I have a modding question that I hope someone can answer.
I am assuming that the strat map information (index locations, connections, etc.) is stored in the CC5 exe itself, so I was wonering if anyone knew the offset and length for where this info stored. I would like to hex edit (i.e cut this info from one exe and paste it to another, providing the data is contiguous etc.).
I am also assuming this can be done to change the icon that is stored inside the exe as well, provided you know the offset location and length in bytes.
Can anyone help or point me to someone who is knowledgeable in this area.
Thanks for the info, the RTB tool worked real nice. I was able to modify the diamond locations on the Scenario Editor screen, and also the map locations on the StratMap Screen.
However, I was not able to modify the starting locations for the unit icons and the country markers on the StratMap screen. There did not appear to be a table known to RTB for this. Apparently the offset for this table is known in CC4, but not CC5?
