Official Mapping Community Requests

[psteverific 8]

Just checking in to see if Bermuda is still under consideration... glad to see it on the list.
And I agree that Saskatoon would be a good addition to your real world collection... I know I'd download it.

I've got a request for the mapp squad.  I don't imagine that this would be tough in the least to create, but I haven't the slightest how to create maps, and I figure if we've got a map squad, why not use them?!

My request is for a fictional map that is about half the size of the normal regional maps (because I've got a pretty slow computer) that has various islands of small, medium, and large sizes, with some tall mountains, but also (probably near the coastlines) plenty of area to build my cities.  Also, if you could make the region with all small and medium cities, that would be great, because my comp can't handle anything larger than a medium sized city.

 

Thanks alot, and someone could PM me (jglei701) and let me know about this request (or if you have any questions).

 

Thanks again!!

Are you going to release all of the above regions in an international mappack? Just curious...

[RadioheadFan 1]

Just wanted to stop by...

Mallow, you deserve a round of applause. You're taking the requests when nobody else will, and you can't believe how much I appreciate that. It's amazing, your dedication and will power. Keep on going, you continue to amaze me.

I'll get to it eventually.

I'm really stacked up right now and these international ones are much tougher to get info for...

[the_new_simman 5]

Mallow, you must be one of the most deticated request takers in a long time. I have to think of a way to reward good map squad members...

I think I can put my fun one on hold and do you fictional map jglei701. I'm sure I can find time since this is the first time in ages where I am not bogged down with schoolwork!

[jglei701 8]

Thanks Mr. V... I would appreciate that alot!

[lakeyboy 12]

Mallow, I am amazed you are taking 17 requests including 2 from me. You are absoultley brillant. Many thanks from me and everyone else I will assume. I think you should get a award even if it's a 2005 trixie for most dedicated map maker.

I haven't been on simtrop in a few months, I come back and mind a whole organized mapp squad!! Amazing!

I saw Gold Beach, OR up there somewhere - would it be possible to do Coos Bay, OR?

Seeing as I live in Portland, I'd be happy to do Coos Bay .

But, I have to finish these international maps first... I've been taking a break from map making for a little bit so I could summon up the stamina to finish all these requests... and I think I'll begin today.

For those of you still waiting for international maps, I'm sorry I haven't done them yet. They will probably be released on Thursday or Friday.

What about a accurate scale map of the Philadelphia Metro Area?

[steveg 0]

No takers on Saskatoon, Saskatchewan?   

[DJGspinNhitz 7]

I have a request I would like a map of the area between Lehighton, PA and Allentown, PA all large map squares (I hate small ones) if possible include east to the Deleware River NJ/PA and West to Kutztown Area. This mainly composes the LEhigh Valley but I want the Kittatiny Ridge and the Lehigh RIver in the region. Thanks G

[ExiL3 10]

Would It be possible to get a accurate map of Oslo, Norway??? Would love to have it!

Thank you in advance.

Hi,

Recently I found the beautiful Antwerp Cathedral on the STEX. Since I live in Antwerp, the request is obviously: could you make an accurately scaled map of the Antwerp region?

 

Antwerp, Belgium is located near a large river, the Schelde, and it has lots of big docks. Actually, it's the second largest harbour in Europe (after Rotterdam). So the map would probably look a little bit like the maps of Rotterdam or Hamburg, which are already available, I noticed. The terrain is almost completely flat, so that shouldn't be too difficult.

 

Since I noticed that it's difficult to get accurate topographic information on non-American cities, I located the Belgian Geographic institute. Their website is http://www.ngi.be (in Dutch and in French). I don't know if any of the mapping tools on that page are any help, anyway, I could help you with the language if that is a problem.

 

Probably, there should be other maps on the Internet somewhere, but I don't know where. I could take a look, though.

 

Hope someone takes up the request, you're doing great work!

 

[Klemvast 0]

Anybody interested? Or are you too busy with the other maps (no problem, in that case, just want to know...)?

 

[Pepster 1]

i have been experiencing issues when i try to generate some maps (Boston and Ottawa), the jpg image isn't recognized propertly, and don't respond when i select the image which should create the map, this is very disapointing as the 2 maps i liked more, are unable to be recreated in my pc, what can i do?, any one else experienced such issue?

[leejj88 0]

You might need to use the Landscape Designer to change it into the proper format. That should solve your problem.

Yep, as leejj said.

However, next time please post questions like these in a different thread.

As for the requests... well... I don't like admitting this, but...


I have had Real Life Syndrome recently. This is why I haven't been doing much here. I think I'm still recovering, so please be a bit patient.

Thats fine. It gets to all of us at some point. Anyway, the more time taken, the better the quality. So take your time and don't rush them. But please keep us informed. I hate being left hanging.

What about an accurate scale map of CALGARY, ALBERTA in CANADA? Please if someone do it, it should be a big one because I think that most Mapp Squad Maps are too small for me!
