Is there someone who can help me converting a RTW map to a BI compatible and working one?

it is a very difficult, and so fat i have only just barely been able to get it kinda working, but there is a great tutorial here https://forums.totalwar.org/vb/showthread.php?t=55804

in the tutorial it deals with re-sizing and everything, but if you dont want to do that just look through it for the info related to files that will need to be altered a bit.

You basically need to convert the tga to hgt using the hgt converter.
And you edit the text files.

There might be something else, but this is the basical thing.

Hopefully it works. I haven't tried it yet, but I will cuz the map for Byzantium is WIP.

Actually I already converted it , but the problem are text files , keeps finding errors I dunno where to track , I have all the files from RTW 1.2 but in BI doenst work .....

Because they edited the files.
I'll try comparing the files, pray so I can find some differences...

Some guys ported the BI map....

You could ask AP before I find something...
He succesfully ported the Imperium map to BI.

Prom,

There's nothing different except the legion names and religion.
Must be some typos.

You basically convert map_regions.tga to hgt. Then you edit the txt files like in normal RTW. And that's all there is to it.
