Q: How to add my own levels?

I tried making a my own worms remake some time ago, but gave up when i found this game, so ive got loads of 2D levels from Sonic, Mario, and others i made, I dought you could use them due to copyright issues, but is there a way i can install them so i can play them offline?

The average map size is no more than 3000x2000 with 2 Bitmaps, The Foreground/Land and the Background.

;)Thanks for any help

No help yet?

Ho well, so far in "Hedgewars 0.9.9\share\hedgewars\Data\Maps" ive created a folder call "Super Mario World 2", in which i placed Map.png which i have reduced to the correct resolution, Then in Map.cfg ive added the line "Super Mario World 2" and a Preview Image, I then made the folder Hedgewars 0.9.9\share\hedgewars\Data\Themes\Super Mario World - 2, and copied a theme from a different map to get it working, but im getting the error "Last two enine messages: Reading objects ifo...bad data or cannot access file theme.cfg".

I would of assumed the theme would be fine as its the same as one from a default map, any idea how to get read of this error so the level will load?

It's reallly simple. You need a png image with zero alpha channels zones for hedges to walk. All u have 2 do, is copy any map folder and replace the map.png.
Btw i've made a mario map just for fun...
I don't hope it'll be of any halp. Forgive teh drunken russian engrish.

In this case you must make sure everything is set up correctly. Hellish Hand Grenade

You need these files:

map.cfg
map.png [2048x1024]
preview.png [256x128]

Pay attention, the names must be lower case!

Open the map.cfg file and enter a name of a Theme you want to use. Themes are stored in a Data/Themes/ directory. If you don't know, type: nature
