Re: Some Map-Making Questions

Alright, so after dealing with some schoolwork I am back to trying to edit this maps. I placed all my cities, and have begun tentatively poking around in the Industries.XML. My goal is to at least place the industries I want, including a gold mine, smelter, fishery and cannery. I edited the XML file...

Re: Some Map-Making Questions

Notebook++'s Tidy option appears not to work. The only option in the Tidy dropdown window that does anything is Tidy (Most Recent HTMLTIDY.CFG) which causes a popup to come up that says something to the effect of "HTMLTIDY not found. I'll pick whatever headers I want!" (it actually says that), and t...

Re: Some Map-Making Questions

I'm using Notepad++, but have absolutely zer...

Re: Some Map-Making Questions

Jan, do I need to place my cities before I go to work on industries? Right now I have a map that's structurally correct, is painted, and has trees. Is the next step to place the cities (even though they're the European cities, which I don't want) and then begin working on the industries, or are the ...

Re: Some Map-Making Questions

Alright, I managed to restore the map to functionality by removing the .tga and the .dds from the folder, deleting everything in user maps, creating a new map named Vancouver Island, and then replacing those files with the ones I preserved. Things are back and functional - thank you to those of you ...

Re: Some Map-Making Questions

Well, nevermind... I appear to have ruined my map. :? I followed the directions at http://www.hookedgamers.com/forums/viewtopic.php?f=42&t=3378 but appear to have destroyed the map entirely in the process. I imported the various US_Northwest files from Firaxis to my Vancouver Island folder and then ...

Some Map-Making Questions

Hey all, I'm slowly working on creating a new map. I've designed the basic terrain just fine, and I've now gotten to the part when I place industries. 1) How the heck to do I get fisheries as an option? I see coal mines, lumber mills, oil wells, grain farms and cattle ranches... but there doesn't se...

Where is the User Maps Folder?

Hi all, I just purchased the game and am already interested in downloading some new maps. In the directions portion of this website, it says: Move the un-compressed files to your “UserMaps” folder in the “My Games/Sid Meier’s Railroads!” folder. Where is this folder? Found Sid Meier's Railroads unde...
