        my map looks a little different:

        newmap.PNG

        there is on the western side of Italy a SZ 67 and a SZ 66
        SZ 66 contains Sicily and Malta.

        Those islands have to be treated independently from Italy.

          @Numetalfan I do not know what could have caused this error. I'm assuming that everything else went ok. Also that you are modifying 14 Sea Zone, the one around Italy. If this is true, then you could load place.txt into an editor, like Notepad++, locate the 14 Sea Zone line and remove the whole line. Then try to load place.txt into the map editor.

          Just trying.

          Cheers...

            hi,

            that was true, after that manipulation I could start the placement picker.
            However something is wrong.

            In neither place.txt not name_place.txt nor polygons.txt a sea zone 66 appears !

            Just in the centers.txt I find:

            Sicily (1098,780)
            67 Sea Zone (1048,700)
            14 Sea Zone (1197,775)
            69 Sea Zone (1277,234)
            68 Sea Zone (1449,620)
            66 Sea Zone (1094,803)
            Malta (1126,808)

            yet - nothing else in the centers.txt
            The other sea zone are also new one created by me. so far ok with that.

            what went wrong??
            Should I copy those coordinates from centers.txt to the other files via notepad or run some map creating tools to do so?

              Hi @Numetalfan

              You created more Sea Zone's then I described. After completing the map modifications, the 'Center Picker' will need to be run. Load the old centers.txt file and remove all the centers (it looks like there are to many centers in the new sea zone, remove old and remark) that were modified, and select centers for the both new and old territories/sea zones.

              Then run the 'Polygon Grabber'. Load the old polygons.txt file. You have to select all the old and new territories/sea zones one at a time and insure that the area selected is what you want. Remember Sicily and Malta were part of Italy.

              Last would be the 'Placement Picker', although I think Malta would be to small for a placement, one square will cover the whole island.

              One step at a time. Slow and easy. You catch on soon!

              Cheers...

                How are the new territories? This is what I came up with:
                NewFinish.PNG
                The labels don't look right. Its art...:anguished_face:

                And with a couple of units:
                NewFinish1.PNG

                Keep askin'. Keep tryin'. Keep Moding!

                Cheers...

                  I feel I am close to the solution, but last step, placement picker, doesn't work:

                  range -1.PNG

                  this happens when I want to load the place.txt.

                  for a check I added all relevant files as attachments polygons.txt place.txt centers.txt

                  what might the error be?

                    In the place.txt file both '14 Sea Zone' and 'Gibraltar' have bad entries, and need to be deleted from the file before it will load. You can use any text editor to do this.

                    In polygons.txt there is no entry for '68 Sea Zone' or '69 Sea zone'. When you run the Polygon Grabber Sea Zones 5 and 16 will need to be redone to make room for these territories.

                    Always trying to help!

                    Cheers...

                      Hi,

                      I am back and started that mod making again.
                      This time my new sea zone 68 makes some trouble.
                      in the centers.txt it's fine: 68 Sea Zone (1436,613)

                      when I finally start the placement picker , however, it looks like that:
                      seaz68.PNG
                      which means the place.txt is wrong.

                      Why? In the polygons grabber everything is fine:
                      seaz68p.PNG

                      what do I miss? What has to be done?

                        The 'Placement Picker' was able to run, so you are making headway. Don't worry its all a learn process!! As to your current problem, when you ran the 'Polygon Grabber' for '68 Sea Zone' did you also reselect '16 Sea Zone' to resize it to its new size. It looks like it '16 Sea Zone' is still all of the "Black Sea" while '68 Sea Zone' is the western half.

                        Helping hands.

                        Cheers...

                          Hi,

                          I found that, you were right, bu now everything worked well with the placement picker.
                          all my files seem well, I checked all my territories in the place, centers and polygons files. however, there is a final error message:

                            Sound like the new territories are not listed in the xml. Make sure that there is a listing for each territory and that the 'Sea Zone's are marked water="true".

                            Also Sicily and Malta will need their separate territoryAttachment.

                            You should be able to test the map without have the connections fixed, but don't forget to do them.

                            Cheers...

                              what ist the problem with the width and height - where do I check the current state and how to change it to the needed values?

                                This is talking about the map.properties file. This is another file that can be created by the 'Map Creator' utility, and is located in the 'map' directory.

                                There should have been no reason to change this file, so I am unsure what may have happened to it. Even though the 'Map Creator' can create this file, you can not 'Load' it for editing, so any text editor can be used.

                                But I'm worried that if 'map.width=3773' and 'map.height=1830' have been messed up, that there might be other problems. So the easiest solution would be to take a copy of the file from 'world_war_ii_v3', and replace the one in your directory.

                                Cheers...

                                  YES, everything works now, no more errors.

                                  yet, I missed some details:

                                  italy.PNG

                                  as you can see the new sea zones 66,67 und 68 do exist, but they have no numbers graphically.
                                  sea zone 16 now belongs to the western part of Black Sea, but it has no number too. even worse the "16" is located where now the SZ 68 should be

                                  there is another problem - the whole map ist white, the territories do not have the colors of the countries, e.g. blue for Italy.

                                  How to fix those problems?

                                    @Numetalfan check the map properties. That's where the colors are. Idk about the SZ numbers

                                      color settings for the map

                                      values must be a 6 digit hex number

                                      color.Italians=394d86
                                      color.British=916400
                                      color.Americans=5a5a00
                                      color.Russians=af2828
                                      color.Germans=5a5a5a
                                      color.Japanese=e6b937
                                      color.Chinese=4a7300
                                      color.Neutral=e87112
                                      color.Impassable=d8ba7c

                                      map.hasRelief=true
                                      map.width=3773
                                      map.height=1830

                                      should we draw territory names

                                      map.showTerritoryNames=false

                                      screenshot overlay stuff

                                      screenshot.title.x=100
                                      screenshot.title.y=50
                                      screenshot.title.color=000000
                                      screenshot.title.font.size=20
                                      screenshot.stats.enabled=true
                                      screenshot.stats.x=560
                                      screenshot.stats.y=1465
                                      screenshot.stats.text.color=000000
                                      screenshot.stats.border.color=FFFFFF

                                      that's whats the map properties are about

                                        @Numetalfan that looks fine. Obviously something else causing it. Have to wait for map Wizard wc I guess 🙂

                                          Hi,

                                          what about the naming of the sea zones, where has this to be done?

                                            @Numetalfan yea idk you could check centers and make sure they're in there. I don't know much about the graphics part
