How to make a map file

Download Risk 1.0.9.3 or higher, Start the SwingGUI, and go to the Map Editor Tab.

You will need a Image that has a resolution of: 677x425 to be the image that the player can see.
You can open some other maps to get a idea of what things will look like when ur finished

Here is a step by step guide:

  1. Click on "New Map"
  2. Click "Load Image Pic" and select your image.
  3. Add all the continents and then add all the countries (do this by clicking the "Add" button on the Map editor views window)
  4. Move all the countries to where they are located on the image (use the move tool and simply drag them)
  5. Use the join tool to join 2 countries together, do this for all neighbouring countries (to select none use right click).
  6. Now move the "Image Map Fade" to the middle. and also move the "Draw Brush Size" to say 20
  7. Go though the list of countries and draw onto the image using the draw tool where that countries area is.
  8. YOUR DONE! Save the map and send it to me, if you have done something wrong it will tell you.
