I have a map of the Toronada Tidal Flats that I rather like - is there anywhere I can post it to make it more accessible to others?
I guess here is as good as anywhere:

I think you left out the hidden entrance to the Catacombs. But other than that, very nice. ![thumup.gif](style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/thumup.gif)

o_O Hidden entrance to the catacombs?
Estarra2005-08-31 17:24:19
Rauros, what catacomb entrance? I think all rivers must look alike to you.
Shorlen, I love the map--can I use it on the website? Email me a copy!

<3 Shorlen. I was too lazy to map it, so I would just write down directions from landmarks to the different people.
Kayde2005-08-31 17:52:48
Aye, it is a really nice map. I had only visited it a couple of times, but the map will certainly help the younger ones get around there easier, as it's a bit confusing. Good Job.
Richter2005-08-31 18:03:02
Younger ones? Heck, it'll help -me- to get around. I'd be lost without my maps.

Heh, thanks
I can't get anywhere without a map, having a terrible sense of direction in MUDs and refusing to use an automapper. So, I either use the maps on the website, or if they don't exist, I draw one. I love how gridded Lusternia is - so easy to draw maps with photoshop and make them come out looking neat ![biggrin.gif](style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/biggrin.gif)

Try saying that after you've mapped New Celest.

A lot of them arent gridded
like this for example... A lot of others are like that... most I had trouble with i think was bondero bay with the new isles.

Correction - MOST of Lusternia is gridded. New Celest is by far the worst about not being gridded, though I like the shape of it

Okay, Bondero Bay was designed by SADISTS! Sadists who hate Cartographers! By the gods, that was insane trying to draw a clear map of it. I think I might have possibly succeeded. Can someone tell me how good/cruddy this looks?

I think it looks good, but personally it confuses me a bit trying to figure it out (probably sad on my part but its true). I usually use this link, though I do like how yours looks better and lists where things are on the islands (not to mention neater and cleaner):

I kept trying to make it look nice without seperating the islands off, and I just couldn't. The only way I could think of to make it look neat was to seperate things =\\ If it's too confusing though, it's too confusing.

Bondero Bay wasn't so bad by itself. It became awful because the islands were added as an afterthought.
On my own little MUD, I've got a geography trick that prevents problems like that, but it's the sort of thing you've got to plan using from the moment you start building, 'cause it just ain't worth going back and overhauling the whole world. :-P
