Map design - How can i create user (community) map?

Post by Stratego (dev) »

Here in the Age Of Fantasy variant you can also design your own map.

Currently we many units, here is the starter pack.

I do not write here too much, read the AOS mapdesign learning "kit" (http://ageofstrategy.net/viewtopic.php?f=17&t=2) the same applies here, except the different starter pack (this includes the undead/opc etc. races)

SPECIALITIES:
- animals: they must be placed onto units layer
- some "emerging" terrain objects (like bid stone, stone statue): they must be placed on the units layer (and naturally: you can see them in the units tileset)


and these are also links to other knowledges of making maps:

and here is attached the starter pack.

(Starter pack updated: 2015.02.28)

Can you make terrain objects with the previous map pack?
