Courier And Mini-Map Mods Updated to 1.610

Thanks MTG.

I've been using a beta version of this for several weeks now and I have to say MTGs minimaps are fantastic. They retain a 'parchmenty' period style and feel but have numerous additional place names added in helpfuly clear text; the maps for Fox's Gap and Crampton's Gap also extend the graphic area that was blank in the official maps so when your armies now deploy in the corners you have a useful map to read.

I think the Pipe Creek Maps are next to be worked on.

For MP play be aware that ALL players must have the same version activated or the game will crash.

I have released another update of this mod, 1.4025. The mini maps for Pipe Creek have been made courier friendly. Also the road networks for those three maps have had their errors repaired.

In addition, I made the mini-maps 50% larger for better use with courier orders. However, the horizontal and vertical resolution of the game, (page 1 of the Options page), must be at least 1024. Thanks to ADukes for showing the way. For those that cannot use that resolution, I have also uploaded a copy of the mod with the standard, smaller-sized maps.

Just wanted to say thanks for the great new maps that you've been working so hard on for weeks for all the battlefields; your Pipe Creek Maps in particular make those battlefields much more enjoyable to fight on and the new improved super-size graphics are a blessing to my eyesight.

Mini-Maps look good !

I like the larger Mini-Maps.
FYI: They don't work with the ELP maps.

I only enlarged the maps I created. To use any other maps, you would have to use the small map version of the mod.

I have uploaded another update to this mod. The expansion pack maps are now closer to the Gettysburg maps quality. The last mod filled in the potholes. This one paves the roads. I changed Little Powell's Secessionville mod movement fatigue and speed rates so it can now be used in sandbox play. I also added some regimental 'Advance to cover' courier orders. Regiments will advance a short distance and use any ground cover to their advantage.

There are again two versions. The small map version is for those who cannot run their display with a vertical resolution of at least 1024. The links to the mod are in the 1st post.

I have uploaded a new version of the Courier & Maps mod, (version 1.500). It has corrected the road errors on the Chancellorsville maps. It also contains a different style mini-map for the CV expansion.

Note, this mod also works with the Chancellorsville stand alone game.
