Edyz MapMod

[edyzmedieval]

This is a small unofficial project for EB which I am working on.
I am editing the map, to provide a better quality of play.

My edits will include fixing map bugs(misplaced tiles, islands...) and some new features like new mountains and hills.

EB MapMod v0.2

http://www.megaupload.com/?d=1XU7VYHK

The updated MapMod includes all of the fixes below, including Bonny's latest complete sprite pack.


Map fixes

Germany River Bug



This is a bug of the map, in which the river doesn't end into the sea, it ends into the land. A small fix and this bug is repaired. The river now ends in the sea.

Macin Mountains



These mountains are the oldest mountains in Scythia Minor, today being extremely small(roughly 450 metres in height). I decided to represent them on the map

Iberia map fix



Just south of Sucum-Murgi, there is a map bug.
Sort of a "beach" in the south of the city, which allowed the river to go into the land. It was a tile problem in map_heights.tga.

Also, I carried some other improvements:
-Mytilene landbridge fix
-Bonny's Complete Sprite Pack included
-Armenia lake fix
-Indian coast fix

I still need to carry on some other editing.
Future fixes include:
-resources placement fixes
-heavy coastline bug fixing(Britannia and Red Sea)

[edyzmedieval]

Added Germany River Bug fix.

A before and after pic would probably even further show how much you've helped by making these changes. Just a recommendation.

[edyzmedieval]

Ah ok.

Working on some other stuff. The resources placement seems a bit muddled....

[edyzmedieval]

I'm nearing the completion of editing the Mytilene landbridge problem.
With this post, I am announcing that I shall use Bonny's Sprite Pack for my mod, to add some more flavour.

[Mithradates]

Any chance of this stuff gettin added to the port?

[edyzmedieval]

I guess so. If the team likes it, then it will be surely added to the port.

[Kralizec]

I'll download and install it when I'm through with my current campaign.

Just curious: what does Edyz mean? Is it your real name?

[edyzmedieval]

I plan on checking the correct placement of the resources. They might be a bit muddled though. I haven't had time.

I am compiling the work. I hope soon I can get the new sprite pack from Bonny, so I can include it.

Edyz comes from Edy(my name) + Z to make it more cool.

I thought Edyzmedieval comes from edy the medieval ( the changed to z)

[edyzmedieval]

Yeap, that too.

I might consider adding some skinpacks, though I'm not sure about this, because the EB units are very good.

[edyzmedieval]

Version 0.1 released!!!

See download link up ^^!!!!

[stalin]

Edyz my original corrected_regions.tga is in the
C:\Program Files\Activision\Rome - Total War
and not in

C:\Program Files\Activision\Rome - Total War\Data\world\maps\campaign\imperial_campaign

should I copy the file there anyway?

[edyzmedieval]

That's just generic stuff man.

And yes, do that. Plus, erase map.rwm after you copy the files!!!!

[draek25]

Thanks for your great work.May i request something edyz ? In my country megaupload is forbidden Could you please upload your great work to rapid or somewhere else ?

[edyzmedieval]

Megaupload is forbidden?

Where the heck are you? China?
Ok, I'll try to upload it somewhere else.

[draek25]

Nevermind , a country without hope Thanks again.

[edyzmedieval]

I've done some more minor work with the map.
Also, the new MapMod will include Bonny's new sprite pack and TK421's descriptions.

But for now, nothing new unfortunately, because I have exams.
The new MapMod will be out I guess on the 1st of July.

[edyzmedieval]

Here's a RapidShare link to my Map Mod.

[draek25]

Thank you so much.I am happy Here is a present
I will give feedback asa i try it.

[edyzmedieval]

Thank you Draek. Don't forget to erase map.rwm after you copy the contents.

[edyzmedieval]

Some updates guys.
I'm on the process of fixing 2 new bugs:

-Indian coast bug
-Armenia province bug

Also, Bonny's Sprite Pack will be added to the latest version of the MapMod.

[draek25]

Good to hear from you Edyz !! I couldnt try the mod because of my exams but i am eager to play eb+map mod Good luck with it...

[edyzmedieval]

The 0.2 version of the MapMod will be available on Monday or Tuesday.

[Tyfus]

can you add the new all-in-one sprite update from Bonny for v 0.2

Also I'm really interested to see your work on thiss map but If as you suggested you add new skins that might put me off because I really like the ones EB has made already. Maybe if you do, do that you could post them as a seperate file so people can still try your map with out having to use new skins.
Just a thought
Thanks alot

[edyzmedieval]

I won't add any skins man, relax.
I'm including Bonny's Sprite pack in the new MapMod version.

[Tyfus]

Awesome, thanks and I am relaxed. even better I'm chillaxed

[edyzmedieval]

MapMod v0.2 released!!!!
