In this case it is probably a good idea to use a new map version.

Thanks Archae.

I really think we ought to use the edited version. Personally, I know that if I start anywher NEAR the summoning circle I am going balls out for it!

Fantomen · #3 September 18th, 2009, 05:01 PM

Yeah I vote also for changing summoning circle to something else, It should still be a nice site IMO, just less game breaking.

Burnsaber, thank you for the heads up.
archaeolept, thank you for the detailed report and revised map. However, this game will host on llamaserver and can only use the maps on the server.
I assume, being as the server is so awesome, that there is a way to upload user maps but am not yet familiar with it. I'll try and see if I can learn more by checking the server FAQ.

Guys, I agree with all that we better use Archae's edited map. I won't start the game until I find out how to load it to the server and set our game to use it.
If you are doing test games then you should use this map as well.

The tourmaline map already uploaded should work.

Hi Trumanator, What is the exact uploaded map name?- I'm trying to find it in the list of U/Led maps. So far w/o success.

Does it contain all the fixed to the issues pointed out by Burnsaber and Archae?

EDIT: BTW, I checked Archae's map and it works with dom-III (after editing the tga map name). I also found out how to U/L it to the server. Since we're back from a party and it's late night here I'll probably take care of this tomorrow.

Seems like something's wrong with Archae's map. I just noticed in a test game that the provinces connection doesn't make sense. For example, 147 should be connected to 151 , 160, 157, 138 and 145 but is instead connected to 156, 164, 146 and 141.

Probably something to do with dom-II to dom-III transition.

I think you could use Sombres Dom3 converted map file and copy Archaes balance changes into it.

Upload the map using this linkie (can also be foud through the map & mod browser)

The map I used for Tourmaline is NI Shahrivar 10 starts. Unfortunately, it won't work for this game due to the fact that it only has, well, 10 starts. I'm also pretty sure none of those starts are coastal.

I like simple solutions and since my capabilities in the area of map editing are practically non-existent I think we can either:
A. Rely on the kindness of someone who is competent at map editing to apply the fixes. Perhaps ano will be kind enough to take a look - I'll PM him later...

B. Just find another similar size map that doesn't have all these issues.
