Yeah i get what you mean, but that is a lot of locations, and what if it is a narrow walkway, and you don't want to jump down... That brings a lot of little factors into play. Because starcraft locations are square-format, and they can only be as small as 1x1, the accuracy and precision of the game is limited. In Zelda, you only jump if you are running, and you get right on the edge of a 'cliff'. Since starcraft can't detect when you are running or not, this can never be exactly replicated...(though it can be improvised and mimiced(Past-tense of mimic)).

Such as, when you user wants to jump, user need only to move next to a 'cliff', and move a unit labeled "JUMP TIMER" onto a beacon named "JUMP".

This method works great, but it is a hassle to keep track of so many different units.(this could include 10 or more if everything like swimming and riding a horse, and any other form of movement followed this same system.) Also, you have an inventory(one unit for every item), c-buttons(one unit for every loaded c-button), and link.

So, in essence, the closer you try and get to 'actual gameplay', the farther you are from it. Because in the actual game you only control one unit and every thing is done for you, where as, in mimiced(" ") play, you trade off for either one unit or gameplay relativity. This is where i need to decide what is really important, and what can be thrown out(such as the blocks in kokiri and other minor details).

Anyway, i've rambled on for long enough... Something useful. Decided to do multiple maps as follows;

Map #1: Intro-Beginning-Deku Tree-*anything else before Hyrule field*
(smallest map)

Map #2: Hyrule field-lon lon Ranch-*surrounding villages*
(Largest Map)

Map #3: Temples(in order)-*Others*

Map #4: Ganon's Castle(there is a ganons castle right?)



There you have it. biggrin.gif

Until next time.

People will post if you work on it. And if you don't then your like 80 other people on this fourm. Map making isn't a popularity contest, if you haven't made anything good no one is going to post.

Impossible to put it all in one map! so you would have to make different maps on each dungeon and everything else....

Alright, but i've kinda lost my intensity since i haven't been working on it for like 5 weeks... I think I already forgot the trigger system i was using, so im going to have to look through the triggers to remember... Oh well, you have to start somewhere...

It's true... I owe you one... Maybe I'll send you a copy of the map early so you can test it for me smile.gif .(if you don't wanna i guess its cool mellow.gif )

I just found this really cool website that has really good maps of all of the oot areas so that's going to speed up production significantly(then i dont have to whip out my zelda and find the spot every time i need to know what something looks like biggrin.gif )

Thanks for the thanks =D, Yeh i would love to test once a significant work on the map has been done, I dont have to worry about any maps or loading up my gamecube to play it! i am a OOT freak and i can name you 90/100 skulltalas, how to find most of the items, the only thing i get fked on is the DAM WATER TEMPLE!!!! AARGH I HATE THAT FKING PLACE! but shadow link was cool =D, i can name you the fastest way across hylia field without epona, easyest way to get all 10 Po's!

Can i ask a question/Poll?

Who is your Favourite boss from thease games? OOT, Majoras Mask or Windwaker? Mine is a toss up between Phantom Gannon, Gannondor+Gannon, Shadow link, Witch sisters or Bongo Bongo!

Iv never bothered to get a overall but i will say its Bongo Bongo or Witch Sisters!

I dont really have a favorite boss...

But i'm going to counter your poll with another poll that is going to go into the game:

What unit should link be with each sword?

A: kokiri=zealot, masters=zealot(hero), goron=dt(visable to enemies)

B: kokiri=zealot, masters=dt(""), goron=dt(hero)

C: All Zealot

D: All DTs

First five votes chose the sequence so hurry and VOTE.
