CivSprite 1.0 Readme

If you're curious about what exactly CivSprite is or is capable of, you may want to look through this. This short document gives a few obvious and not-so-obvious details about CivSprite and the peculiarities of the sprite file format. It also covers a few basic steps in case you run into errors. Unsurprisingly, this document also comes with CivSprite (in plain text format).

CivSwap Readme

This readme starts off with a detailed description of CivSwap usage and a short list of troubleshooting pointers. Additionally, I also go step-by-step through an example file swapping batch file. Naturally, this readme is also included in the CivSwap download.

MapEdit 2.1 Readme

If you're having trouble with MapEdit, or you simply want to know a few more details before you download it, read this. Although it says "Readme", this is basically MapEdit's help system. As a matter of fact, this very Readme is installed along with MapEdit!

More Help ...

For now, the above Readmes are the only thing on this section. This may change, depending on how other utilities come along, and how many questions I get from you. I might compile some sort of a FAQ, but for that I'd obviously need some (frequently asked) questions first.

In the mean time, you might find something of interest in the reference section of the main site. Or have a look at some other interesting websites...
