By an chance has there been a map editor out there for these games. Years ago when I got Gettysburg, I though it was the best game since sliced bread, almost as good as west front. There was a map editor that was out there for the public. Did Matrix pick this up when they acquired Talonsoft games. There is several Battles I wish to edit and Create. Fort Henry and Ft Donaldson, Battle of Muscle Shoals, Selma, etc.

cool thanks. My GG Grandfather fought there. He was a Capt in the 27th Alabama Inf. (Tattered Volunteers). That battle was interesting how the chain of command totally broke down.

Campaign Shiloh being the HPS game...not the Talonsoft one.

No map editor available, though it can be done manually with the right tool.

There is a tool somewhere - I no longer have it I fear - that would convert your .map file into a BMP and do the LOS. As I said, I don't have it any more.
