Making Greenworld Maps

How to make maps for the Greenworld Tileset.

I have created a Greenworld pallet map file which contains all the sections of the Greenworld tileset. All the hills etc.

  • Open mapper 2.0.13. Goto view > Options. Set OP2 VOL directory to the OP2 directory with the Greenworld Tileset installed in.
  • Goto manual overwite and tick 'Locate tileset' and enter maps04.vol.
  • Close mapper, reload mapper.
  • Extract the maps from the maps04.vol with the VOLExtractor (http://www.outpost-universe.net/files/coding/VOLExtractor.exe).
  • Make a copy of one of the maps with the size you would like to work on for your new map.
  • Load your copy, this will become your new map.
  • Load grnwld_palette0.7.map
  • Copy and paste sections into your new map.
  • It is suggested you first cover your map in blank grass. There is a big section of grass in the pallet which will help you to do this. Keep pasting it over your map untill it is full.


Note: You cant open non-greenworld maps while the mapper is loading the tileset from maps04.vol.
