centrurionjixra and astax, I am working on a utility to update maps to v1.14/beta3's new map format at present it is about 40% complete. the code to write & test is the CRITICAL code that analyses the map and inserts the changes to the map format. the complete 40% is all the support code that locates all galaxy files in the playable areas AND mods, loads the old map codes file , the new map codes file and list of all ironclad maps.
all completed code has been tested to work on winxp 32bit & 64bit,vista 32bit & 64bit AND windows7 build7000 32bit & 64bit.
