Default Middle Earth Map?

Will Dom3 use the Dom2 version of Middle Earth with no problem? Or will I need to change anything?

Probably not. You might want to change the icons' size, or perhaps the color used for texts, but in general it should work about as well as it did for DomII.

ah, i am not good at doing that kind of stuff.....is there anyone out there that would like to re-do the Middle Earth map?

Actually, I will install it into Dom3, try it out....will let you all know how it looks....then, if it doesn't work right, maybe I can ask some of you map makers out there to make one?

I have tried, it says cannot place starting province. So no it will not work. Of the Dom2 maps I could find, alot seem not to work with Dom3.

Sadly I am no modder...

yeah, just found that out....could not find a starting province....

any modders out there want to make me a happy person? Not that my happiness means much to anyone...but still, it would make me very happy, as it was my favorite map from Dom2

I just found out as well. All Dominions II maps should work on Dom3. It might be a bug on Dom3, or some sort of small chance that no one noticed, or some strange way of erroneously doing the .map file that happened to work on DomII but doesn't on Dom3. It needs attention, any way. Thanks for bringing it up. Has anyone else noticed old maps not working?

The middle earth map for Dom2 works with Dom3 as long as you do not select any underwater nations.

Well that is handy to know! I hope the posters above read this.

BTW, where is this ME map for DOM2? I'd like to try it in Dom3. Would someone please post a link?
