Map: Faerun 466 - Adventure Map! (UPDATED!)

[jmccrea70]

Have you ever thought about a complete conversion...adding races that are appopriate to the realms and possibly the classes. Though that could be a very limited selection of units...and would prolly be alot of work. Since most of us have lives outside of games(which is too bad actually) this prolly isnt possible. Still great mod and seeing that map was like being back home haha

Strange im not seeing any sigs...wonder if I have that turned off

Also, Can I use the Better Independents mod and the Faerun map at the same time? Sorry if this is a noob question. Im guessing I would have to make a mod folder and put them into their and the game would then run them?

The Faerun Map remains in the "map" folder, where I assume you have it installed if it is working correctly.

Better Independants is a mod and goes into the "mods" folder. You can use it with Faerun (or any map). To use any mod you go to Preferences->Mod Preferences->[click on mods to enable them]. Then start a new game. Any mods enabled at the time of game creation will be incorporated into that game. If you load any previous (saved) game Dominions recognizes the mods you started it with and automatically loads those mods for you.

In general all maps are compatible. However, mods rely on a limited set of Identification numbers (for units and such), so if two mods use the same Id numbers for different stuff then weird results can happen (from getting the wrong unit/spell/armor/whatever to the game crashing). It is an easy fix though, if you just look into a little modding. I thing Gregstorm (or someone?) made a nice mod-reconciler tool that fixes such errors.

Some maps (like the Dom 3k maps and the Antilarium map) require certain mods to work properly, but beyond that all maps should work with all mods.

Finally, if you enjoy Faerun (which is a great adventure map) you might want to look into Antilarium (Here) and Gang Wars (Here).

There are probably more, but those two spring to mind.

Thanks much Fate...appreciate it!!

Edi,
Is #poptype 120 (in province #455 [Western High Ice] for example) used for "no recruitables" or is it a valid poptype?

[Edi]

It's a poptype that eliminates recruitables. Valid poptypes end at 89, I think. Using numbers past 100 results in no recruitables at all.

119 and 112 look like they should be connected

Im in this thread because of a request to re-randomize it with SemiRand.
Im wondering, was the new versions of provinces updated for the SemiRand copies also?

[Edi]

Whoops, didn't see that post before now. I'm not sure. Go ahead and rerandomize this map if you like, Gandalf. I've not done anything related to SemiRand, so no idea about the province lists on that.

To get the adventure map, which of these downloads from the link will I need?

10 APR 1009 and 01 MAY 2009 ? or are one of those later files a complete version?
