ESOC Maps Information Thread

[deleted_user]

Wow guys these are some beautiful maps. Well done! Love the places used and emphasis on capturing them in an oe maps. Only one I don't know I'm sure about is the Adirondack being from near there. What does the crescent represent the st Lawrence? Main question is how do I download them all? Is there a conclusive maps pack download? And can they be played on regular eso? Might be easier to fill games. If not you just convinced me to start playing FP with these gorgeous maps

maps.php

There's a download link on that page, that's not a download link itself.

AFAIK that download is for UI 2.2 maps only. UI 2.2 maps can be played on RE, but only in ffa mode and with a computer in slot 3.

ESOC maps, without the UI, come with the patch. These can also be played on RE but they are custom maps so all games on them will be unrated.

Sorry I haven't kept up with all the jargon. What does EP and RE mean? I know fp is fanpatch

RE is Robot entertainment patch or the last official patch, EP is esoc patch

ESOC Patch (EP) is a fanpatch. It's not the fanpatch of circa 2010, it's its successor. It was made by all sorts of egotistical and skilled and smart players who discussed things to incredible ends and, buy and large, it's pretty balanced for 1v1 and much more balanced than RE.

Robot Entertainment (RE) is the last studio to work on AoE3 from a balance perspective. It is the last official balance update and is still in use today. The default version of the game, the game launched from steam, runs the Robot Entertainment patch. It is RE.

Download and install the ESOC Patch and you will get these maps available to play as custom maps on the regular RE patch as well.

Can figure that out with the spreadsheet by just using ctrl-f. Few maps are missing tho.

Hey, yes, the map installer does not modify your game, it only puts all the maps into your custom map folder. They can then be played on the regular game version.
