Subchaser’s Map Mod V2 NOW AVAILABLE

*bump* - because its important [:D]

hello

I use your old version of the map, love it by the way.

I thought that your map was simply cosmetic. I have a pbem game going and have upgraded to 1.6 (started in 1.5). I have no
idea if my opponent uses your map. I planned on updating to your knew map when it comes out. So, a couple questions:

If my opponent doesn't use your map but I do, can serious problems occur?

If I update to your new map version, do I need to update pwhex still?

Note: I don't use any mods except graphic changes (your map and Cobra's ship sides)

Thanks a lot for the map, it really is the best looking one around. [:)]

"Subchaser's" map is 100% cosmetic (and so beautiful that we all _ADORE_ it)!

Therefore it is of no importance whatsoever if you use original Matrix/2By3 map or "Subchaser's" map (or if your opponent is using one or another)!

But, the problem is that neither original (Matrix/2By3) map nor "Subchaser's" map is "real" - let me explain - it is of _NO_ importance what we see as graphics representation of a HEX - the HEX value is what matters (i.e. the code you see when you press "2" on keyboard in game).

What "Subchaser" will now do is to close his map graphics much closer to what actual underlying map data realy is!


I hope this helps...

So that means we can run PBEM turns using it and it wont have any effect on the game? And my opponent doesnt need the new map with HEX value changes to continue play?

Yes.

It means exactly that... it is all pure "eye candy" for our visual pleasure...

Hi all,

Like I promissed here is a list of HEXes that I think would benefit from more sea pixels (i.e. bluish paint):


84, 32 - Petropavlovsk
69, 37 - west of Sapporo
49, 44 - east of Tainan
29, 31 - west of Pagan
18, 21 - Madras
20, 47 - Bankha
53, 91 - Port Moresby
48, 92
46, 109 - Rockhampton
38, 125 - Sydney
33, 127
28, 125 - Melbourne


I hope this can help you "Subchaser"!

Yes... you can and it won't

It doesn't matter what map art you use, it just can't cause any data problems. Just make sure you're both have the same pwhex.dat file...

[Crimguy]

Thank you for all the hard work! The best map out there - should be used by Matrix to replace the original, IMHO.

Hitting refresh on Spooky's site every 10 minutes . . .

[Subchaser]

Map was sent to Spooky, it will be uploaded when he will be able to do it… at least I hope so.

Anyway… you can download map right now, the link below will work for the next 7 days. By that time I hope map will be available at Spooky’s.

Speedy, on Spooky’s site mod will be uploaded in four parts, 1+2 map with hexes, 3+4 map without hexes, so it will be possible to download only one map variant, it's 55mb large (30+25mb). I believe it’s quite possible to download it even with dial-up connection.
