Kristoffer - I think they're after your terrain sprites to make the randomly generated maps look nice

Aha, oops, maybe I'm behind the times.

It has a very retro gamer feel to it.

Thanks! That is kind of what I was shooting for.

did you intend for the gold colored mountains to be different in some way (other than color) from the grey ones? Are there any other special features that are more than appearence? What about those bones?

There is no difference in mountains. Just color. The gold colored ones are Wesnoth desert mountains and the grey are my re-colored variants of those tiles.

In this particular map, the graphics basically just denote terrain. Most variations are just decoration. The only real distinctive one off the top of my head are the farm tiles, which are all farmland with large province type flags. I think that I may have set a few "many site" flags, but I can't remember what scheme I used now.

I believe the MP community is longing for more wraparound maps.

If there is an interest, I will see if I can come up with some wraparounds.

It definitely has a Wesnoth look and feel to it. What kinda hexmap editor do you have there? Has it been released yet?

I love Wesnoth! Very fun game.
The editor is a vb project that I started back in Dom2. It has never been released and is so far from being user friendly at this point, that it will be some time before it ever is.

I mostly just need to get motivated to clean it up and finish it. It was more fun to just make maps instead of coding.

Pardon the ignorance, but what's Wesnoth, which editor are you using, where can I get it and where can I also get those tiles? Because I really like the graphics.

Did I mention that I love Wesnoth?
The tiles are modifications of wesnoth tiles and I did not make any use of their terrain blending, so it is all much prettier in the actual Wesnoth game.

And if you look close at the farm tile in particular, you will see KO's house & grain stalks which I used from his sprites. (Thanks for sharing those KO!)


Ugh. I gotta go back to work.

Oh, and here is a youtube trailer for Wesnoth:

Thank you for "Battle for Wesnoth", it was a nice addition to my collection. I also love Wesnoth. You also cleared up my questions concerning the terrain. I'll be looking for that wraparound map! Thanks again.

Hmm, seems easy to make wraparound with this one. I suspect there is a demand for these, since the generator can't handle wraparound.

Indeed. I for one would love to see a large wrap around map, comprising several shapely (non blobby) continents, with 22 fixed start positions that are relatively well balanced. Alas, I don't know how to mod or make maps and lack the time (currently) to learn. If I apportioned time to learn, I would lose my time to play.

ick la mo mi threda morte
ne na'pa dema

ahora la threda VIVA

*the thread stirs for a moment, then begins to move forward. its rotted empty eyes stare blankly ahead, its jaw is skewed and awkward, its flesh worm-eaten. what horrible foul person would bring undead life to a body which wishes only to sleep?*

OK. thread necro just to say:

...I think Wesnoth sucks. I was a cult loyal fan of Master of Monsters, which directly inspired Wesnoth, and MoM is approximately 15 times better. It just had the panache, the feel. You know? It was perhaps even more strategically satisfying; but I can't really say. Whatever, Wesnoth just can't get me going.

If you think you like Wesnoth, download a Gensis emulator and give Master of Monsters a spin.

Also. nice map. I'm going to use it now.

arg reanimation of the foulest kind... dead thread reanimation without a particular reason except to whine

"download a Gensis emulator" .... right .... I don't even know what a gensis is but emulators suck... I used one to play speedball 2 once (I found a version not needing an emulator later on which is much nicer.)

While we are being off topic: speedball 2 ROX.. happy amiga days when I played it

[Omnirizon]

don't know what a Genisis is? where you living in a cave on an island in the south pacific in the mid 90s?
