Is this map in the Game

from Elemental Forums

Is this map an option in the game, if not game you please add it in the next patch.  I would even like the default starting locations to be an option

The Map of Elemental is not in the current build, as it is larger then a Large map, I am hoping to update it to FE standards and get it out in a future build or DLC, 4 or the stock maps are derived from the world map however.  The Eastern Continent is the large map, Curgen's Domain. The Tiny Scarps' Veil, is the area Altar is founded, The Small Karrazan's Fist is the area that is the home to Kraxis, and Yithril, the medium map The Bay of Capacea is a the center slice of the world map, containing the homelands of Capitar, Gilden, Tarth, Resoln, Kraxis and, Yithril.

The nice thing about braking them up is that they can all be more detailed then the full map which had to be forced down in scale to fit.

I would like this map as well. I'm under the impression that Stardock could release this map as part of some DLC for the 64-bit users as was discussed in past threads. The world of Elemental itself is just so large.. I wonder how a fully loaded world of that size would actually run... And considering the scale, I imagine that the AI would display some interesting behavior on that level.

Anyway.. Frogboy, if you are reading this.. If this map is possible for you to put out there for us to play on.. Give us a sign! :pout:

However, if it is too large to be plausible.. A sign :typo:   would still be appreciated.

 

[Edit]

Seems an answer was already given prior to my message being posted. Either way, it appears as if the map may be doable. In the future.

Would love to play on this in full map with Extra large size if possible. Otherwise a large version would be nice as well.

The 2 missing factions can be easely created.

I'm not sure if remember this correctly or not, but I thought Brad had talked about needing Intel to release a pure 64 bit version of something or another that would allow FE to get bigger maps.

Hell I may be remembering something from way back in E:WoM though, so don't quote me on that!

  I saw the smaller continents in the game and hoped I was just missing the complete map.

I would love to play an Extra Large map with all ten Sovereigns.  That would be fantastic.  Thanks for the update.
