Oh man. I'm Brydian from Imperian. Was randomly looking through the IRE boards and stumbled upon this. I had a vague idea to map all 4 games in my spare time, but forgot it after Imperian started expanding again and I had more rooms to map.

Hrm. It's tempting to start again, although daunting. Imperian has roughly 15k rooms, Aetolia something like 13k? Achaea probably has a ton and Lusternia has... 7k? Hrm. Starting characters from scratch and making maps. Tempting, but time-consuming.

By the way Shamarah, I can tell you how to map looping rooms and such, just email me at brydinut@gmail.com or whatnot. That way, you can have a nice row of (*)'s. :3 I love mapping. It's an obsession.

Brydian is a god.

Hi Deo. How's Jally?

Oh, and my map's nowhere near completed in Imperian. Too many houses and Order temples and guildhalls popping up. Actually, most of the temples are at least partly mapped. And I'm just missing the Mage, Lorekeeper and Wytchen guildhalls. And all the new guilds, drat. Too many houses left to break into.

My map of Lusternia has 8250 rooms in it currently, and it's missing the seas (which would be a LOT of extra rooms) and the middle part of the catacombs which is a decent number of rooms, but no one goes there anyway. Of course, I stumble upon secret parts of areas every so often and add them to my map (I also know for a fact I'm missing crap like parts of Zoaka which you can only get to through an elaborate quest that I haven't got around to doing...)

And I know how to do looping fine - the kind of non-euclidian stuff is retarded things like a certain south exit on the Mystic River in the Water Plane that will sometimes lead to the Mystic Falls and will sometimes wrap around to the beginning of the river, depending on your luck :/

Ooh, that sounds tough. I haven't really run into it in Imperian except for a few rooms that change names depending on tides and a few others. I think Whyte might know how to do it, if you ask him. Probably need to go into the code and change stuff.

Yeah, it's just that one room though, and it figures out where it is after that. Not really worth the bother of coding around.

Yea, not really worth the effort. I'm just kinda obsessive, which causes me to break into houses and shops to get those few rooms. I even picked up the Outrider (Hunter/Sentinel) profession just for track. :

Rofl, ok, even I'm not that bad, though I'll admit to getting people to spar me just so I can map the arenas. I've considered breaking into guildhalls to map them, but I haven't actually done it yet...

Jally's good, busy though. He's been working and last I heard he's been in California for something?

You stopped sending me the Imperian map =P. I could have gotten you into the mage GH as Inulya . Deo can get you Lianthe's GH, it got changed with the last goddess.

I'd wondered why you had Outrider prof.

I have a Lusternia map that does the job for me, and as a bard, milestones and teleporting are pretty nifty. It's impossible to get lost in Lusty (especially if you don't bash!)

I mostly play here because the library system is looooovely and Elostian is the bestest.

Heh, go check out the undervault and say that again ;)

(Well, I mean, you can teleport out, but... yeah.)

why would I go there if I don't bash?

Lusternia has a total of 14120 permanent rooms.

That is with or without Manse rooms??

I had divine created rooms at no more than 11,500.

I'm missing areas the equivalent of 2 x Undervault?!?

Oops, I forgot to login... That's me whut jus posted that.



I recently discovered that dreamwalking seems to be unaffected by waves! Wish that skill had been around when I mapped them

Does that include manses, stockrooms, etc?

That is all permanent rooms yes.

Please note that the plane of creation is also included in this, I was lazy and didn't feel like deducting, let's take creation -very- roomy and deduct 2000 rooms, that's still a hell of a lot more than 7k. (Also please note, there's not nearly as many as 2k rooms on creation)

What do you gods need with 2000 private rooms?!

Or, is the Plane of Creation rooms that will be added later to the game?

Oops--I see you made an edit. Nevermind...

Hmm. Yeah, that sounds reasonable, given probably ~1000 rooms in creation, ~500 rooms between the seas, and a hodgepodge of guildhalls, stockrooms, and manses that I haven't mapped.

Okay, now I'm determined. I want to map the guildhalls. Who wants to let me into their GH? >_>

Yeah ok that fits. I've got just over 10,000 so far. Adding guildhalls, temples, stockrooms and the other bits I'm missing to bring it up to 11,000-11,500. With Manses, and creation making up the difference.

Edit: One day Caffrey will be driven mad by not being able to map the guildhalls and break into them all! He can forsee this, he's an Astrologer.
