Perhaps you could add a section about extracting maps from the commandline for those Victoria and CK people who can't use your extracted maps?
I've already made a section telling how to extract map files... It's just to launch the MapExtractor 
(After doing preparations described in earlier section )
The reason I uploaded these was that MapExtractor on my computer sometimes jump over a picture or two if Im doing other stuff (works perfecly though if I don't) and that it on slower computers might do it even when doing nothing else.

What about choosing what to extract, in case something was skipped over? Invoke MapExtractor with -help and see the special command (IIRC it is -extract(xoffset,yoffset,width,height,numx,numy)
I am afraid I didn't knew this was possible o
Im afraid you must explain it to me first, he he

To open:
Special for Vista: Open the folder of MapExtractor, hold down shift, right click, select Open Command Window...
Anyone: WindowsKey+R or Start->Run, type cmd, enter. Then you have to navigate to the folder. The window will say something like C:/Windows/System32> If the drive is incorrect, type cd /d DRIVELETTER: to switch driver. To go into a folder, type cd foldername To go up, type cd..
After getting to the correct folder: type mapextractor -help
Then after reading the help type mapextractor -the commands you want

I got to the border part (wewt) but without the pictures and the vague description i was unable to figure it out. Like how do i select the white and red so it deletes everything else?
Brilliant guide, I went through all the steps without a single error. However when I started up HOI2 I got the milestone error. I know you say this is because you have too few or too many connections, however, I used the exact ones you wrote in your guide. Recognizing the you actually delete 8 and add 6, I deleted the first to lines (thus adding 6 and removing 6 connections) and went through step 3-6 again but this time I also got the mile stone error. Do you have any ideas what went wrong here? Help is greatly appreciated as I plan to redo the entire map.

And does the first two deletes that you added count?. I mean, should i erase two more connections in this adj-mod.txt? (considering that i've merged provs 2331 and 2332 into 2330) and merged all the Aleutians (545,546 and 547) into one prov.
Code:
#This file modifies the creation of adjacent.tbl by MapMaker
#It overrides the default calculations of province adjancies
#To be used, this file must be placed in the same directory as MapMaker
#This default file may be needed for HoI, use it if not using it causes a milestone error
#The format is from;to;action
#From is the first province, to is the second, and the action is either Add or Delete

Another thing, should i include here the previous connections modifications? (IE, the ones made to connect prov 1623)
Yes, the first two count. But if you change borders around, the number you need might be more or less than two. What matters is getting the number of adjacent connections to match the number in settings.txt. If you don't know how many connections you have, do step 3 and read the report to know how many adds and/or deletes you need.
I'm am doing part 7 right now....but i don't understand the part with the "adj-defs.csv".
Do i need to delete and/or add the connections i write in "adj-mod.txt" in the "adj-defs.csv"???

Great !!
It works, just need couple of tweak and editing to make the province perfect. I add Bandung.

Sometimes your connections already exist or doesn't need to be deleted. Run through step three with MapMaker, and it will tell you how many connections you got. If it says you have to many, add some deletes, if you got too few, add some. It doesn't always make senceCorvuz_Crovax said:
@ Mexbuild - You have saved the the colorscale as png-file, yes? And with the indexed colours used by the game?
@ Indoeasia - That is great! Pleased to see more people get it working
