Default Re: One Map Question, One Mod Question

MOD:
Someone could write a script to generate a mod like that. Im not sure if spells can be referred to by number the way that units and magic sites and such can. If it can then a script can just count thru them and write the commands to zero the level.

MAP:
To import maps from other games you need to be aware of two things.

Dominions uses the brightest white to mark the center of each province, and uses red to recognize borders.

So firstly, make sure that the map you are importing has no white (255,255,255) but you can just shift all white spots to a bright silver or grey. Most paint programs have an option to replace all of one color with another. Then, place ONE little white pixel in each spot that you want to be a province.

The border thing isnt too important. You can actually have a map with no border lines at all. But if you do want the map editor program in dominions to try and find the neighbors then you should ad red to whatever color you use for marking the borders.
