I am willing to switch to a water race if you want to do Europe map lol. I never used either water race in mp either.

For the map picks I have only played inland and karan. I have no idea what the other maps are so I will just let you guys decide on a map.

Cradle will work quite well for a water race, and probably even ought to have one. There is a nice collection of water provinces on the left side of the map and even a bay deep into the map interior.

I think we are supposed to do the cradle2 Version, which supposedly fixes some bugs in the allowed start locations from the earlier Versions (1 and 1.4?). All my tests so far have been on Version 2 of the map, and I have yet to find a totally screwball starting spot. That does not mean they ain't there, though.

Grim, you, as the host, are the only one who really needs the map file. Look at the one on the illwinter site labeled 'PhilD's fixed map' and see if it is a later Version than the zencradle14 one.

Everyone else just needs the tga file, I believe.

Zen, if you read this, can you elaborate on your Version 1.4? Is the Version 2 better?

If the Date Modified Stamp in the .zip files is any indication then the zencradle14.map is the most recent.

The cradle2.map has a date modified of 04/24/2004

The zencradle14.map has a date modified of 07/11/2004

This is what I base my assumption of Zen's Version being the most recent.

Switch my Pythium to Ryleh if we play a map that is acceptable for a water race.
