You have some method of automating the zoom level creation process? You could use Virtual PC 2007 to install that Win98.

I have played around with the terrain files but I did the zoom levels manualy using Paint.NET. While resizing I used the Resampling method "Nearest Neighbor" to avoid the edge smoothing that the other methods apply.

The standard SHP image size is 89x89 pixels for zoom level Z4. So from that you make the other zoom levels smaller folowing the formula below:
Z4 = 89x89 pixels (100%)
Z3 = 80x80 pixels (90%)
Z2 = 58x58 pixels (65%)
Z1 = 40x40 pixels (45%)
Z0 = 22x22 pixles (25%)

This can ofcourse be a little bit tedious.
