A Dovve's Map Upgrade

Ive held back on sharing this map with anyone else other than my guild and a few friends, because other mappers who've untaken similar projects have been met with some hostility.

Producing an in-game map which contains information about dyna camps and some unique mobs is a contentious issue really - I dont want to take away the pleasure of finding these things out for yourself, nor do I want to take away from the people who have made the effort to find these things for themselves.

However, Im of the opinion that since most of the information contained in my map is readily available at fansites and within this forum all im doing is moving that information to a more convinient location and anything that encourages folk to get around the famtastic landscapes on offer on Rubi-KA as much as I have in the making of this map is a good thing.

Enough waffle anyway heres what ive changed:

-Revised Some Text and the Colour scheme to show more of the terrain from the original game map
-Revised Grid Requirements list to include Borealis and Old Athen
-Ammended Grid points in Trade and Tir and added Old Athen and Borealis

-Added Dyna-Camp markers and approximate boss level
-Added Unique Encounters markers
-Added Legend For Unique Encounters

The Dyna-Camps contained in the map represent the event that took place within my guild over the few days following patch 14.5 and the hard work undertaken in that event to find all these locations.

For the Unique Encounters section I used Darxy's excellent thread and all the contributions therein as a reference, in addition to the knowledge gained in one and a half years of playing AO.

Last word must be a mention for Dovve, I wouldnt have even attempted this had she not done all the hard work first.




Try not to laugh but the best I can do for a host at the moment is geocities, fingers can get burnt over bandwidth so its more for the sake of caution than anything else.

Im told if you copy the following URLs and paste them with a space after it will work just fine.

Edit - ok, thanks to Zanity I have a better mirror for the map at least :)

The web site you are trying to access has exceeded its allocated data transfer. :)

hehe gummi ... like the new face ... reminds me of Jules from Pulp Fiction :)

... care for a royale with cheese?

:D

kymmie

Thank you Urshu. Finnaly a dovve mod that i really like!

thats pretty damn sexy

The zip file like times out before it starts downloading and geocities says your over your limit so can't even see the pic.

Nice map, you missed atleast 4 LCC's but good job overall.
However I have no idea what you've done with that zip link.. it tries to launch as a page then times out..
:(

Thanks :)

Im hoping to add the things ive missed as I come across them - I found lots of the things by accident, on my way to other places.

Its by no means comprehensive, Ive seen places that look like they should be dyna camps - but have never spawned mobs as far as ive seen; and then dyna camps in places which dont have any of the usual 'furniture'. Its hard to pin down to an exact degree, but I hope to get there.

The link for the zip file should work if you rclick and choose save target as..

Nice one dude.... I like this map a lot...

I really appreciate if you could keep on working on this one, when new info about camps and stuff is there.

Good job

Grats nice work!!

will install it as soon as i come home :)

Very nice :)

Thanks Urshu

Awesome! Still missing a few spots but I love it never the less. Excellent work. :)

bump for this great map
