Is there any special notation to setting an ocean province as a major river? Or do we need to manually do that outside the tool?

Eagerly waiting for v13

There is. The example xls should have one of those. Write the name of the ocean on the terrain column, the name of the major_river in the column left of it.
 
I just checked everything and the default.map file created by the utility causes a CTD on "calculating naval ranges". Do you have any idea what the problem might be?

NVM figured it out

--------------------

This version adds the new things that can be easily generated for the 2.2 (Charlemagne) patch. It also slightly changes how mapfiller.bat is to be used:

- TRIBAL HOLDINGS: Use "U" for those (in addition to B, C, T which we had before).


- CLIMATES: A new column has been added to the provinceDef.xls: Climate
Put normal_winter, mild_winter, severe_winter in a line to give a province winter terrain. Keep it empty to not have winter there (e.g. vanilla Sahara desert). Re-written on every run.


- TECHNOLOGY: Tech files are generated from the duchies of the provinceDef.xls, arranged by highest de jure title (empire or kingdom). Techs can be put in the config.txt (change the years!):
Code:
tech1.year=1520
tech1.military=0.5
tech1.economy=1.0
tech1.culture=1.0

# last date
tech2.year=2100
tech2.military=5.0
tech2.economy=5.0
tech2.culture=5.0
Not re-written as long as the history/technology files exist. This is rather basic, don't forget to adapt it (all regions get the same tech on startup!).


- mapfiller.bat: It now always extracts the colors of a file with the name "colors.bmp" that is located in the mapfiller folder (example file is included)



Please comment if any of the new features do not work properly (or if they do ;) )!

Having a problem when I run it. I've got the barony names in column N like you said to but I'm getting an exception thrown whenever the tool tries to read one of them:

You probably forgot the new climates: http://forum.paradoxplaza.com/forum...custom-map&p=18255042&viewfull=1#post18255042
 
Maybe this is a petty suggestion, but a way to define the at least the main color of the title in the mapfiller would be awesome. Even something like each title taking the color of its de jure capital's province would be less painfull that entering the color codes manually. I wish something like that could be added

It worked like this before: Capital, Duchy, Kingdom, Empire had the same color.
People disliked that. So I added a color offset to titles. I could, of course, make this configurable in the config.txt

Please do. It is making me crazy seeing the Byzantine purple in any corner of Thedas BUT Tevinter XD
 
It doesn't seem to accept climate for wastelands and for some reason I started getting a warning "writeLocalisation called with empty or NULL list: []" What should I do to get rid of this? Can't find what does it at all.
 
The localization error comes up if you don't have a tier of a certain type. If you have no empire you will get it -> not really a problem

Terrain .... Hm ... how would you set climates for wastelands in the mod files?

Like with normal provinces? It doesn't give them the graphic snow if you don't give them a climate. Literally just need to write it into the climate file like it already does with the rest.

I just confused that with tech. Sorry. Tech can (apparently) only be given to duchies, nothing else (including counties that are in no duchy). Climates should totally be doable, yes.
