Map Editor

[Snake956]

Hello everyone!

Im planning to do some map for the game, but I dont seem to find a way to edit the current map...

Can someone help me? I think the map files are in the land folder (*\Kenshi\data\land), in the files fullmap.apak and fullmap.dds (but I can be wrong!), I tried to open them with some program (google helped me to find them ) but nothing work... (im not even surprised!)

So if someone have an idea, im open to suggestions!

I don't think the map is even moddable quite yet, considering chris hasn't actually finished making it.

I remember Chris mentioning that it was difficult for him to edit it, himself.

the map editor is activated IN-GAME. Start Kenshi, load your game and do: SHIFT + F12
At least that was the combi you had to do some time ago... maybe it's inactivated for now...

[lordbok]

hmm yea i tried that and kenshi just crashes thanks for the info

[1337]

Well that's the info there is. Write a bug report and upload the crashdump, this will be useful in solving the problem. That just means the feature is inactive as i said it could be...

[Scotterius]

Yep...you are right. Map editor crashes game out right.

Any developments on this? I would like to hear that we can actually mod the map now!
