If you can, please don't use Dirt terrain or objects on the "Ashan" level of map 5, just in case we can't add all new terrains.  Dirt may have to be replaced by Stellar, so we'd best play it safe.

Also, I'm working on something really special for the BD maps, so can I ask you whether you'll be putting any Inferno towns on Maps 5 or 10?

First of all there is no Ashan level in Map 5 just BD with underground, but Map 10 is double surface I already tried to add new terrain it worked, but it's not very useful if we can't add a button for the editor so my idea was to replace the conquest tiles since nobody uses them, I don't want to replace dirt since they are used a lot.

And don't worry there are no Inferno Towns  on Map 5 (No Towns except if your idea involves it) and 10 (Only Academy and Dungeon Towns except if your idea involves towns) but what is your idea? Does it has anything to do with Asylum?

Ah yes, Map 10 is what I meant.  If replacing the Conquest tiles will work for battlefields, hero screen backgrounds etc, that should be fine too.

My idea was going to be a secret but what the heck, I'll tell you.  It involves replacing the Inferno for the BD maps with a space/time themed faction called the Nexus.  I've already finished making many of the creatures.  (Replacing the Inferno is because we can't add new abilities, so we modify Gating)

Well it isn't possible to replace something just for one Map, but I can copy the shared interior and exterior files and change paths and since we can add new Creatures without replacing, we can change the dwellings.

By the way I got your terrain working I replace the Conquest Tiles and use TT_WASTELANDS that one is not used by another Tile and has a Hero Screen

Edit: How does this look?



The HeroScreen and CreatureScreen don't work anymore since I edited that Map (Maps/SmallSpecialArenas/HeroScreenArenas/SmallSpecialArena_Wasteland)

Does someone know how to fix that?

It must be possible to replace creature lineups and such for one map, they did it in Legends of the Ancients with their Harbour town.  Nice job with the terrains!  However they seem a bit brighter than normal for some reason.

@Cepheus: Yeah they did the same thing as I had in mind, they created a new shared file, interior, exterior and Dwelling files. Oh and the terrain is brighter due to the foggy AmbientLight.

@Ted: Thank you KD Ted No, that's Karador.

Edit: Since we can now add abilities to a Creature let's discuss something we haven't discussed yet: What abilities shall we give to the CF and CD, currently I have given them:

CD:
Living Creature
Flyer
Caster (Meteor Shower, Armageddon since he controls space)
Prismatic Breath (I hope I spelled it right)
No Enemy Relitation
Unlimited Relitation
Venom

CF:
Elemental
Flyer
Agillity
Magma Shield

They still need to be changed, but I need some help.

I dunno about the Magma Shield but I think CF should have Rebirth, maybe we could lower her stats to compensate since we want CD to be stronger.  Since Daystar made CD we should ask for his input (haven't seen Gnoll Mage recently).

Did you figure out how to make creature models bigger and smaller?  I'd like to know how to shrink the old Firebird model a little.

I thought Magma Shield was good since it's a stronger version of Fire Shield and I think rebirth would make the battle against the CD a bit too easy since it sould depend on your Crage build (Oh and by the way defeating the CD is not the end, someone will come and...... Said too much ) And I thought of Agillity because he looks slean and fast and I had an idea to give them a common abillity, because they're both Ancient Ones and maybe we could give the CD Berserking Rage since he unleashes his wrath upon Karador during Map 9 so it could be an Ability.

Oh and about resizing it's only possible with effects and not Models

*Sigh* for a moment I was hoping your Map was finished, but I hope you learnt from this and you now know to backup Maps often.  

Anyway all of the other mappers but Daystar officially quit now, so please Daystar hear me! E-mail me your files so I can fix them and please don't quit I really love your screenshots.  

Another thing if anyone wants to help with Mapping you would really be needed, this means Map 7 and Map 9.

Details for map 7 and 9?

As it is I'm rather troubled with myself over mapmaking. I'm not sure how to start it to get a decent, good map that's:

A) Good Looking
B) Natural Looking
C) Functional.

Particularly the latter two are a big problem to combine.



This is a multiplayer map I've been working on, but haven't worked on a while recently. I find it hard to find the right mood for it. It is Functional, but I feel it severely lacks a Natural look.

Functionable in the sense that you can basicly SEE the "nature" came AFTER the functionable placing of objects.



I think a major problem is that I spent too much attention to "micro-management", there's basicly little space reserved for sheer nature, I try to cram as much as possible in as little space as possible, and it shows. There's barely any open terrain that DOESN'T need to get walked, all the walkable area is reserved for just that, walking, there's not much open space to wander circles in. Think of it like Submarine corridors.

And it severely annoys me. There's no magical feeling to it on this map, so it's hard to continue it...

First of all the detais for Map 7 an Map 8 are posted somewhere inside this thred, if you can't find them I'll post them again.

Well I think your map is looking great, but that's just me.

But now something else, am I fooling myself? Did the interest go away I mean this thread is dying most posts are being made by Cepheus and me discussing some features so if there are still people who are interested, post it here, or else it's needless just trying to keep the thread alive because the project is active.

Look, perhaps people aren't posting because none of our work has been made available and playable yet.  Let's see the mod through, announce it everywhere and then people will start showing real interest.  Look at Book 1 of LotA.  There were only a few posts in the original thread, but now that it's finished there's been over a hundred replies full of praise and thanks to the makers.

This project must not die.  I've seen it happen before and I don't care whether ten people or a thousand people are interested, I'll finish my share of the work.

You shouldn't worry too much about the lack of interest. You're having fun creating all this, right?

At least when I make maps or mods I do it because I enjoy doing it. Wether people enjoy it afterwards when I make it available, is in my opinion an added bonus.

Thanks for the compliments but seriously, if you lay it next to any other official map that came with the game, it looks like crap.
