    Very very interesting! If I wasn't already engaged in a (similar) project, I'd definitely help. For now, I'll just wish you good luck and hope you stick with it.

    A potential idea would be to use the ship range trick VI uses to allow Valinor to be on the map. More suited to a Silmarillion-era campaign, a way to allow the Eldar to have a play.

    I love the maps, btw.

    I spoke with Burns - there is no mtw version of the files for the old me:tw in existence as far as he knows.

    It's a pity but I'm not surprised. Anyway, thanks for your efforts.

    Not exactly "working". I realized few weeks ago that I don't remember the trilogy enough and I need some inspiration (ideas for buildings mainly). So now I'm reading books and other related stuff, watching movies, etc. I've been busy with my RL life lately too so not much of a progress has been done.
    The other things that slightly discouraged me are hardcoded limits. One of my friends is good with C++, assembler and other programming stuff so I gave him a task to find out if there is any possibility to make some changes in the exe and dlls. I don't expect too much but... who knows?

    btw Do you think that elves had brothels? What about orcs or dwarves ?

    P.S. Thanks for your question. During writing this reply I've come up with a new idea (no, not about brothels). Maybe not a big one but something worth to try.

    Gay hotties would be certainly elves and gay hunks dwarves (always such hatreds have homoerotic connotations in depth - see Top Gun for details...) and some sadomaso orcs/urukhai couples ;)

    You're welcome, RL always comes first, take it easy :)
