I would like to say I have made a basic ramp expansion and it's a bit blocky but it's the best I could do through hex editing. I am on a mac so there is no terrain editor for macs and I just hex edited it to my liking and I'm proud of it. This took 1.5 hours to make.

Not sure how to rate a hex-edited peice But I suppose that would take some work. Nicely done.

I pity da foo that cant see ma T.
Yeah, thats kinda what I thought you did to make this, tho, the way I saw it, it would be alot easier.
Are you asking where the Tileset index is stored? Check the MPQ of one of the SF or SCMD.. o, wait... Ill look into it.

Macs can't convert the cv5 files to editable ones or else I would already.

he sounds very serious about it.. and gj with that i got no idea how to hex edit but 1.5 hours is rly long compard to like 3 minutes of starforge time to do it or LESS so to make it easier you should get a terrainer to help u out on maps

*Sniff* Be thankful that you were graced with PCs guys. What would take us 90 seconds to do took him 90 minutes. Your problem: you used a Mac.
Other than that, I admire your determination for working with that hex stuff for 90 minutes and actually deciphering what some of it means.

Can be done better. Having a mac is no excuse, because you can get a PC instead.

Thats pretty neat.
I would like to see this mac terrain editor your talking about making.
I can respect this more, because he did all the work himself, I'd like to see somone on a PC do that without Starforge or SCMDraft or the like. The only difference is that you've gotten someone else to do most of the work for you.
