if it is a tga it must be campmap then
it goes in to \textures\campmap

FIRST you need to convert it to LBM
use either the grafx lbm editor or try
Ultimate Paint - i have not used this one yet, http://www.ultimatepaint.com/


D:\Games\Medieval\Battle\MapImage

you will need SIX copies of the file, one for each terrain type and season in this folder

not really sure why the map makers provide tga's.
but i can only find lbm's with file names that match the original maps...

also unsure why the devs went with lbm over tga for this...

as fer as I know and I believe that was what
Barocca wrote too.
The only reasons I can think it was uploaded
in wrong fomat is: a, they don't have
software to convert but understand process.
:b, they sent wrong file type by mistake
(I do this all the time ,sent a bunch of
tgas instead of gifs lastnight for example)
or: c,they don't care and don't understand
process which would be strange considering
they made it and sent it in the first place.

funny that

hope this helps well the first bit any way.
