I did them at the beginning while I think it should be done last), however finding the pixels which are not of the right colours i the ProvId file can be troublesome.

hi that would be awesome
do you still have the map? could you send it to me (to the mail I posted above) (seen in crovax post) ? my only modding skills are scenario and char editing
also I plan to add all CoAs
You can look at this post to find the download links (the files are too heavy for mail). The provinces defined by I Killed Kenny are different from those you have. To give you an idea of what it looks like I will show two screenshots:the_hdk said:hi that would be awesome
kadvael56 I applied your map on a clean copy of ck dv and well I got a frecked up map
all the castles and ports are wrong and it's just weird totally not like in your pic...
what did I do wrong...?
here is the pic of my game...

I do not remember if I put the right province.csv file in the rar folder. In the map editor package, there is a program called object editor that allows to place ports, CoAs, and armies, with it you can edit the province.csv file which is in the db folder.the_hdk said:
With the right file you will have nearly what I showed, you would also need to edit the province_names.csv file in the config folder.
EDIT: I sent you the files I have edited.
