Esoteric Mapping Tools

Posted By: Forrest of B.org Date: 10/9/04 10:33 a.m.

I've got a rather odd situation in search of an odd tool to help. I'm hoping someone here knows if such a thing exists, or if not, that someone might have sufficient technical knowledge of Marathon's innards to tell me how to do it by hand.
I've got a big, complex map that's a huge pain and a half to texture because Forge chokes all over it. I want to retexture it in a different texture set: however, since all my texture sets are symmetrical, all I want to change is which SET the map is using - the actual bitmaps and alignment and everything are just fine.
Anybody know of any tool that might let me do this, or if not, know where I might go into the map in a hex editor and change some value to do this?
