No, he is still alive (I think). He also started another project, you can find the link to it in my signature. But I think he had some real life problems so he hasn't been doing anything on either project. :(
 
Didn't kill myself. :)

True, had some RL probs, still dealing with them as my life has changed quite a bit since then.

Dunno if I'll ever have time dealing with this... The maps ARE modifiable, but it would be a hell to do. That's one of the reasons I stopped looking (apart from finding no apparent new info after several days of researching).

For copy of the Indian and the Inut Mail-me
Friendly greetings:)
 
Wow i just stumbled over that. Great work i have to say.
But wouldn´t it be easier to ask some of the guys from Paradox about that?:)
Anyway if we could rework the map I am sure the box of pandora would be opened. Maybe we should leave some of EU2´s mysteries alone?:confused:
 
/me runs into wall

*Bump*

Has anyone attempted a decoding of the Lightmap files? Inferis has everything else...
 
job sursh?

:) I would not dare to try to fit the shoe's of the man who cracket the TBL files....those are wey tho big We just have modest 46size :D
We wantet to know the coordinates of the provinces bordering to the empty voits on the map.
We Createt thus Plugging the wholles in Strategicon Forum (The German Forum) those were maps of the provinces that we planned to create and thus completing Siberia ,Mongolia,India,Arabia,Afrika,Australia and America......
A Comp.crash robbed us of 99% of oure files and drawings .
Some are stil in oure Forum and with some luck retrevable
We think that with the possibilety to ADD to the BOUNDBOX and lokking in to it we can adit into or from the Boundbox enabeling us to "knit" the new provinces ONTO excisting border provinces......that was the plan and that's why we asket Inferis for help by e-mail some time ago.

oh no!! the horror!! :(

Cry aloud and start all over again.

:) Well I know quite well what the maps looked like but all the drawings of the Siberian iniut for exemple ore the Kasmirian warrior and state weapon and 100drets of other illu's all gone through the toilet.....
31 provinces to complete Siberia inc. illu's
17 " " Mongolia
7 to plug the Himalaya gap inc. illu's
The Manitoba map and Indian etc.....etc......al in all 3 month of work........gone...
Well lukely we never heart of the word "QUIT" read it in some one elses manua......once.....
Well start a new as soon as we will be home........in september.l
-------Forza you live a stone throw away from us , we live in Deventer!.
 
This sounds awesome :)
Did you figure out how to:
1. Rename existing provinces (i.e. change the name displayed on the map)
2. Reshape existing provinces
3. Create new provinces by splitting off some territories from existing provinces (e.g. you would make a "Noord-Brabant" from the east of the Zeeland province or Jülich from the west of Köln and the east of Zeeland)

Especially 3 would be awesome (I'm starting to dream about accurate maps in the Lowlands, the Balkans, Russia, Germany...):D
 
That is the idea......
In our idea Zeeland wil be split in smaller zeeland and braband wich will be united with the excisting Braband.
Thus one has to alter the exiting borders wich will be now problem wenn one can excess the boundbox and alter its contents.....
Indied it is the idea to "Compleat the world" so modern day scenario`s can work to its fullests.
names of provinces and capitals can already be altert as provinces outlines can to but only within the excisting borders as they are on the map.
"Pluging the wholes" must make it posibele that every scenario writter can alter the borders thus that the fit his scenario needs...
greetings..:) :)

I could, if one wishes it, make a facimile map looking like the 1500 cent. or so just take some time.....
 
It would be particularly awesome if you were able to redraw the map in the Balkans since that would finally end all the frustrating arguments on how they ought to be set up in the AGCEEP and any other mod.
Would you be able to do the following (I hope you have historical maps displaying the respective territories, otherwise I can post one):
You take the current Veneto, Steiermark, Istria, Krain, Croatia, Dalmatia, Bosnia, Serbia, Kosovo, Ragusa, Albania, Macedonia, Thrace, Hellas and Morea provinces and reshape them into the following new provinces:

Veneto
Kärnten (Carinthia)
Steyermark (Styria)
Friuli
Istria (Venetian Istria)
Krain
Celje
Croatia
Slavonia
Dalmatia
Bosnia
Hercegovina
Montenegro
Serbia
Beograd (city area)
Durazzo (city area)
Albania
Epirus
Achaia
Morea
Thessalia
Athens
Macedonia
Thessaloniki (city area)
Thrace
Constantinople (city area)
