Cartography & Custom Maps / Blindpud Random Map Generator (DOS/9X)
« on: July 22, 2026, 12:56:00 PM »
Random generation of puds for 2, 4 or 8 players.
Runs under DOSBOX or Windows 95/98/Me.
Wayback archived only the source files so I compiled from source.

Mods & Development / New mapping tool: PudSizer
« on: May 29, 2026, 03:39:42 AM »
PudSizer does two things, it allows you to set the map size and also the map terrain to any tile type (except boundary tiles and broken walls which crash the game).
You can run it by the commandline or double click and follow the prompts, it will dump the PUD into the folder you run it from.
You must then "open and resave" your map in the standard map editor before it will work with other third party editors.
Thanks to Available for sharing info on map editor internals that made this method possible.

Mods & Development / Re: Palette2PAL Palette Converter (PPL > PAL)

Updated the script, old version works but may not play nice with future versions of powershell.

Mods & Development / Palette2PAL Palette Converter (PPL > PAL)
« on: February 27, 2026, 03:58:53 PM »
Palette2PAL converts WAR2 PPL files to PAL format compatible with most GRP tools (SFGrpConv, RetroGRP etc),
The script self copies to %PATH% so once run once, you can run it locally from any directory.
I guess it might work for War1 palettes as well, I haven't tested.

It's the second script by the way, "Random Game Port.cmd", the third might help, too.

Support Requests / Re: can someone give me the warlat code for combat
« on: April 03, 2025, 11:16:49 PM »
There is a hard coded delay to prevent lag, something like this.
Extra high latency (73 frame delay)
High latency (53 frame delay)
Low latency (38 frame delay)
Warlat (26 frames delay)
LAN (12 frame delay)
Ideally the latency should be variable, based on the slowest link, for there to be no lag the delay must be equal or greater than the slowest connection but in reality most players won't tolerate variable unit response time so we put up with some minor lag or find players we don't conflict with.
You can find the warlat code here, not sure it has any relevance since they built remastered up from the War2 beta (according to {Lance}).

Support Requests / Re: Why does insight keep crashing?
« on: March 31, 2025, 10:05:00 PM »
It's probably the Windows 11 scheduler + CPU combo (28 threads, 20 cores) if you can turn off hyperthreading or "e-cores "in BIOS I would try that.
I had a similar problem with insight, War2 freezes on loading replays if I disable CCX switching in Project Mercury (AMD).

Well, insight may crash on multicore systems if the processor affinity is not isolated to the same CPU core as the game.
So drop this script in the war2 folder (insight must be in the same folder) and it will do that for you.
If you are not the admin you may have to run the script as admin (right click run as admin).

What is your operating system, and what CPU are you using?

The rally plugin won't work online unless all players have it installed, it will drop/desync the moment its used.
If you are still interested, try updating lambchops(lc.dll, attacthed), goes in War2 folder.
