    Default Map project

    What i'm wanting to do is choose the map i play on for battle. I'm a big chess fan and think it's more fun playing on a plain map completely flat. Back in the days of MTW1 all I had to do was rename the steppes inland maps to the current ones I wanted to change and the ones i wanted to leave were the castles,bridges......

    so if anyone can help or suggest somthing feel free to add posts!

    yes in campaign, is there a possible script or somthing that controls what battle maps are used?..... if so maybe i can find the map files and rename them like in mtw1

    Yeah there's a custom tile thing that you can use. I wrote a quick sum up of what you have to do in this thread: http://forums.totalwar.org/vb/showthread.php?t=82591

    that thread is no help

    i guess i should explain a bit better.......what i want to do is play every battle except sieges on a flat ground map......so every single battle in the camp mode will be defaulted to somthing like grassy plains or maybe a custom map, but only that one and the others will not be used

    Yes you have to set up every tile you want to have a flat map to use your custom tile, that'd do what you want.
