Yeah, because those two are supposed to be the same Hyrule, and still loads of places have moved on the map for some reason.
How so. ALTP/ALBTW is located somewhere within sailing distance of Labryna or somewhere that sailing is faster, with Koholinter in it's route. Drab/Hytopia are located on a northern coast, it is listed as having a 'connection with Hyrule' but beyond what kind of connect is not listed physical,trade,cultural,blood,etc. LoZ1/2 is located on a North and East coast with a body of water to the south, Tolmec is located on an Eastern Coast and recognizes Zelda as their royalty. Labryna and Holodrum are located on a southern coast. Minish location is unknown. Gamelon and Koridian are unknown location other than close enough for travel to be possible.

The tingle continents locations are unknown.
 
Death Mountain is north on the OoT map, but suddenly east on the TP map. The temple of time's position in TP makes no goddam sense, since it's supposed to be the same Temple of Time as in OoC (and where's the ruins of the rest of OoC Castle Town? Have the temple somehow teleported to Faron Woods?). Zora's domain is suddenly in the far north, and while it was in the northern regions of the map in OoT it was still south of Death Mountain. And why is Gerudo Desert now south in relations to Lake Hylia, when it clearly was north in OoT. Sorry but these things have bothered me for years.

If we perfectly overlayed OOT hyrule with the TP temple of time, then you would have death mountain in south hyrule field, Zora's domain (OOT) in the woods. Kakiriko village in the woods. As for the Temples location we went with it's relative. We attempted to overlay, then part out, until we came to a better conclusion of having the OOT being part of a later 'Empire of' Hyrule and then abandoned for whatever reason, destroyed in a later war.
 
So when deciding placement of OOT and TP Hyrule, I differed to Hyrule Historia and a careful analysis of the TP map. The Temple was my constant reference point, and given the 'hundrends' of years between the two games, it is quite possible that the peoples migrated to the north-east a bit, leaving the Kokiri and Gerudo races behind, explaining their absence in TP. This would thus make OoT Hyrule as an unseen part of Faron province (which would also explain its small size compared to the other two main provinces); especially since the Temple is in the Faron province in TP. Give the fact that most games with Hyrule have a Lake Hylia, Death Mountain, and Zora's Domain in them, all in different places it seems quite probable that these are all different Hyrules set up in different places in different times caused by movements over the history. Without the timeline established in HH, it would be more difficult to come to any conclusion.
 
I'm half finished with the terrain map along with finished with all canon rivers. Attached is the western half, the finished, section of the terrain map. The majority of western Hyrule is taken up by the 'Sea of Sand'. and it's temperture is mostly tropical.

To the NW of Hyrule (Continent) is the canon Spirit/New Hyrule/New Cobble/Waywayway continent. To the south west is the mostly noncanon Rupee/Gemland continent in which the Gemlanders are is a constant struggle against the worshipers of the Demon "Uncle" Rupee. The western peninsula is the semicanon "Cobble" Kingdom populated by 3 cultures the "Pebbles", "Cobbles", and "Gravels" (not very inventive with names). Along the eastern mountains of the 'Cobble' kingdom is the Goron mountain containing the origin point for the goron race and the Frozen mountain populated by the Anouki and Yook. On the northern coast, shown is the canon "Drab" lands populated by all the drab (monster) inhabitants and the grasslands to the south is the semicanon Hytopia. On the southern coast in the noncanon Comania, which is the Hyrule version of Termina mostly populated by Heretical sheikah who have abandoned their quest of finding the reincarnation of Hylia. In between Comania and Hytopia is the Sand Goddess statue, haunted wastes (on the eastern edge) and the semicanon Zuna Empire. The southern island is the official noncanon of Yamatami and the three islands to the north are the offical noncanon Frozen Isle, Gooey isle, and Steamy Isle, populated by Frozen Islanders, and piratical blins and stalfos.

On alpha:

As of now my plan is to release alpha 0.0.1 when I have the eastern half the western half of the map will not be playable, till at least alpha 0.0.2 when i gerudo reproduction events finished and steamed out.

Edit: I'm going with the got titular style, most cultures empires are called kingdoms and the kingdoms are called minor kingdoms. The cobble kingdoms is the same way, but the hytopians call kingdoms kingdoms and empires great kingdoms. Empires are never mentioned in loz.

Hey do you need any help for this mod? I see your are making good progress so far and I am willing to help. I can help on provinces, histories, landed titles, and such. Feel free to message me.
 
so hows the map going, any ETA on the alpha.
I'm ~80% done with the terrain map, I only have 2 shown locations left gamelon island and koholint island. I'm working on the last of the mainland location, Moria, Wizzrobe kingdom, Arcadia, Calatia, Lin/Hanman and then filling in the 'sea of trees' that connects most of the southern kingdoms.


Alpha .1 release date is June/July. The alpha .1 will not have most of western half (desert portions) nor the other continents. The undead and god like beings, great fairy, tree demon/deity, demons. I've got to make an entire asexual reproduction event for the tree gods and undead are pretty low on my priority and wont be out till after the gerudo.

I've got the triforce events up and running at least for the 1st generation. Along with stealing other's pieces of triforce, making the triforce, and granting of 'basic wishes' (money, healing self, giving positive traits, and immortality)

EDIT: 5/27/2016

Wizzrobe and Calatia are all that remains on terrain.

EDIT: 6/5/2016

Finished Wizzrobe and Calatia. Adding Snow to mountains.

I've finished the Terrain map, not including desert river greenery, Remaining before the colormap I have to fix the river map and finish the desert river running through the Valley of Seers, Darknut kingdom, and gerudo kingdom.



From upper right (from right to left, right to left, etc) to bottom left, there is the Koridai islands populated by hylians and monsters (LoZ Faces of evil).
To the west of the islands is the Hoho kingdom (semi canon Phantom Hourglass) and the way and way way mountains, populated hylian (hoho) and yeti respectably, the three islands to the west of the Hoho kingdom is the three islands (2nd continent Tingle).

To the south of the Koridai islands is the Empire Great Hyrule/Saria/Kasuto/Eldin, the eastern island is Kasuto (east hyrule) populated by humans and in late game over timeline hylians, to the west, mainland, is Saria (west hyrule like wise populated by humans till late game over, to the south is east death mountain (eldin/little hyrule depending on owner's culture (monster/human/hyrulean)), unlike the northern partners it was never able to be settled by any of the human off shoots till hyrulean expansion, game over timeline.
To the east of great hyrule/etc is Calatia (Zelda comic official noncanon) populated by hylians.
To the west of Calatia , steppes+sandy mountains, is the lost tribe of the wizzrobes a generally despotic rule of the magic capable ruling over the less than magically capable.

The island to the south of Kasuto is the island of gamelon (wand of gamelon) populated by hylians.
\to West and slightly south is the kingdom of Tolemac(Zelda's adventure) populated by humans, eventually they fell under control of great hyrule.
To the west of tolemac is Hyrule Empire (tp/oot) made of 6 kingdoms, death mountain gorons, (northern) hyrule (TP), zora's domain, ordon, and hyrule (sacred grove) (TP), depending on the bookmark the empire takes 2 duchies from the gerudo kingdom.
To the west of (TP) Hyrule is the gerudo kingdom who are frequently in conflict with the hyruleans,hytopians,orodnions, and darknut for 'boyfriends'.
Situated between the gerudo kingdom and the the valley of seers is the darknut kingdom (mostly non-canon) originally controlling most of the gerudo kingdom, however do to strict adherence to a code of honor and use of only infantry they were slowly pushed back into the valley situated between the two lost tribes.
To the west of the gerudo kingdom is the Zuna empire situated around the sea of sand and in contact with the cobble empire/kingdom.

To south of gamelon is the Port Town Islands (Tingle official noncanon).
To the west of Port Isles is Arcadia nestled again ordon and the sea of trees populate by humans.
To the west of Arcadia is the upper right portion of the mix of conon sea of trees/deku woods/lost woods (nonmonster/deku or kokiri/ monster) stretching all the way to the southern most countries, it consists of 4 kingdoms the Lost woods in the north east, the kokiri forest in the north west, the minish woods in the western central, and the fairy woods in the south connecting the empires of labrynna and holodrum

The peninsula below the Port isles is Hanman (originally Lin but official noncanon had Hanman) made up by plains, islands, and a nearly in hospitable desert at first bookmarks monster use the desert as a staging ground again the Hanman, OOT bookmark hanman finally ends the monster occupation of the desert and after Game over oot the expansion by the monsters in the lost woods and arcadia push the hanman into the desert.
To the west of Hanman is grand hyrule (LTTP/LBW), populated by monster till the kokiri led the remnants of the Hyruleans to it.
To the west of grand hyrule across the Sea of Trees is the Wind Kingdom (MC), populated the windtribe. Do to marriage ties the wind tribe aided the Hyruleans in establishing the holy kingdom of Hyrule (oot). However shortly after the establishment (2nd bookmark based on Chest war) monsters invaded and forced the windtribe to flee to the sky or be enslaved.

The peninsula to the south of hanman is the moria and falsia peninsula.
Moria beeing the tip. Moria (official noncanon) is populated by humans the plains remained under monster control till 2+ book mark when a band of knights aided the Morians in driving the monsters out, this enventually causes a culture split becoming the 'mountain morians' keeping their long bows and the 'plains morians' adopting a code of chivalry and cavalry.
To the south west of Moria is Falsia (april fools joke), the northern portion, other side of the mountains is the origins of the Human inhabitants and the southern portion being the more untamed, like wise the land was under monster control till a band of knights aided the falsians in driving them out.
To the South of west of Falia is the empire of Labrynna (OoA) made of the Crescent Island populated the most docile species of monsters the tokay (they'll steal from you but not kill you), the rolling hills to the north, Labrynna (proper) and the Sea Zora's Domain boardering the Fairy Woods. Across the Fairy woods is the Empire of Holodrum made of the Holodrum mountains (later renamed goron), Horon populated by humans, Samasa (Desert bordering the sea).
To the west of Holodrum is Comani (noncanon) mostly populated by monsters with an enclave of heretical Sheikah situated in the mountains.

And finally to the south is the island Kingdom of Koholinter populated by humans that worship a sleeping god, they claim should their god ever be awaken their world will come to an end but if he remains asleep for ever their world become twisted and horrifying.

So as you guys probably have guessed Alpha won't be released in July.

We still have the province map of Calatia, Hoho, Sea of trees (4 kingdoms), Wizzrobe, and hytopia left and still most of the 'modern' histories left. However the kingdom of Hyrule (OoT), just the hylian parts right now, and the tribes of Koridai are populated and select able.

EDIT: I'll post images of OoT Hyrule (Sacred Grove/Hyrule/Grooseland) when I finish with the south Zora's domain and Death Mountain.

Note: The flags aren't correct as I haven't yet made one for every single b-e, that's actually the flag for duchy West Hyrule Field's as Sacred Grove/Hyrule's flag
