In this article, I'm going to go through various graphical parts of the BFME1 Living World Map, and explain how they work, and how you might go about editing them. There is a lot to explain, and much of it is very finnecky. The article will not deal with scripting a campaign itself, it just covers the graphical LWM components. At a future date I may write something on the code portion.

Page 1: ToC
Page 2: General Considerations
Page 3: Map Components - Land
Page 4: Map Components - Water
Page 5: Map Components - Additions
Page 6: Armies
Page 7: Regions
Page 8: Global World Properties

Note that there's a fair bit of code in this article, but it's all simple stuff. You can click on any of the images to open up a larger version.

Whosoever dared to rate this at '4' now has to explain what is missing for it to be rated '5'.
