Unknown Map Fixed

Post by Rikikipu »

Hey guys, i have fixed some points of Unknown map.
I think it's really cool to have a map which change every game, and which is more playable than others map on this patch (hunts/mines).
Feedbacks are welcomed :)


How can I install the map ?


Here is the map :
http://aoe3.heavengames.com/downloads/s ... ileid=3727

1)Download the file
2)Unzip it
3)Copy the two files : "Unknown V2,6.xml" &' "Unknown V2,6.xms"
4) Go to your Age of Empires 3 map folder : it should be : C:My DocumentsMy gamesAge of Empires 3RM3
5) Paste the two files



These are some points that i have fixed :

- Hunts : There is as much hunts as great plains. A second hunt near your TC is coded.
- Mines : Same as food. As much gold mines as great plains. 2 starting mines+1 other mine not to far from your TC
-Water : Water has less fish/whale (in the original one, there were 8 whales for 1v1 (rofl)). Kind of map like "Hispaniola" have been removed. For "Great Lakes maps", lake is smaller.
- TP : Maximum three different native TPs avalaible (5 was too much and broken). TP asian added. You can have such intersting combos i think.
- Size : Approximatly same size as Great Plains.
- Treasure : Starting treasures added.
- Maps : California texture added. I removed "circle maps" that don't allow you to go through the middle of the map.

Enjoy it !

I tried , I still found some problems:

Hunts tend to spawn on the edge of the map (and sometimes 1 TC), leaving empty big chunks of the map
Sometimes 2 mines spawn together
Maybe you did on purpose, but the number of animals can be too high or too low in some of the hunts

But I think the idea is good in general, those maps can be the ''new standard maps''

Yeah, I agree with all that you have said.
I need to fix it, but it may be hard. Could be cool if an RMS expert could advice me.

I don't know why hunts tend to spawn on the edge of the map.
Fixing that awkward 2 gold mines spawn will not be hard i guess.
The number of animals is exactly the same as great plains, there is are between 12 and 16 animals in every hunt. The issue is that if a tree spawn where the hunt is, animals dissapear.... haha, now you understand why on great plains you can have hunts of 2 deers. This is because a spawn issue of two elements. This thing will be hard to fix I think.

Thank you for feedbacks ! :)

I fixed these bugs you told me. Just only remains the tc spawn bug which appears 1 game over 40 I would say.
I edit my first post and send a new link for the new version. Enjoy it !

Thank you so much for this improved version of the Unknown map. It is soooooo much better than the left-unfinished original unknown map. Great job! :smile:

Did you manage to solve the spawn issue?

Thanks, I haven't worked again on it, so no :p If i remember well, it was because of the trade route, sometimes the tc couldn't spawn because there was the trade route too much close to it.

Would you still suggest to play this map? I like the concept of it a lot, perhaps even for a tournament.

Yes I really suggest to play this map. It's really refreshing and even funnier for team games. Note that this post was before the eso patch, so you don't even need to download the map anymore. The Esoc Patch already uses this map as the defaul unknown map
