I started work on a "Migration" map, where players start on a small island in the ocean, and must migrate to the nearby landmass or they'll run out of resources. I've already roughed out the map, now it's your turn to fill it up! Below is a shot of the map, with colored "territories." I will assign territories to whoever wants to take part. All you have to do to sign up, is say you want to right here in this thread, and what color territory you would like (I've assigned the islands to myself). The only rules are please be mindful of good design practices and try to use temperate biome assets (for instance, no palm trees or walruses). You must also have access to the SVN version of the game so we are all updated with the latest game files. When the grids are all assigned, I will send the map to the first designer. He/she gets 2 days to fill in their territory, then send it back to me. Then I will send the map to the next designer and so on. If you don't send it back to me in 2 days, I'll just fill in your territory myself and send it to the next one on the list!

So, who's game?! The finished map will ship with Alpha 7 with all of the designers being given credit in the map description.

2 days are awfully short, but I think I'll give it a try. I think i'd like to do the yellow part of the map.

This is what biome? Mediterranean, temperate, steppe ... ?

Try to use temperate biome assets (for instance, no palm trees or walruses).

Ah, reading carefully indeed is an art.

So ... I'll have plenty of time today to do this, but it looks quite bleak next week. If you could send me the map today, I could get something done right away.

There ya go m8!

There seem to be some textures missing. The map currently looks like this and I get errors "Can't find texture x". I have the recent public SVN version of the game. (updated 2 mins ago)

[Mythos_Ruler]

Sorry, those are the colors. Update SVN.

Maybe some gravel under the mines to make them stand out? I may make a decal for that express purpose.

I actually did that, but I guess it's not visible.

Should be better now:

[Mythos_Ruler]

Nice work man! Let's try not to use that "temp highlands" terrain until I update it with a better texture. Right now it looks like ground beef and oregano.

Um I would like to try and prove my self with my scenario making skills if thats ok with you. May I try? And if yes um my questions are which color and what biome do you want exactly?

[Mythos_Ruler]

The biome for the map is Temperate (oak, beech, and pine trees). You can choose whichever colors you want. The problem is SMST is on vacation and didn't send me the map back with his edits. lol. Perhaps I could have come up with a better way to do this.

Yay I get to try and well that's good because I can wait for the files and that'll help a lot with me trying to work on a basis of an idea while SMST is on vacation. I would also like to use this opportunity to add to my application if possible when I am finished with whatever color or colors (maybe two?) I do. Thank you Mythos and Pureon

[NOXAS1]

Oh on ubuntu where do maps save and where should I put this one? Also I think I found the file but it's in a zip file...but idk it's on share/games/0ad/mods/public and then it's just a zipfile that says public on it

Sorry, everyone. Here is the current version of the map. (yellow section done) I'd really like to do more, but I will be kind of preoccupied the next few months.

Feel free to add or remove stuff from my section, if you want. I really don't think it is complete, so you can complete it.
