Hey,
I decided I may want to edit the Kurile Island map for a different campaign, and set about that by using the tip on Wrench's site for adding the "missing" maps. However, when I finished editing the Cache.mm file, the maps would not open in the Toolkit. Is there another method available?

what exactly are you trying to do? the problem could be that you are changing something you aren't supposed to be...`

Well, here's the tip:
Here's how you can add the omitted Ukraine and Kurile Maps back into the FATK

Using 'Windoze Explorer', go the the FATK sub-folder, and open the subdirectory named Cache.mm in a text editor (notepad, etc). You might want to make a backup of if somewhere safe for insurance.

Copy these two lines EXACTLY:
KURILE.MM Kurile 2 34E58A00A2F98A0004
UKR.MM Ukraine 2 73FD8B00E71F8C0004

When you look at the mm file listing, you'll see how the columns of names and numbers line up. THIS IS IMPORTANT!!! Save the file -make sure you save "as ALL files". Otherwise if gets really screwed up.

You can now view and save the Kurile and Ukraine maps. And do some other interesting things...-
So I followed the instructions, but am unable to load the two maps.

No he sent me a hacked cache file that had the additional maps. He has it somewhere on his puter, but no on the downloads, I think...

This reminds me of something... How exactly do I import new maps? This has been an enigma to me... Something as mysterious as why on some frozen desserts it says not to turn over when you look at the bottom...

Sayonara,
