[nbos] Skwyre Preview Edition now available!

[Michael Oliver]

Hi Ed:

I've downloaded the Skwyre preview and it looks pretty impressive - 
great that it is portable, too. My grandsons are recently showing more 
interest in fantasy adventures (SciFi  was the rule until now), so I've 
said I'll try to design one for them and use Skwyre to run it once it's 
in a stable form. I guess I could run SciFi scenarios just as easily as 
Fantasy but the in-thing with them is Fantasy.

I have one question: what map formats can I use? Obviously FM8 is usable 
but, when I tried JPEG & PNG files, the former would not upload and the 
latter uploaded but could not be selected. Will it, for example, accept 
any of my old CC3 maps?

Thanks for what looks like a really useful tool.

Cheers,

Mike
