Okay, then can you tell me what size of BMPs are used? :)

Because the shield_master.psd file includes many, many layers, including a rebel flag set of layers. Are the flags simply 44 x 70 pixels, or do you need the four different darkness iterations of each flag if you see what I mean.

Cheers,

I see. You won't have to resize or cut anything. The game uses all four versions for different things. There are two layers with examples of different flag. Each of the USSR and rebel layers hold four copies of the base flag pic, the overlay add the effects. To make a new one just add a new layer with four copies of the flag, turn off(/delete) all layers except the new flag and overlay layers. Then just "save as" and go for BMP. :)
 
That is a very nice map!

Many provinces!! :eek:

Hmm.. I think I can see Midway on there! Looks like we will be having some big wars in the Pacific.. :) Before I came on to the forums this morning, I was wondering how many provinces Korea would be: Now I know! :D Europe has many provinces also!

I am even more excited now. Thanks much, Mr. Patric! :)

Great, that's pretty much what I figured :)

Already made a maple leaf. Yes, I know it's ahistorical, but it looks good :)

Are each of these provinces the same in regards to time required to cross?

Because it looks like a US player with access through Mexico could drop units off in southern texas, and only have to move them one province to get to the Pacific.

Thanks for putting up the map!

Re: Map w/ resources post?

I'm guessing it would be against the NDA to post a map showing us worldwide where all the goodies are? If not, please indulge us... :D

If the NDA would prevent this, then I'll just humbly ask that somebody could post a resource map as soon as it no longer applies.

I'm crawling the walls waiting for this thing! ;)

NDA? I'm not under any NDAs :) On the other hand I don't want to pixel the map with all resources etc :)

The flag template. You make one flag which you paste in 4 times side by side in the document. Make sure that the mask set is at the top of the layer order and then save as BMP. This is the format used in HoI for the flags.

The map: The largest map picture posted is less than 1/3 of the mape we use to generate the ingame map. It is 10000+ px in width IIRC.

Are you teasing me Patric?

well, if you prefer not to post a map with the resources drawn on it, how about a simple text list of what is where? That way, we could all meditate properly on our respective future paths to World Domination?

Any chance we could get that? :D

:we are not worthy:

...but a resource map would be beautiful, if you did feel like indulging us further :D

I finally used Explorer 5.5 to d/l even though my isp is not suppose to work with it...oh well whatever works...thanks btw good lookin maps and graphics...
 
Euro-centric...

The map looks wonderful... but, of course, it is a Euro-centric view of the world. While this is great for the European war, it's hard to utilize such a map for "planning" etc. for the Pacific War. Perhaps someone out there is motivated enough to alter the map to provide a Pacific-centric and an American-centric version, for those of us planning on taking on the USA as Japan, or trying to fight the 2-front war as USA.
