Hello, I don't know if someone had asked this before, but does anyone know how to turn the CivII map files into image files so I can print it out? I would greatly appreciate the help. Thank you,
Brian

use the original Mapeditor from Microprose or
civ2 exe. load recommended sav.
-Zoom in or out, what resolution you want.
-press Printscreen(copies screen to clipboard)
-goto your favourite gfx program
-press ctrl-V (insert from clipboard)
-remove non map parts
-arrange
repeat until the full map is copied.
-print
(colour printer recommended)
Or use Mapedit save map as bitmap
-goto your favourite gfx program
-load the bmp file created by Mapedit
-print

Thanks for the help Thoddy!! You'd be suprised on how well that did me. And Mercator, it's called graph paper here ;-). I was thinking about tracing it or free-handing but I felt it'd be easier to trace it from flat paper than from a computer screen. It's not so much for strategic purposes as it is aesthetic. I'm simply using it for a book of mine. It's probably the best map I've created so far. That is, achieving realism with land forms, continental drifs, moutain chains/formations, and climate zones etc. etc. Of course I'm going to add more details whence I make a large amount of copies for myself and trace/freehand it.

It's probably easier to draw it yourself (on "math" paper, or whatever you call sheets of paper with vertical and horizontal lines on it every 0.5 or 1 cm, or 0.XX inches surely in the US).
