There use to be a section asking people if they wanted to make their own maps...
Well, I do that, but need a few of the utilities. Like Maptool.exe.
Reb, you have any idea where it is stored?

I'm not aware of Maptool.exe. For my limited map-work I'm just using the files in the NSDTools folder included in the Waterloo SDK release. Hopefully this new website will allow Crikey and Davinci to sign in again, and then they can possibly help you out finding map tools. I also miss the map help and expertise they provide. And where's Matt?

As far as I can remember I have never heard of or used a "Maptool.exe" when making the maps for the SOWGB game.
Question - did the Waterloo Maps - have or used this tool ?

Funny side note: it includes my tc2m_packer.exe inside the Utils folder!
First C++ thing I ever coded for Norb's games, back in 2006...
Not a teenager anymore, but we're still here.
Hope this is what you were looking for.

Found maptool... it was TC2m Garnier. But the link to run requires "update". Site no longer available.
Have to redo for Norbsoft...
