The entire reason for duplicating the SoA map in ToB was to allow some modder to do just that. While doing this in raw format might prove marginally useful--the real possibility is to make some new, high-level quests in the old digs. After all, it is the ToB side of the game that needs the most help IMO.

Beside 50% of incorrect travelling times I found some small bug.

When you travel from AR7500 (zombies quest northern area) to AR7900 (BG bridge) the party appear at the very bottom of the map that is not correct IMHO. It would be more logically to enter the area from the northern edge...There's something with entries/exits....

Go blame Bardez or Horred or whomever made them up I'll write a proggy to fix em up one day, but not 'soon'

Go ahead and blame me--everybody else does!

Or, blame Bardez--he's not around to defend himself!

You're right... it's probably me who's to blame

It's been so long, who can really say? BTW--welcome back, prodigal son.
Glad to keep the mod alive--I told you they'd like it, back when I was building this version.
Who would've ever thought, back then, that people like Sir Billy Bob (and now others!) would be modding for it. I think that's one of the highest compliments for our hard work; wouldn't you agree?

Hey, I do not want to blame anybody Was just getting tired of people requesting me to fix all those travel times that have been that way for sooo long...

But nice to see you back Bardez, hope you like the evolution of BGT

Thanks for the welcome back, guys. I haven't yet had a chance to snoop around and see what all has cropped up so far, but your words intrigue me... methinks I might just HAVE to snoop soon enough.

In the mean time, I'll just have to keep working on my "smaller install package" project

[King Diamond]

So.... still... what about the travel times?

Not anytime soon - toying around with 3D graphics tools at the moment and that is just so much more fun

Hi folks,

A very small update (3b) is now up on IEGMC and soon on Dragons Hoard.

Changes:
- added compatibility for upcoming BGT-WeiDU 0.99
- upgraded installer to WeiDU 184
- fixed entry point when travelling from AR7500 (Zomkbie Quest) to AR7900 (BG Bridge), party entered to the south while it should enter to the south, thanks to KingDiamon for pointing this out
- fixed the link between Garrotten and Garrotten Castle (Bonehill) that caused players problems to reach the castle

Have fun!

Yacomo

Hi Weigo,

First, I am terribly sorry for replying late, but I am currently extremely busy with my job and other non BG-related issues

Of course you have my blessings, go ahead and do with the mod whatever you want

All the best,

Unfortunately the piccies were gone for good with the transition from Frogotten Wars to Spellhold Studios, so no not at the moment And they won't come back here since for some strange reason I cannot post any attachments here anymore

One day when I have my own web-site however...

One note: If you just want to have a quick look, you can install it over a plain SoA install

[melkor_morgoth75]

As soon as i can install BP+BGT+mods ... i'll install the map too. I guess it's pretty cool and it's compatible with CtB, SBH, DSotSC, correct?

The problem now is to catch the last file for the installation of the BIG one ...

Yes, in fact the wmp-file in the mod IS the map-file that evolved over the years to integrate the various mods thanks to several modders. I just updated the graphics and added a couple of bug-fixes as well as some other more or less fancy features
