You install it and you are done. If you can't work with photoshop then indeed use something else then photoshop like GIMP or learn photoshop. The devs or this community can't teach you everything, you will need to figure certain things out on your own. Questions are good, but at a certain point people will stop helping you just because you don't seem to want to learn or figure things out yourself. And there is also google, probably better at answering questions then all of us together.
You are absolutely right, thanks :)

As you can see, all fits together nicely apart from the water which with the sun reflecting off it at diffrent parts don't look too good. So what we are going to have to do is some photoshop editing.
To avoid having to fix water on 2km/4km minimap renders make your water envmap a solid shade of grey color.

rip me, C:\Program Files (x86)\Project Reality\Project Reality BF2\makeMegaMap_1024x2.con is to long to input in the editor.

Should maybe update tut to show how to do it manually.

Yeah I've always had that issue. I just rename the scripts to something much shorter like m_1024x2.con and m_1024x4.con.

Go to "\Project Reality BF2\bf2editor\Settings\Customize.con" and write in there?
