Default Other maps

I read somewhere on here that other maps can be made/used/found.....Anyone know where, or anyone attempting to make new maps?

Default Re: Other maps

thats not easily doable, in the demo at least :

the easy parts :

1) replace the colored pixel band in the upper left corner by a black band

2) replace #title by dom2title

3) add
#defaultmapzoom 2.5

be sure that the map is not scripted, as many commands are not supported (#additem eg).

the killing part :
4) find manually all neighbors of all provinces, and script them.


the random map generator (of Keldon) on the other hand generate all neighbors command, so a RMG'ed map should works fine. Take a look at Gandalf's site.

I have an idea. Why don't you use those links as your signature (as many ppl on these Boards do). That way people will have much easier way finding those random map generators.
