You're very welcome elmokki. I was going to wait and see if there were any further reports of problems, fix them, and then append it to your riverlands map thread.

It took me over 15 hours to fix everything.......Nothing compared to creating a map, I know ... I wish I had artistic skills...

lol. That's something only the maker would notice. I certainly didn't notice. It's a very nice map and I think, the way it has been reconfigured, it will make for a very interesting MP map. The interconnected lakes makes for very interesting play by bringing essentially everyone "closer" to the central VP core. I think it's very nice work. Thank you for the map. ^_^

...and of course, thanks to chris for fixing it up.

I just noticed that one of the VP provinces (the SW part of the central island) doesn't have a crown on it.

Huh, 15 hours? I don't think I spent more than 5 making the map, but that definately shows with the phantom provinces and lacking connections etc. Those are the most boring part and I've generally just tried to get them finished as quickly as possible. I've tried to be more careful with them lately, but then again a 200+ province wraparound isn't something I'm planning to do again anytime soon.

And no, it doesn't really require any artistic skill to draw some continents and borders and slap in graphics someone else has drawn.

Yes; I said I was going to do so around tax day as I knew I was going to be out of town.

TwoBits · #**129** April 18th, 2010, 09:14 PM

Uh oh, that was 4 days ago! I hope the tax man won't come after you for being late
