Need help regarding symmetric terrain

The title basically says it all, Im making my own version of a Heaven vs. Hell, but i have real trouble when it comes to making the map terrain symmetric if you get where im coming from...

Having trouble finding the middle points on the map :x
(middle of the X axis on both sides)
(middle of the Y axis on both sides)

If there is any program or different editor that is good at this, dont hesitate to post it :)

I don't think there's a program for that, but what you can do is close the map, and open it again. The camera will be set on the middle of the map.

yeah i think it too ... but i use the grid from the editor ... set it to big and count on each side then take the half of both and u go to middle, that isnt easy and could take a while but u surely find the middle ;)

Yeah, just use the grids.

Windows->New Palette->Cameras

Create the camera double click on it or select it from the list and hit edit camera properties. From there just change Target X and Target Y to zero. That's the easiest way to find the center of the map at any time. If you keep the camera there you never need to do it again on this map.
