Custom Maps and New Ones

Kir · #1 01-09-2005, 07:42 AM

TBH this is my main goal on tweaking my UI.
I have a new set of maps designed to be displayed in-game.
I wish i could put them here already. But that doesnt work cause the
current maps are hardcoded. I can modify the existing ones but this is
not what i want.

Do you know if SOE plan to let us add new in-game maps for areas that
do not contain one ? The xml is ready, i just need a Go.

You didn't read far enough, it has went through 3 different projects, a simple map in the journal, my map with lots of programming and good maps, but no location indicator, then a complete addition to the existing map window which is the current project. Sorry to say you're a little late on this one.

Eloa, can you get with me at some point on your map UI? Maybe via PM? I have some questions about the default SOE map window that maybe you have sorted out already. Mainly it has to do with the way they structured it. I am not happy with it, and want to rewrite the default map window (but still make it work) yet they didn't design it like a typical tabbed window...

I guess I just need to try it, and if it breaks I know I messed up. That is how we all started ehh?

Post a new thread in the developer discussion forum and I'll reply to it, that way everyone has the information.
