Hi,
i´m new to Steel Fury modding (but not to Game modding) and have some questions about creating Maps and Missions.( I have a printed version of the editor manual and watched the tutorials i found here: http://www.4shared.com/dir/11405684/...c/sharing.html )

1.In Game where you can select the Missions or Campaigns there is a history text viewable.
I found the text in the hist_text.text file in text folder.
But how can i create my own history text?

2. What is the best way to create map signs ?
What i found out is that i can create a map contour in the map editor and give it a name.
Then i opened the mission_scripts file and edit the entry below cs_map()
(In fact i just copied the entry from a stock mission and edited the contour name.)Seems to work but is it possible todo the whole work in the map editor?.

3. In game text. I know how todo Mission briefings now but havn´t found out how to add in game text. Guess i need to create a trigger before but that´s all i know.

4. Height maps. I have some problems with creating good looking height map . I tried to create one in PaintshopPro but the hills are way to steep.
Any good idea how to create one? Did i mention that i would like real height maps too? I tried the google earth plugin but it seems not to work very well on small areas.

I have more questions but that´s the importand ones for now.

Answered some questions myself.
Question 3 with the help of this topic : http://graviteam.com/forum/index.php?topic=2.0
And Question 4 with lowering the max height (max_h) entry i found in the missionname.poly file

But other questions are still valid.

Either he is busy creating his Barbarossa campaign or else he has given up tank simming and has retired to be a monk in a monastery in the Bavarian Alps Huh?

Talked with Rends about three weeks ago, between the holidays, work and the new missions he was pretty busy. Hopefully we will hear something from him real soon.
