Re: Semi Random Map Generator
I have finally beat the industries in the water problem. Next up is eliminating the need for IndustryBase.txt file. Expect a new upload this week, along with better instructions.

Preview of new map
if I can figure out how to upload, I'll include a zip of a 15 size map I have been working on (and off) for a few years now. The main thing I want to point out is the industries (and the RRT_Idustries_RonMW.xml file) were all generated by a program I am also working on. I'm on vacation next week and...

Re: Scaling outcity industries?
After much beating with a hammer and such, it appears only in city industries conform to the scale command while out city ones completely ignore it. Ah well.

Scaling outcity industries?
Hi to any people left here!
I'm trying to scale the industries on my map and the in city buildings scale fine, but not the cattle ranch, grain farm, oil well, etc. Is there a way to do this?
Thanks!

Re: Semi Random Map Generator
Its actually after you install it and go to set the Game Directory path it wont allow me to change the path there. When you are on the select path window, you double click on the folder to navigate, I don't think you can type in the window, though I'm not sure. And you want to point the folder to t...

Re: Semi Random Map Generator
thanks for the answers :) I've been sidetracked viciously by another program, Warhammer Online. Spent the last two days doing nothing else, but I have thought about how I want to pursue the options on my map randomizer. I am going to DL a few of the stand alone and cic maps and try to figure a way t...

Re: Semi Random Map Generator
downloaded it but on installation it asks for the path put it in and it throws an error cant find path Can you give me exact details on steps taken? I will try to simulate the problem for a fix. On another note, I've spent some time reading about sams and cifs or some such, and looks like the globa...

Re: Semi Random Map Generator
looks like 2 people DL'd the beta, any luck using it? I have managed to incorporate water testing and just now created my first map with the code. It said one industry is in water, now I load up to see if I did good. I definitely see the gray scale map on my form, so I am getting it imported correct...

Re: Semi Random Map Generator
The water level is 40, give or take a couple. There is a 'Z' number in there somewhere Yes this is what I need to do, but how do you read a .tga file? Especially in a program written by MS that allows extensions bmp gif jpg for the most part only. I don't really want to study the format of tga file...

Re: Semi Random Map Generator
Figured out the setup (don't ask and I won't turn red).
Tested the install on my Vista Home Premium or some crap, whatever it has and it worked.
read the Industry.txt file for short docs
the program will NOT install a start program folder so you will have to do that yourself.

Re: Semi Random Map Generator
I have not used VB5.0 for a long time, I thought it would compile a setup program with XP Home, but the setup wizard is only crashing. Maybe because I installed it to the D drive. Anyway, that's the next thing I work on. I have Visual Studio 2005 and DotNet 2003 but both of those are so much differe...

Re: Semi Random Map Generator
Snoopy has it correct, when you choose randomize, the terrain is just fine, but the cities, industries all place down on a 10 x 10 as when the game was released. I am reading the RRT_Industry file to get which ones are on the map, then have the program build an Industry.txt file that I edit manually...
