      We have recently collected some Theater Tool’s that work for BMS Theater Development.

      We’ll start here:

      http://www.safe.com/fme/fme-technology/fme-desktop/trial-download/

      This tool allow’s you to take the available .shp file for a country and convert it to .e00,which is the format that “CODECS” Dem2Terrain tool understand’s.

      I am also going to ask the Forum Moderator’s, to please make this a Sticky, so that we are not hunting all over the place for the tool’s.(Thank’s M8’s)

      There are some further tool’s coming,that have made my Falcon life, a whole lot easier,when it come’s to Developing a MAP\Theater for Falcon.

      First,Monster’s TerrainTool…too much to list…
      https://www.benchmarksims.org/forum/showthread.php?5904-Monter-Terrain-tool
      This tool was written by Dr.Fred “Bald Eagle” Balding, for me, all credit’s are due to him.Please!!:

      This tool will Level your AB’s,as well as put the correct LOS for the radar’s……

      Link to Revienter’s UI TUT:
      https://www.benchmarksims.org/forum/showthread.php?6435-FAST-UI-CONVERTER-TUTORIAL B4 it get’s lost.

      New tool for UI…Khronik has built this tool for us,standing on some shoulder’s,good work M8:https://www.benchmarksims.org/forum/showthread.php?7378-UI-Resource-Tool

      For those TileMeister’s:
      http://tilemage.50webs.com/ This one doe’s a better “Split”,at least for my old eye’s,then PS.Quick too!!!
      For the “InsaneIdiot’s”:
      http://www.maptiler.org/ This tool will take a TetraPixal map image(Or any huge image for that matter) and slice n’ dice it…pretty 'kewl.

      The Tool’s that are giv’in here,are with the EXPRESS Permission of the owner of the source code.
      TIA,
      demer

      NOAA is up!!! 😉

                Does this do anything besides convert the .sht(oops😁) .shp to .E00??

                EDIT: I mean for our Falcon purposes.

                        I’ve updated/change the link since your post… Can you update it to point to the thread instead of the actual file?

                        Thanks!

                                  Link to Phoenix’s 4Byte L2 version of CATE .exe file (only): https://rapidshare.com/files/486943106/Cate4Byte.rar

                                  Instructions:
                                  1. Install 2byte version of CATE as usual.
                                  2. Download 4 byte version of exe file from link above.
                                  3. Back up 2byte version of .exe then overwrite 2byte versions with 4byte version.
                                  4. Run CATE as usual per user manual but it will now be able to modify/build on the 4byte L2 file.

                                    I have found some pdf with hand painting tutorial for the terrain. I thought it may find some use if I share.
