A Bunch of New Maps

[Rippsblack]

[Edit]

I have made 13 skirmish maps so far, and too many to keep posting 4 at a time in single posts, so i have added them into a pack containing them all

Some of the maps have been updated so as not to be so shit.

(some of them had mountains in desert resulting in uglyness)

that has now been fixed.

I have attached screenshot of mini map images from the skirmish gui

Great! Thanks for your effort. I'll try them asap when i'm at home.

[stefanhendriks]

With your permission I will add them to the next version of D2TM (v 0.5 and further).

[X3M]

My map as well? or do i need to use a special editor?

[stefanhendriks]

I don't know if it is included, I have simply taken this mappack. If you want your map included, you can always email it to me. You can create maps with the map editor (see forum).

The new version will be more friendly for skirmish map files. (fyi: you don't need to name the filename mapxx.ini, etc).

[Rippsblack]

Glad to see these maps are going to use ;)

@Rippsblack I know this is a very very very old forum thread, though I did include skirmish maps in 0.5.0 now ( I believe most , if not all are from @Rippsblack)although if @X3M also has some maps I would gladly add them to the new release.

I was thinking many of these - the ones within map size limits anyway the smaller ones would be easy ports back to D2TM format.

[X3M]

I did have a map in the past. But I forgot how I created it. And the map itself is gone as well. After all those years, I got several pc's.

[X3M]

It was a map called 4 corners, 4 players.

Mountains as a cross, 12 thick, so no rocket launcher madness.

The buildable area was something like 18x18 and the spice ring would have been 7 thick.

Simple and humble I guess. The AI went very bad though.

[stefanhendriks]

thanks! I believe these maps are already included; and I usually test with such maps since the AI has enough space to build a base.
