Hey there mallowthecloud

This should maybe be in the request thread, but I need to ask you personally:

you know that Oslo map you made once? I was wondering if you could maybe expand it another two rows of large tiles to the east?

I understand it if you wont, but thanks if you do!

Regards,
Simen.

MallowTheCloud,

        I right this to you as I think you may have not gotten my pm. I'm not sure if this is the right place to make a request or not, but I will do it anyway. I would be absoloutly delighted if you could make a map of New York State. I would like to have all the rivers, lakes (Great lakes too), the mountain ranges, and of course, New York City. It dosn't have to be completly accuratly, but very close please. The New York City area dosn't need to be scaled accuatly but pretty close. Also please include long island. I hope this dosn't seem that bossy/mean/not in the right place . If you are interested please pm me, well, pm me even if you say no!

Your adoring fan,

jrhnemo A.K.A Jason H.

Yeah, this should probably go in the request thread... or since it's a personal request, a PM would probably have been best. But that's okay.

I can probably make the Oslo map larger for you.

[Simen 1]

well, thank you, and I didnt think about PMing, sorry.

but EEEP!!! Ihope you havent started on it, because I meant two rows of large tiles to the WEST, not east...anyways, hope its not too late, but thanks for making it!

[jacqulina 162]

i think your maps are fantastic

[artforce1 5]

Hey, I downloaded one of your maps and when I tried to play it in the game, i got a big flat piece of land.  I downloaded your .dat files, but where do i put them.  In the SC4 plugins folder in my documents or in the program files----> maxis?

 

Or a better question is, is there a tutorial on how to get maps downloaded of the STEX into the game?

 

Ok, I figured out how to get the map in there.  Except there is no snow.  I mean, the map is PERFECT, but how come I didnt get any snow

Thanks for everybody's comments!

The snow is from a snow mod... you can find it at:

I hope this helps.

ok mallow, we have gone over this before and all but i cant render one of your maps, yet again. although we got new york up and running, i tried to las vegas tonight to no avail. i have the 1500m.dat in my c;/programs/simcity/plugins folder (replacing the older 250m.dat) and the .jpeg in the c:/my documents/simcity/regions/las vegas folder. not like that matters where the jpeg goes but for future refrence i keep it in with the region folder. i tried to render the map with the 1500m.dat in the c:/programs side and got the usual eror region too big. so i tried the c:/my documents and got the same thing. the .bmp is on in the c:/my documents/regions/las vegas folder where it should be. me and u figured out i had 2 paths for the game. i use the c:/my documents side now for everything now. i just cant remember how we did it or if maybe i did something wrong. let me know pls keep up the great work on the stex

[dadyrghluv 8]

ok mallow i got the map to work, and also figured out why. i geuss it seems that when u download the config.bmp file it renames itself with a 1. mine was config1.bmp. this is the second time that has happened with ur maps. so i figure its a normal thing with them, so i would clarify to the masses that it is config.bmp and not config1.bmp for future referance. thanx again for the help on new york.

Yeah... I have no idea why it does that. I name them config.bmp and for some reason when I upload them, it changes the name to config1.bmp...

Sorry about the confusion. I'm glad you got it to work.

[dadyrghluv 8]

thanx mallow, the map is great, i'm going to do my first cj with it. ill include a spot for credit with the map obviously. im trying to do a life like as possible. although im not sure it will be to scale considering the limitations sc4 has. if it wasnt for u helping me with ny i could never get this map to work. i thank u again for ur time and patienc, u have alot of it. by the way ny is doing great over 1.5 million ppl so far over 2 million toatal citywide and all i have is 5 out of 99 large maps used so far. im debating to do a cj with it. granted its not life like except the landmarks, and zone's. streets are no where near lifelike. thanx again mallow!

Thanks for all the maps Mallow, I appreciate good, hard work.  Yours is amonst the best.

[blade2k5 1,523]

Your latest map, Rome, was a godsend because I've been wanting to build my own version of Rome and can now finally do it. Thanks Mallow for the inspiration to make maps and for somehow knowing exactly what I wanted

By the way, I did what you encouraged me to do a few days ago and started my own showcase/info thread about the maps I've made and will make.

[MallowTheCloud 41]

Thanks for the comments, petercintn and blade2k5!

I'm glad you like Rome.

[MallowTheCloud 41]

I had a request to crop Rome to just the center 5x5 large cities, so I'm attaching the zip of that version here.

[cnystrom1 1]

ya about that rome map... its awsome, but i cant render it maybe cause i have the Columbus terrain mod... would that affect the map? if so, i tried to uninstall it, and it wont let me, any advise? it says i uninstalled it, but it is still visible in the game, and i believe i deleted everything since it asks you if you want to uninstall everything related to that mod... any advise is much appreciated, if it is in fact the mod affecting my rendering

[MallowTheCloud 41]

The Columbus Terrain Mod can affect the importing of maps. What I would suggest is to take EVERYTHING out of your plugins folder (to a temporary folder), adding the 1000m.dat to your plugins folder, then rendering. Then after rendering, you can remove the 1000m.dat file and put back all your other plugins.
