Warzone 2100 Forums

Where are some new maps/ map makers? Absolutely nothing happend. New maps are the most important thing in the forum. IMO. So-I will take some time, to create 3-4 new maps in clas. style.
Would be nice to know, what kind of maps are needed (how many players). New ideas are welcome.
Attention: I will NOT make flat high oil NTW Maps. Never.


PS: I am now for many years here in the forum. Can someone tell me, what this NTW is standing for?

Not sure if you're serious about this or not . NTW = New Team War. NTW epitomizes the notion of a flat map with all of the oil in your base. NTW refers to the NTW map but also generally refers to any flat map with 30+ oils in your base.

The original Teamwar map was made in 2000 by WCS_Armageddon and was 30 oils. New Teamwar didn't come for many years later, sometime after 2004 I think and the only difference is that it was 40 oils and added terrain dividers (walls) in between the bases. I think 8 generators was max in 1.10 unless a map started off with more. I don't know who made NTW, I think it may have been Delphinio?

look at 3 and 4 person chess board for inspiration... also I didn't know what NTW was. Not That Way? Never Trust Water.

Teamwar had 20 oils per base, was smaler than NTW and had a few "Mountains" on it.
NTW was completely flat with 30 oils per base, coz 30 was max in v1.10 (not 8 power gen.). It was built by LPC_Actinia!
NTW v2 ist my map with still 30 oils. I built it in 2007 and still for v1.10.
But it wasn't completely flat anymore rather it had this form:
II‾‾‾‾I‾‾‾‾I‾‾‾‾I‾‾‾‾II
II___________II
\\__________///
\\\_________///
III_________III
III_________III
///_________\\\
//__________\\\
II___________II
I__I___I___I__II
Some map pirates toke my map and made 40 oil versions of it.
The most known version is possibly "NTWMax2" ...

Still get errors trying to load up my maps. It says it has notified an admin of the issue, but I haven't taken it any further.

Why are you posting that here?
What are you doing exactly?

I love this game, and would love to make new maps. I have two issues, though. My computer(which can't run any mapmaking stuff) and time(self-explanatory). Sometime in the future, I plan on making maps though.
