Fully Custom and Edited Maps (Batch #1)

10/10/2022 08:45 Cookie Maps the World#1
What is this?
I've decided to release a couple of the maps I've made to the public so here's a post.

I ended up making a couple maps that never got released and with the way things turned out I decided to release them for anyone to use. I created a [Only registered and activated users can see links. Click Here To Register...] that hosts the maps and has some information about them. I'll eventually end up adding more maps then making another post with more information.

How do I add these?
I'm not a server developer so I can't help you with the technical stuff but here's the basic rundown. You can drop the map files (except README.md) from the map folder into the client. You need to [Only registered and activated users can see links. Click Here To Register...] to access them on your server.

Each map's readme will have the exact data required for MiniMap.ani to add the minimap correctly, just be sure to replace the xxxx with your map's Id from GameMap.dat!



Fully Custom Maps
So far I'm releasing two new "arena" maps so servers can stop using the PK arena for every single event. They're about the same size as the PK arena in playable space but don't have the issue of being right on the edge of the screen.

Edited Maps
I edited a couple of the really small maps to fix that annoying bug of them being too small on larger resolutions. These maps don't have portals but that's something that super simple to add to any proper server so it shouldn't be an issue to fix that. If you don't know how to do something simple like add a portal then I guess you can maybe add an NPC to let you out.



Download
You can click the name of the maps to jump to that folder on the repo or simply [Only registered and activated users can see links. Click Here To Register...].

Please Note
I have written a couple instructions in the base folder's README.md that will help you with some common questions. Each map also has a README.md that explains it a bit and has useful information like coordinates and some copy-paste code for adding the minimaps with ease.

No I won't be releasing the map editor at this time. Please don't ask. You can fully suggest some new maps though! Or maybe just some other ones that need slight adjusting.

Seriously great work with these. Would be awesome to see a new town or new arenas using some of the leaked assets I posted about. Would be totally down to help with the Photoshop side if you let me know what format you want. Cheers, and keep up the good work!

I was looking at some of those and I'd love to get your help! I'll send you a message about it.

To be fair, I think this deserves a spot in the Private Server subsection of the Conquer Online section, as this can only be applied to private server development. Well, accurately and efficiently anyhow. The Private Server section would benefit from this far more than the Edits section.

Just my 2 cents.

Yeah... The names of these sections are really weird... but it's too late to correct them now. :( Custom maps / map development has always been in this section... so consistency is probably better than correction? There aren't that many threads though... they could be moved.

You're right, map edits have been in this section, as people could easily utilize those in retail Conquer to improve the aesthetics to their liking. But when it comes to something such as a custom map that can't be implemented into retail Conquer, then I'd say it would well have to be listed in the private server sub-section. While I agree that consistency is better than correction, this seems to be one of those one offs that better fit the criteria for the private server section.

Yeah, that's a good point. Well, you have me convinced - we can try to be consistent about it being in the CO2 PServer Releases section from now on. Just need a global moderator move this thread when they have time.
