(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); Okay, this is terribly easy.

Step 1:
open your FF up in FFViewer

Step 2:
Open the "mp/basemaps.arena" file within FFViewer

Step 3:
Where it says "mapimage", after that it should say something like: "preview_mp_highrise"
What you are going to do is change the preview_ part to one of the other previews that you see in there, here is a list of them:
    
"preview_mp_invasion"
"preview_mp_highrise"
"preview_mp_checkpoint"
"preview_mp_nightshift"
"preview_mp_favela"
"preview_mp_quarry"
"preview_mp_brecourt"
"preview_mp_derail"
"preview_mp_subbase"
"preview_mp_underpass"
"preview_mp_estate"
"preview_mp_rundown"
"preview_mp_boneyard"
"preview_mp_terminal"
"preview_mp_rust"
"preview_mp_storm"
"preview_mp_compact"
"preview_mp_complex"
"preview_mp_crash"
"preview_mp_overgrown"
"preview_mp_abandon"
"preview_mp_fuel2"
"preview_mp_trailerpark"
"preview_mp_vacant"
"preview_mp_strike"



Now, change it and save! Now your done!

You can also change the text in the same file! Enjoy! Video coming soon!

7Sins is a website not the guy that made the tutorial 'kiwimoosical'. I've added the credit for you.
