Cartographer

JMarks · June 29, 2002, 23:16

Hey, just wondering, does anyone need a cartographer? I can work on smaller maps so you can get a quicker overview, especially when the known world grows outside the boundary of the zoomed out screen. Also, I can put production, commerce and other levels so you can visually see off the bat what city can do what. If you want to see my past work, see:

The two latest maps I made based on Grothgar's Europe map. And...

Best thing is I work for banannas!

Your work is excellent.

We have a high priest, so why not welcome a cartographer?

Not much of a challenge to draw maps of a flat world though is it?

Just remember. The banana is the centre of Apolyton. Apolyton is the centre of the world, and the world is the centre of the universe. Ptolemy has told me so.

hrm, that game actually looks interesting

i hope many a civ3 game turn out like that.

Welcome

Do you want a site section?

However, our high priest isn't a member of the forum... I don't think The Banana ever registered

I like the cartographer idea. Can you make ancient-looking maps?

No, the cartographer is supposed to create old-looking maps to add to the "flavor" of the game.

JMarks · June 30, 2002, 21:38

I can try to make it old looking.

However, I just realized I probably won't be able to get to this project untill after the 15th of July.

I'll experiment before hand though.

So what type of maps do you guys want?

Political, Geographic (all jungles.

), city resource, city buildings, military, other?

Inverse Icarus · June 30, 2002, 22:10

i'd like to see culture borders / military / population.

take your time though, im fairly sure we can deal with what we have for a while

Kuciwalker · July 1, 2002, 12:48

*move to top*

I'd like to see (again) oldish maps that nevertheless contain some geographical, military, and political information. It could sort of have little guys on it, etc.

Panag - this is a volunteer thing, it's not his job. If he wants to, he will, if he doesn't, he won't.

He makes old style maps, then when we get to printing, they look the same cept white not brown and no chawd ends! Then when we have satelites we have perfect maps!
