Oceania Map!-CC MAP UP!

[Skittles!]

You need to fix up the borders for Australia. NSW isn't that big, Queensland is bigger. SA is not that big either.

[Skittles!]

Also, it's Fiji, not Figi

[spinwizard]

and about game play???

[spinwizard]

fiji changed and i will do aus soon

[Skittles!]

fiji changed and i will do aus soon

Game play is good, the links between the islands look good.

Also about the names. For Papa New Guinea, it's Papua.

And with the left island it's called West Irian Jaya, not Indo New Guinea.

Hope those name changes help to make it better.

[spinwizard]

made ur changes, thanks 4 the help it is nice 2 have some1 with info on the area helping as u can correct these things!

any other comments on the gameplay or graphics?

[Skittles!]

... Victoria isn't all that big, make it the same size as before, and NSW bigger. Then it should be right.

[spinwizard]

[Skittles!]

That's really better. I hope you complete it soon.
Also 9 continents are too much, I think. Combine some like. New Guinea and Indonesia and the Philipines.

[spinwizard]

i dont think it will be quenched 4 abit...(lots of graphics work and some rearangeing of the island names/circles)do u find the names/circles confusing, i dont but others do...

[spinwizard]

i like the new guinie contenent as it is a small 1 that is a key point 2 the map (can attack lots of contenents) and i feel that if u place alot of armys on new guine u can stop traffic from the land mass to the islands...unless u go through indo/aus...any1 else have an opinion other than me and skittles?

SpinWizard, This is starting to look good....although I think the dotted blue lines are confusing with the island group lines being the same.

Is there any name for that island at the bottom of Australia?

Any room for Norfolk Island off New South Wales, and the Cocus Islands off WA which are also part of Australia's territory.

Indo New Guinea consists of two prvinces...Papua and Irian Jaya and is part of Indonesia.

New Zealand needs to be included as a name. Shape of the North Island needs slight lenghtening, as the Bay of Island peninsula should be much longer that it is.

Hope this is helpful. Looks like it might be a good challenge!

DON'T FORGET TO VOTE FOR THE BARRIER REEF ISLANDS!

1-im looking into new ways 2 represent connections.

2-I had it there (hobart) but i took it out as it was abit useless but will put it back if ppl want it there

3-would they improve game play???if more ppl want them i will add them (how big r they)

4-I struggled 2 get the indo new guine name in as it us. It would be too cramped if i split it into 2. (well more cramped than it is already)

5-New Zeland will be included as a name when i set the contenents/bonuses, i will change the shape im a min.

6- i like ur map but it looks abit regon spesific (like ur other map) but keep working on it!

1. Norfolk and Cocus Islands would be too small. The map is already squeezing in enough islands. But I guess they could be counted to the states.

2. The Island underneath Victoria is Tasmania, I guess it could be put in, but I don't see the point, except for an extra territory.

3. I've already put in about New Guinea.

This is going good SpinWizard, look forward to see the bonuses.

Now, back on topic.

What program are you using spinwizard?

Those army shadows look tiny, what size are they?

If you tone down the sea texture, the clarity of the map may improve. Then you may be able to tackle the problem of how to represent the islands. Perhaps a faint colour in the spaces you have marked out with a solid border? I'm not really sure, you'll just have to play around with it to find something that looks best.

sorry m8 i missed ur post! i am useing fireworks and i dunno about the circles, i just made them, not 2 any size

[spinwizard]

changed the n. island

[Skittles!]

I think the sea texture needs to be changed. I find it to be too bright.

Also, I think you should morph the Orange continent to another one, or into others. Like, Baker to brown or pink, Jarvis to blue and Palmyra to blue.

I just don't see the point with a three territory continent on the outskirts of the map.

[spinwizard]

1-erm i cant change it...it wont let me

2- if some other ppl support this i will merge them

[lVlaniac]

im kida confuse in your map im not saying thats a bad idea but the lines are so twisted in such small places

[Skittles!]

The more I look at it, the more I get confused by the lines.

Spinwizard, try and just make them simple bridge type lines.

[spinwizard]

u mean like this connection?

[Skittles!]

Yes, like that. Just to make it look less confusing.

[spinwizard]

ok, i may be a while on this update (i have got 2 airbrush out the other lines and put these in!)

[spinwizard]

I dont like it...u?

[Skittles!]

Hmm, it's alright. But.. The colour is what is taking it back now I think, it's too much like the ocean, and too bright.

I really wished the experts with the map making can come here and see it, cause I'm not all too good with this stuff.

Yes, I think the colour needs to be changed. Maybe to a grey or something.. Not really sure what to.
