Maps DCW fo VR TOOL

Hi,

i'm looking for the 3 maps of Russia (Russia12, Russia22 et Russia32) in .CHT. I've downloaded them from http://www.maproom.psu.edu/dcw/ in .TXT and convert them in CHT. The process is OK but nothing happens when i try to import them in VR TOOL. I d'ont understand what is wrong because it works fine with other files dowloaded at same time.

Somebody could tell me where i make a mistake or send me the files in CHT ?

Thanks !


Edit:
I finally find the answer here: http://maproom.dlt.psu.edu/dcw/faq/ques6.html. But i have another question: is it possible to correct coordinates of the files for immport them in VR TOOL ?

I recall having the same problem during the VORG:
Russian map coordinates in the DCW map room
seemed to be expressed in a different unit.

Thanks for pointing the solution. Russian coordinates
expressed in meters, not degrees. I will have to change
the conversion utility.

Happy new year to all.

A Lambert projection... Anybody? :oops:

p.s.this must be a cold war thing..
