Now these can be in the map to make it more authentic and a few more maps can even be made.

I see you resolved the "N" problem.

The map I was thinking of would be a carbon copy of AOE 2's Black forest. There would be two small irregularly shaped clearings in dense trees on either side with a single small choke in the middle in 1v1. In team, each team would be connected together, and there would be 1 passage through to the other team.
The map would have okay hunt, two medium herds of deer in each player's clearing, as well as 3 silver mines. The only other resources outside of each player's clearings would be the trees, of course. Each player would start with 1 extra wood and gold crate. There would only a few beaver treasures around the map, and other else. The trees should be fairly dense, being difficult for a unit to walk through. I would imagine that this map would use the Carolina Tile Set.
The size of a clearing would be a good size, being able to fit a moderately sized base. If you have any questions feel free to ask!
How do I make a map work on vanilla? Is there something like initializing tad civs that doesn't allow it in your RM1 folder? I will do that stuff at some point.
tilanus wrote:Hey Durokan, I have a question regarding the use of these neat maps you're doing. Can I use them in my mod? I'd take care of crediting you and the person with the idea. I'd most likely do heavy terrain and native modifications anyway (which would consequently also result in a renaming of the map).
You can change them as much as you want as well. As far as the .xml goes it doesn't have to be exactly what I put, just make it reasonable. Durokan wrote:AoE3 Acropolis. This map supports 1v1-4v4 + all amounts of players in FFA.

I have got an idea for another map.
-Do you make more maps per person or only 1 map per person?

this is only for 1vs1, i guess?

Yeah, it doesnt say it in the map download space but the link to it from the navigation bar does mention that it is 1v1 obs only.
Also what is your next idea?

I was thinking about a map in which hunts and mines will be close to the TC.
-I am still not sure if tp on the middle map is better or native posts.
-The map is going to feature defending advantage over rush civs who have lame rush (russia, otto, sioux, aztec).
So, i have few questions about some possibilities which only this map will feature compared to other maps:
1. Is it possible to remove the wall from being builded in that specific map only?
2. Is it possible to put fully fattened sheeps/goats on the map as in the scenario editor?
3. Can you make the map to have the same age II mercs everytime it spawns? (some maps spawn with the same mercs i think)..

-Also, is it possible players to start with more buildings from the start (except being able to start with saloon, market, plantantions, livestock pen)..Is it possible the game to start with built native post/trade post for both sides?

Kind of, I actually did a UV unwrap and just made it very small below the N, it's going to be all blue anyway. The problem still exists for other images and it's a big problem trying to figure out what hidden parts are in an image and which ones don't have it.

Hey, your maps now work on vanilla. Will upload both tad and nilla versions for black forest as soon as you get back to me about the hunts.
"green pass Nilla" has been added to the original link for green mountain pass in addition to the tad version.
Here are some screenshots of the maps in nilla
