dominions I recycling

[Kristoffer O]

Dom I maps can be found under downloads at www.illwinter.com I believe.

To make them useful you must remove the color dots at the top of the map. Otherwise there will be a province in the upper left corner of the world.

You should probably rescale the map as well, or add the line #defaultmapzoom 3.0 (or something like that) in the map file.

One important thing. The provinces are numbered differently, so old specials must placed in new provinces if you would like to keep them.

Also there are no terrains or province sizes in Dom I. All provinces from a Dom I map would be treated as plains of normal size, unless you reedit the map.

Thanks for this info. Some really nice maps there too.

I think i'll try that hexagonal North-America map since its most easier to place nighbours in it and its large map (I'm a sucker for large maps ).

Shouldn't take too long to make it Dom II compatible.

BTW, it'll be cool to have a Dominions "thread" at the Mod/scen forum.
Even if it should concern Dom2, it could also make a rally point for Dom1 material, even if the game isn't "technically" a Shrapnell thing...
