World map round 2

I'm not good at making other than cartograph maps, but I know there is someone here that is pro at this. Here is the link purple posted Round 2.

And then it's just to start rendering and post it here.

Here we go:
WARNING!
THIS PICTURE IS LARGER THAN 10MP AT A FILE SIZE OF 12.5MB!
Click here if you understood that and won't complain or bitch around about the image being huge.

And the caves (for Dorfs country):

Tribe's arena looks awesome
Wow I really don't like the tunnel map. It makes me think of worms. Larva. ickkk

Your really observant purple. I don't know if I should tell you it. But it was just John that tested and showed a design for round three planning.

I'm currently rendering the googlemap style views of Round 2. Very large map, gonna take awhile.

wowzors, 26,377 'chunks'

haha. No ETA. I'll post as soon as it's complete.

Good. It's juts gonna be awesome when you have finished the Google map like map.

I got the isometric and normal cartograph map rendered but I did not post it because it was to large and I did not find a internet page that would take a so big file. Luckily gobbo could.

Lol@the giant wilhelmsen in nordland

Had to set my marks. I just made it fast with some cobblestone. Behind of it I had all my Redstone testing.

By the way. It's impressive how big the tribes Colosseum was. You really get in into perspective when you see it on a map. And it's also impressive that I newer found tribes am-phi theater However I did try to find it several times.

You may have confused it for our world tree... a few people did

I wanted to update you all:

I'm currently uploading some +20,000 files to my host for the world image.

Here is Round 2's Google map!

Round 2's night is currently being uploaded. It will take about an hour or even more for all of the +30,000 files to upload.

edit:
I'll mention that I'm debating removing the signs. They really seem to hurt the viewing. I'm not exactly sure how I will do that, but I think I know how.

Really awesome terror! Man, tribe looks like a theme park.

My favourite attraction is the assassins tower what is yours? Or bungee jumping without bungee form the world tree.

It's so much easier to orientate oneself with a map like that. I have made one over tribe city for round 3 on tribe topic but that's with the mini map.

Actually I didn't. Simply put it on my own webspace (kinda special thanks to gobbo from gobbo-online.de, that guy is totally awesome )

How do you render these pictures/maps or w/e it's called?

You use a program called Overviewer if you want to do the Google map style. Or cartograph if you want it a bit more easy. Cartograph don't give the same quality but it works fine and it's a lot easier to use.

Overviewer is easy. It just so happens that there isn't a very nice step by step tutorial. But I'm willing to assist anyone in learning how to do it.


Also, overviewer produces THOUSANDS of little files. For example, I believe Round 2 was ~36,000 some odd files that were created. All of these files need to be uploaded.

Secondly, Overviewer uses a cache system. Meaning, you can re-render a map and if a chunk has not been changed, it will not re-render it again. This makes Overviewer nice when you constantly make map updates for a server.

I found out how to remove the signs. I will re-upload a second in-game lighting version that contains NO signs. Should make for some nice viewing.
