My First Map: Siltrock - Page 3

It's small enough that you don't really need to have the borders, I found out. You just know where everthing connects after a bit. I'm in the middle of a battle vs 3 easy AI's and I quickly overwhelmed Caelum. I like the two mountain passes on either side, and the dragon (quite a wall) in the middle. Having a tiny map sure changes the game!

Excellent Map! Thanks.

I am sooooooo happy that there are more small maps these days for 1x1 play.

Beauty! My brother and I will try it 1-on-1. My son wants me to play R'lyeh.

Quite unorthodox but man, that's one good-looking map!

For some reason I can't get it to work. No map named "Siltrock" appears in the list, even though I've put Siltrock.map into the maps/ directory, and copied Siltrock-borders.tga into maps/Siltrock.tga.

Any other ideas?

UPDATE: Oh, it is because the "maps" directory which is a sibling of the "mods" directory isn't the right place to put maps, is that right? Instead you should put them in the "maps" directory which lives in the app somewhere...]

UPDATE: Yep, that was it.

oh, you have to rename siltrock-borders.tga into siltrock.tga

the .map is designed to work with the border-less tga file, not the bordered one, I put the one with borders up for those that prefer it.

oh yeah, it needs to be in dominions 2/maps not under mods anywhere
