    Default Map Radar FIle

    Hi there
    Ive made a mod and am trying to use a different strategic map, the game loads then as it shows the map if crashes. I think it is due to the map radar image. Can anyone tell me what this file is called so I can check it out.

    Thanks
    as always

    The "Radar" images are:

    MINILUKUP.bif
    MINIMAP.bif

    The images at the start-up faction selection screen are:

    FE_MINIMAP.bif
    FE_MINIMAP_LUKUP.bif

    THanks for that, so I am I correct in the following ,IM trying to make a expansion called Nap.

    So I if want to use the orginal MTW stategy maps so should I copy the following files

    minilukup
    MINIMAP
    MINIPAN

    and rename them as

    Nap_minilukup
    Nap_MINIMAP
    Nap_MINIPAN

    Ive made new campagains before but never used the SetMapTexturesSubdir command before (ive used the vikings sub folders for UK based campagains)

    But this time I want to use battle maps from the Lordz napoleonic mod so I think I need to make this a proper expansion so have to set the stategic map up

    Thanks for the help

    I'm not sure to be honest, I've never got a map to work. I'll have a look into it if you like.

    hi there
    Im using the original map from Medieval, but as Im making an extension I believe I need to make another copy and name if for the expansion. It is the naming convention and which maps to copy that is tripping me up. I looked to see what viking files there are, guessing I could use this as a guide for my own expansion. And Ive made campaigns before so Im comfy with everything except having to to set the map. Everything loads, then I get a brief glimpse of the map, but then if crashes out, no error messages, just closes down. Very strange,
    Any advice would be greatly appreciated

    That's the same crash I get with Brittania Divided, but I haven't touched any map files in the current attempt.
