Confusion about maps.
Alright mates...
I've read around and I think my head is about to explode, or implode. one of those. If I missed a faq or sticky, please point me in the right direction, otherwise I have *cough cough* a few questions please. I am still attempting to get Runuo running on my vista, so I can not try this out at this time to confirm.
1. Any custom map must be the same size, and the same file type (map0, mul0) as an existing map. Be it a custom map of tram / fel, or malas, correct?
2. isn't fel a facet of tram? I read they use different maps now...How the blazes does that work? Can you now have different tram / fel maps, with different facets of each??
3. When creating an aditional facet of a map. it uses the exising map files, just with a different name and season? (No additional files?)
So if #3 is correct, My head ex/im - plodes....
What the heck stays the same and what changes. I hear people talking of the possibilities of using facets for more varitey. But isn't everything the same? once you freeze something on one facet of the map, it is going to be on all of them right? houses / spawners / items of interest, they'd all go into the same file for that map. Maybe I overlooked the obvious, and sound like an idiot (imploding heads do that), Been a few years since I ran a server (and jsut started playing again)....please be gentle.
edit: Just before i posted I thought If fel and tram were facets of the same map, houses do not get copied. Man I feel like a noob again.
