Sounds like a great Idea, but I'm not one of the people can answer that.

Wait for quib's answer, but I'd say be sure to include some screenshots Hope your site can handle the load (not that its not very popular already.)

something like this... then when maps.eq2interface.com is finished I can add a link to that.
Quote:
EQ2Interface.com would like to announce a project many of our top members have been working on as a team. This project is named Everquest II Modular Atlas Project (EQ2MAP) and will bring new life to your map window.
Features:- Added player made maps for Sunken City, The Graveyard, The Sprawl, The Ruins, The Thieves' Way, Serpent Sewer, Oakmyst Forest, The Forest Ruins, The Caves, The Peat Bog, The Down Below, Vermin's Snye, Crow's Resting Place, Qeynos Tradeskill Area, Blackburrow, Ruins of Varsoon, Stormhold (floors 1 and 2), The Wailing Caves and more to come.
- Point of Interest overlays for Antonica, Thundering Steppes and The Commonlands and a expanding database of more.
- Minimize button to shrink the map up to just a titlebar.
- Escape no longer closes the map window. Use the map hotkey or the close button (on the titlebar) to close it.
- And more…
This modification is available to all eq2interface.com members and you can find more information about this interface here. Add the locations that you think are helpful to you and others by helping fill a new Points of Interest database for this project.
You can also browse our entire downloads section with modifications from more then 60 authors creating over 25 complete interfaces and 150 seperate interface pieces to make your own.

Its really not that expensive.
Back on topic... Do you think it would be helpful if I made a forum for EQ2MAP instead of just 1 700 post thread?

A forum on the maps.eq2interface.com would be great
and a devs only thread would be cool too.
If you do end up doing that i suggest locking this thread
I suggest making more of a point on the maps. Maybe even listing em all. I say this because it sounds like all we did is the newbie zones. Higher lvl people just wont care.
I have plans on doing Nektulos castle as soon as possible, and Condemned Catacombs soon after.
I dunno....i just dont want to have the higher lvl dudes wave it away

edited, hows that?
OT: I'm working on adding project groups to the site and each project would get a forum and a dedicated download section and possibly a subdomain webpage. In the usercp scroll down to Group Memberships and you can see I'm starting to work on it (the project leader can approve/deny people to joining their project). Then I would have some type of application process to start a project here. This would be for mods that many people are helping with.

Wow, a lot has come up while I was away this morning. I want to get a new map screenshot (probably of one Tony made) and am adding diztorded to the core project team; they've contributed quite a bit. Am rewriting some of the readme file and getting everything together for another official release later today.
A post at that place sounds like it would be great advertisement for our little project we have going here.

just to let you guys know, im planning on modifying my zonrect calculator to *hopefully* be able to take a direct copy and paste from the wonderful POI page from maps.eq2interface, plus the zonerect and then use it to generate the xml. It will most likely be this weekend because my week is gonna be pretty busy, and i haven't done any kind of thing like this before with vb.net so it will be a learning process for me at the same time

Eeeee! That'd make things so easy!
Keeping my fingers crossed that all goes well. Part of why I'm redoing the acknowledgements section of the readme, is this project has gotten to the point where it's important that everyone get the credit due. Your zonerect calculator has been extremely helpful, yet you get a simple one liner two lines below SoulPl.
Attaching the new readme and project file for people to review and make sure they're accurate. If you think you've been left out unfairly, leave a post here or PM me.

now that there is a whole forum for this it will be possible to split the thread up into more than one. make it easier to find exactly what you are looking for whoever thought to make this into a whole forum had a good idea.

I think that no specific names should be listed. Of course, this is up to everyone else, but that wording might step on some toes
How about this instead:

Wow, Eloa. You did a bang-up job, regardless of whether you knew PHP or not - I'm impressed greatly.

Only saw a couple of issues, and yes Eola did a great job.
Issue 1:
Under the About EQ2MAP heading on the menu,
the link called xxWhat is it?
Returns the following error:
Warning: main(aboutqm.php): failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /index.php on line 58
Warning: main(): Failed opening 'aboutqm.php' for inclusion (include_path='.:/usr/lib/php:/usr/local/lib/php') in /index.php on line 58
Issue 2:
Under the Submit Information heading on the menu,
the link called xxQuests
Returns the following error:
Warning: main(submitquest.php): failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /index.php on line 58
Warning: main(): Failed opening 'submitquest.php' for inclusion (include_path='.:/usr/lib/php:/usr/local/lib/php') in /index.php on line 58
Issue 3:
Under the Browse Information heading on the menu,
the link called xxQuests
Returns the following error:
Warning: main(viewquests.php): failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /index.php on line 58
Warning: main(): Failed opening 'viewquests.php' for inclusion (include_path='.:/usr/lib/php:/usr/local/lib/php') in /index.php on line 58
Maybe I missed something on the Main Page Readme stating that those options did not work yet. But just incase I wanted to let ya know.l

Tony, what map are you most proud of? I'm trying to figure out which map to have showing in our basic screenshot. I've taken Zonx's reworking of your Varsoon maps and done my own work on them and they might be good for today's release if you approve of them. Attaching them to this post for your approval.
