2. Install IrfanView 3.80 if needed
3. Open IrfanView 3.80
a. Open the file MapTex.jpg
b. Go to File and Save As

C:\Program Files\Total War\Medieval - Total War\Textures\campmap
d. Save the image as MapTex
e. As File Type use TGA
f. Go to Image and Resize/Resample
g. Set the width to 4096
Set the height to 3072 (it may set it for you)
Under DPI take the current value and multiply it by 4 (no greater than 300)
Under Size Method choose Lanczos filter (slowest)
h. Go to File and Save As
i. Choose this directory
C:\Program Files\Total War\Medieval - Total War\Textures\campmap
j. Save the image as MapTex2
k. As File Type use TGA
l. Close IrfanView
3. Now install the rest of the files as below

C:\Program Files\Total War\Medieval - Total War\Textures\campmap
b. MINIMAP.BIF and minilukup.bif to
C:\Program Files\Total War\Medieval - Total War\campmap

d. crusaders_unit_prod11.txt and crusader_build_prod13.txt
C:\Program Files\Total War\Medieval - Total War\
4. Start the Script Creator!
a. That's right, this mod includes a script editor that allows you to customize your gaming experience by
choosing the factions you face and in what order. In order to win, you must go through each faction one by one. You start
with only 2 provinces and all 9 other factions start out with 6. Are you tough enough? Even customize the years(turns)
per era. Create millions of unique campaigns that are sure to keep you going for a long time.
I want to say thanks to Wellington on the TOTALWAR.ORG site for his program to help automate the creation of the map.
