Because the court is a little further down . Then the library is a little further south (to you, west, but to mapmaker & game, south). Looks fine other than that . Hope to see you soon thousandeyes.

Yea, just save it as a text document, put it in the maps folder, open it in the editor and then save it under a different name

I'm currently making a tavern for Stoneglow, as most already now. For more, see my own blog. (I just put it here as well since the thread topic is "What maps are you making?!")

Update on SH:

I made an arena sort thing, which i am calling the colosseum. It is to the west of stoneglow. This means that i had to make a bit of surroundings to go with .

The surroundings are a marsh. The marsh's landscape is all finished and now i just need to put mobs in it, and end them with some other type of terrain.

Future

I am planning on adding a new city north of the village. The top layer of the area has 45 maps in it. In the middle of the thing is a large rocky outcrop (aka mountain). To the east of it is mountains, therefore suggesting that the maps that will eventually be in between SH and this new city will also be mountains.

In the event that now half of you who have not ever seen SH are now all confused, i will tell the locations of everything:

Stoneglow is on a different plane, aka only connected by teleporters. The village is south west of Stonehaven, connected by 26 maps (they are really only 9 maps away, so that means that the "path" is on average 3 maps wide). Now, this new city will be north of the village, so that means that it is directly west of the castle. I hope this helps. If it doesn't, i think i have a grid on my gallery .

Ok, that's all for now. GJ Cher on that tavern, it looks good--all nice and snug .

If you want to see SH and new maps, go to my TEST server at -server 67.183.111.129
The people who know my server address should note that it has changed in the last few days to this.

HA! you all thought I couldn't do it!

HA! :twisted:

Anyway...

Ravenwood
A once proud town, now a desert town, but is slowly regaining its pride.

Weapons Shop:
I've divided the reuglar shops. Weapons are all classes. Also, I put Misc. stuff in there like Food, Bags, Etc...

Defense Shop:
Exactly what it sounds like. Wide Variety of Shields, Guanlets, Etc...

Church:
Basic church really... nothing fancy...oh well

Ravenwood Old Sewers:
Jellies, Skeles, and other mobs await here as you try to take down the drow captain, who killed the town alchemist.

I'am currently starting over Ravenwood, because of all the layers of floors that were on there, and that you could see them when you walked around

Update to Shadoaks

Shadoaks is the city & maps north of the village. The landscape basics are all done, and now i am going to detail. I am making the mountains look cool by blending rocks and adding foilage (i wish daimonin had a Z axis...). I will later be blending the boundries in so that it isn't a line of trees that blocks you, but a patch of dense forest that blocks you.

Everything is taking shape. I don't think that Shadoaks will be in B4, but for sure B5.

Hmm well I think I'll shove my foot in here.

In building but not properly thought out:
Drow Underworld (medium sized dungeon, about DT sized on plan)
Old Valley (town, has all essentials, two small high level dungeons)

That's all so far... still need to learn some scripting

Good luck with that Slash, i know it has been tough for you to get everything working and right in this constantly changing period of the game. It has been hard for me to even add on stuff in all of this . Have fun with it, i can always help you if you need me.

Yo, i have been making a few maps lately, Ther not done properly yet but there starting to come along,



Timberland Outta reagion:

A normal sized Forest with a little stream, with a bridge leading to a hut with a few mages in, there could be a quest there. There is a big forest with *loads* of Treants and wierd creatures. there a big maze type thingy with a church with 2 gaurds outside and a priest indoors and he can have a quest on him.

Timberland Main City:

It will have a library, a few houses, a bar, a blacksmith and a few others. there will be a little church with a priest inside who can giv you a quest. Inside the bar there can be an archer who can give you a quest and the reward and can be a spell, Enchanted Arrows or something lol The blacksmith can give you a mini quest to find objects for him to make an Enchanted Serpant Sword or something. lol

D-unit HQ:

Allows all D-Unit members to come in talk play around in the underground with all the killer jellys and skeletans or you could go down another level into the SECRET D-unit Lobby, "ONLY" D-unit members can get in, any other clans can come into the 1st part just not the Underground and the SECRET underground lobby.

Orcish Camp:

There will be an Orc village with friendly orcs but if you go deeper into the forest then you'll get the Dangerous orcs witch our waiting lash out on you, the Friendly Orc Priest can give you a quest  and the reward could be a spell called Beserker Strenght and a Flame ability your weapon and rasies your strenght by so much.

A few of them i havnt even started to create but there my Ideas for the maps i would like to make, may take some time but oh well. =D

 .:*Future*:.

Maybe you should start out slow. Try a 4 map thing, 2X2 maps, 24X24 tiles and make something good there that you think would get in the game.

A good way to look at it is look in the game for a spot that is like your own, and see how they compare. Do your maps have -way- too many mobs in them (most maps do), do you have *no* groundcover (yup, generally the case), do you have any quests in your maps (hardly ever when somebody enters their first maps), do your maps look real?

Remember, a good mapset takes a long time to create, not 4 hours or so, but days.

I have been building many optional maps which I use on my "server" (where I test them).
Is it possible to send them to you and they would be included in b4 or b5 maybe...

Please tell me who do I have to send them to, in order to make them alive....

Thank you,
Carasoph,

hehe, it better be good d-unit hq, I've currently got a very very nice one built.

Send anything you want checked out to me i guess, i'll check them out asap. PM me and i'll reply with my email. Zip up the maps first BTW, they go in text form otherwise...

Cheers,
Unislash

im new to the forums and i got a few questions.
1) how do i make a new server, just to test out the maps i made.
2)how do i load my map into the server.
3)is there a way to have players fight eachother? my map is a battleground for higher level players to fight eachother. it also has mobs and some treasures.
