Title: Map - Long Way Ahead
Post by: andy_5995 on 14 January 2016, 21:56:28
I created a map. This is Long Way Ahead v1.0.

I read the instructions for going to photomode with F8, but that didn't work very well with my map because of it's proportion.
It's 512x32.

This is a screenshot from the map editor.

If anyone is interested in this map and would like to make edits to it, I am good with that.

This is my first MG map, so I'm sure there will be changes to it.

I see a problem with this map related to the dimensions. I'll most likely be redoing this map from scratch, and make it 256x32 instead of 512x32.

Other suggestions for improvements?

Titi (https://forum.megaglest.org/index.php?action=profile;u=1463) made revisions to this map. Thanks!

A small part is cut off in the screenshot.

Count me in. Maybe we should play with your clash of civs mod (https://forum.megaglest.org/index.php?topic=9758.0). Does it need more testing? I still have it installed on my server.
