Good job!  One question for everybody: when I double-click the WoG garrison, the editor crashes. Is it just me or...? I've tested it and it works fine in-game though.
Mamgaeater is next! Please let us know if you need help installing WoG or creating your part. The deadline is one week.
i've tried but my comp crashed on me... it happened when i placed the fourth style of treaure chest down. I don't know if it can be resolved but it was definately wog... I'm sorry i'll have to drop out.

Too bad. I guess either something went wrong during the installation or it's the map itself (I see a few people used Object Editor).
Anyway, Ednaguy is next! Let us know if you have any problems, OK? The deadline is one week.

The garrison works fine with me.
I have Object Editor installed but I didn't use it because of compatibility issues. Is it possible the bugs come from this software ?
EDIT : I just checked the map (shift+v), there is two unreachable objects now  Hope the next mapmaker is nice enough to fix it

Fixed it.
Done with my part (didn't add much, though).
Map can be downloaded here
Here's a preview of some of the things I've done:
The fountain at the top of the waterfall is supposed to be unreachable

Love it! We must come up with some interesting quest for this location...
Anyway, kesnar is next! The deadline is one week.
Also, he's the last on the list. Do we wait for more people to sign up or go all over again? Are you guys interested in doing another part? Let me know.

I could surely do another part, I didn't actually do very much. And for the quest, we could use Water Elementals and/or the Orb of Driving Rain.

I am starting now...
I won't put a lot of things as I am not very skillful mapmaker and not a scripter...
Also the map is Balkans?!?(I am from Greece(it doesn't matter but anyway))

The map shows Greece and west Turkey for sure
IMO, don't wait too much for new people, we can easily do more parts while keep the list still open.
The waterfall is beatiful

Yeah, the layout represents the Balkans (although elaf kinda screwed up Greece when she changed the terrain to swamp). There's nothing special behind the idea, I just thought the shape looked cool. By the way, I used to live in that Fortress town...

You said we could do whatever we wanted, so you can't blame her for doing anything wrong

Haha, I guess you're right. I was just kidding actually, I don't mind at all - it's not a historical scenario or anything. But I bet if she had done it to Salamandre, she would have been dead meat.

But when would Salamandre let anyone participate in making any of his maps?

I was thinking this map was gonna do a couple of rounds amongst us anyway, so I'm certainly up for doing a bit more.
Unreachable objects are not always a problem. I'm sure Vlaad made the skeleton at the start unreachable on purpose. But if you're playing the map, you still try to get to it, and then it's a bit of a bummer when you notice you can't. So I took the liberty of putting a sign in front of the skeleton with a request for food. A player will then read the sign, and the skeleton then becomes a pilgrim who has died of hunger, and a story element rather than an unreachable object. It you're not happy with it, just change it again, Vlaad, but the idea seemed alright to me.
It's quite realistic, a thing like this happening, even for the world of today. I remember a case of a girl, I think she was in her late twenties, who had gone on a long walk on her own to Cape Wrath, here in the north of Scotland - this was only a couple of years ago. Cape Wrath is a pretty isolated place, you don't want anything to happen to you while you're there on your own. Anyway, she was missing already for a while, and eventually farmers that were checking their sheep found her remains in the bothy at Cape Wrath. In the window she had put a sign, asking if people could spare some food for her. But it was winter time, and then weeks can go past without anybody passing that bothy. She must have become weak or something, and couldn't get out of there on her own anymore.
So I couldn't help thinking about that this when I put that sign asking for food on the map.

Well now that you've told that story, I would be a total jerk if I deleted the sign, wouldn't I?

i just realized something today...
I spent a few hours last week designing a map for wog and no problems...
If might very well have been a compatibility issue or a onetime bug
Do i need object editor installed or something.
I may be able to help on the next map if it is just one of the two...

Yeah, I think it's just the object editor... It crashed for me too because I don't have it installed at the moment. However, I was able to edit the map and it worked fine in-game. My guess is you'll be OK if you don't try to check or set the properties of the objects others have created. When kesnar is done, download his file and give it another try.
