Extended Maps - 3/19/2017 7:19:01 PM

Status: offline 		Currently enjoying my first 4 months of a Stock Campaign game. As I think ahead to my next game (I do intend to play my current one out) I would like to get an Extended Map working. I am at my wits end trying to install one on my test WITPAE game. I have been to DaBabes and followed the instructions there, but to no avail. (One of the issues here is that I cannot find the WPEN.bmp files that are required to unzip and put in the Art file. I find the WPEH files, and the data files...but not these) I have been to Big B's Shipyard, where incidentally I seem to be able to get the WPEN.bmp files. However, in all installs I try, Aden docked, anchored ships and aircraft and land units show up in a box a number of hexes out of Aden. I have seen some people describe similar issues...but have not been able to find a reference to what I might be doing wrong.

Grateful for any help this forum might have.

Status: offline 		Thank you Bill. It seems so obvious once you have pointed it out...and I should have figured that out. All works fine now.

Many thanks!

But where do I start?

Or is this scenario not any good?
