AgamemnonPhlemnon Posted July 27, 2017 Report Share Posted July 27, 2017 Hey, I quite enjoy making maps for this game but I'm still quite an amateur and while this page was quite useful for learning, it appears to not include some features of the editor which I assume are newer. Anyone know of a place where I can find more up to date information? or even just a general map making guide/tutorial, not even necessarily for 0.A.D. One other thing I'm not sure of, how do you add a map preview image to a map? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not implemented yet, but I want to. Currently you need to edit mapname.xml. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mostly on wiki, but it's not very big. Also you could ask here, on the forum. 2 minutes ago, AgamemnonPhlemnon said: Hey, I quite enjoy making maps for this game but I'm still quite an amateur and while this page was quite useful for learning, it appears to not include some features of the editor which I assume are newer.

AgamemnonPhlemnon Posted July 27, 2017 Author Report Share Posted July 27, 2017 Thanks for the reply. 40 minutes ago, vladislavbelov said: Which features are not included? Ah well if that's not implemented yet then that will be why the information looked outdated. I will ask on here the next time I come across something I need help with then, cheers!

AgamemnonPhlemnon Posted July 27, 2017 Author Report Share Posted July 27, 2017 (edited) Thought of something already... haha. Is there any guides to making textures blend in more with each other and stuff like that? Before I made an account on these forums I could've swore I saw a topic all about it in this part of the forums but I scrolled through and can't find it again unfortunately. It was quite a while ago so maybe I'm not remembering it right. (Do bridges work?) Edited July 27, 2017 by AgamemnonPhlemnon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But @sanderd17 has some patches about terrain modificators, which could allow less hacky bridges.
