#1: How to rotate a map? Author: CloseCombatRob PostPosted: Thu Oct 29, 2015 1:54 pm

Hello, I wanted to rotate some of the maps in CC2 so that the north of the map will be at the top, but I am wondering if this is possible without having to re do a lot of things such as terrain etc, and how would I go about doing it.

An example here from an early beta screenshot of CC2:


Any help would be great, thanks.

Hi,

maybe you already know about Mafi and his guides and tools regarding almost every cc2 detail, including map making and map rotating (i.e the shadows of the buildings and so on); if not, please check here for "how to" guides and tools:

Hmm I can't find anything about rotating in any of the PDF's so far, I found CC2tools lets me rotate maps but it only lets me rotate the map 90 degrees in one direction and not 180 or 90 to the other way

Although you can rotate the maps (and I don't remember how to do it), you can't change the position of the deployment tiles. The allies will still came from the right and the axis from the left, so that will screw historical accuracy. I tried it once and you can change almost all the deployment tiles except for one, so the AI would still deploy in that one tile and you would get enemy units in your rear.

That is true yes, although I want it for a few maps for a couple of custom battle ideas
