Be Legendary 5 Posted April 6, 2019 (edited) I downloaded the new ServerGridEditor but I don't see these supposed 200 new islands. They all look the same except for ONE ocean trench? Am I missing something? Wheres the swamp? the new island that ISO made? ADD: Ok so I found about 20 or so ending in EU, but I don't see any new biomes added to the templates etc? sorry for my ignorance if that is the case. I guess I was hoping for more new and different look and types. Edited April 6, 2019 by Be Legendary 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
krazmuze 120 Posted April 6, 2019 (edited) The new map made by modders was never part of the new map - that is instead something that is a standalone map itself with similar concepts to ark maps that have everything in one place - great for smaller servers. They have not said anything further about release plans for unofficial or official networks that will use that new smaller map - but they are also not the devs of the map they are just promoting a modders work. They stated clearly in the twitch stream that the 1-2 more islands per grid was not new, that was copy paste of existing islands to make more room for the new island flagging system (each grid has a range of sizes on it now) The idea that it was hundreds of new islands was always fantasy - they never said those islands themselves was new. The only new thing is new eastern tundra islands is replacing the use of western tundra in the east tundra region. Those are new islands but done in the same way as eastern vs. western tropical/temperate. The same shapes modified with add on sublevels to make them look significantly different with different flora/fauna to have regional distinctions. This was badly needed as tundra was the most severe copypaste since it lacked the east/west variations that other biomes had simply because they released too early. There are also the new trenches next to the powerstone islands for the new second endgame, they are essentially underwater islands. New biomes is in their long term plan but that was never part of 1.5. The question is how would they add them without doing another map redesign wipe?

krazmuze 120 Posted April 7, 2019 (edited) I did not say adding new islands I said add new biomes. Without expanding the server network and increasing their daily costs when the population may not merit it - it means redesigning the existing map on the existing server network. So unless it needs a wipe for other reasons or the population increases - I doubt new biomes will be high on their list. Eastern tundra was not a priority until they needed to wipe anyways.

Trenches and east tundra are all that is new as far as islands go , other than that its all the same p.s i too am wondering what happned to the mod map that was meant to be released that had everything on it ala ark for single servers Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

And know that are busy revamping the game they do not have time to promote/support an official map mod program like Ark?
