NHP's "SC4TerraFormer" originally written by Wouanagaine will work on Windows 10, IF you remember to read the documentation and get the old dll-files into the executable-folder.

Learning how to use it, once you have it, is yet another entirely different question!

Which are the old dll files?
I already have all of the following in my windows/system32 folder:
OLEAUT32.dll
USER32.dll
SHELL32.dll
ole32.dll
WINMM.dll
WSOCK32.dll
COMCTL32.dll
ADVAPI32.dll
msvcrt.dll
WS2_32.dll
GDI32.dll
KERNEL32.dll
MSVCP71.dll
comdlg32.dll
RPCRT4.dll

And I added
MSCVP71.DLL
to that folder as well.

So what am I missing that terrraformer tells me to select a folder and then abruptly quits without notice?

On a good note, SC4Mapper seems to work on my desktop Windows 10.

old dll files
  • msvcp71.dll
  • msvcr71.dll
are the particular ones that I was thinking of ...
These should be in the "SC4Terraformer" installation folder - the same folder that contains SC4Terraformer.exe file.

Using the program
The selected folder must contain valid "Region" save files:
  1. config.bmp
  2. region.ini
  • "City - <...>.sc4"
    (optional) one file per each existing city/terrain-map
    SC4Terraformer will create files for those cities/terrain-maps that do NOT exist.
where <...> is your name for that city-tile (as seen in the region view).
