AFAIK the unofficial terrain expansion has been released already.

> Nor did he use the same method, I agree, but I hit a few snags using his "ini editing" method that resulted in the pieces not coming up in FA2 YR. How can I edit maps without FA2 YR, and are you still working on a map editor yourself?

You can't. No, I'm not working on a map editor.

> As far as mmx files go, they may be nice bu they can't all be compacted into the multimd.mix and still work in the game, don't you think it easier to move only one mix file around then a bunch of mmx files? Though they are smaller...

I was talking about XMMF, not MMX. You could use XCC Mod Creator/Launcher.

Add new TMPs instead of adding alternatives to existing ones. This should be possible, however, you can only add entries at the end of the INI IIRC.
