- Seal your design.
- The 3D map has to be water-sealed by a hallo reverse cube or cube shell.

As I dont have any Windows machines anymore and this was writen in old times using C++ MFC and Visual studio I am left with a prebuild version since. This short tutorial follows howto for Linux. I started a port to QT thouhg few years ago, aka see: qgetic but I did not have time to finish it. In windows, I dont know if still runs, but under Linux using wine looks like is working.
