[Tool] AOH2 Province Exporter for Map Editor

[Hons 26]

AOH2 Province Exporter

I made this program because i had to make it lol and i made it in JavaScript.

This program exports provinces you have made with the Map Editor, so instead of using the Map Editor to export provinces and having to rename the provinces (which isn't the case for Map Editor 2.0) or deleting and remaking the province files with the Map Editor, which is very time consuming. You could use this to export the provinces that are displayed in the Map Editor

The way it works is by using the Map Editor data / mapAoC2_v2.txt file and exporting it to generate provinces.

The Instructions of how to use it is in the program.

I might make a website version for the Province Exporter / Updater so it's more accessible to everyone.

after using the map editor, you could export the provinces with this tool. it uses mapAoC2_v2.txt file to export the provinces, so simply put the mapAoC2_v2.txt file in the editor_data folder, and then just run the program and it will generate the province files in updatedprov folder

obviously you have to extract the zip file first to some folder

Can you make a program that makes provinces (It's just like map editor, but let it has more features.)?

Hello, I have a question, it may be a bit silly but I have never edited the map, so once the files are in updatedProv, where should I place them?

Thank you. I fucked up my file structure on accident and your tool really saved me from hours of trouble. You are my saviour.

I made a similar tool recently. At present, it is in Chinese language, and I can translate it into English if necessary.
