Think it was DevilSoul that used a little camp located in the Tao Village map, I thought that was pretty cool.

That was and still is a custom map, we just used does buildings and tiles (I like blue)

You just gave me an idea form a Homezone, thanks :P

i personally hate when i log on a server for the first time and it has a custom home map, i like to try a server befor downloading new maps,

when u can't move around because the maps are black, gets on my nerves

agreed

custom homezones r ok, just annoyin getin 2 know em etc

Isn't that kind of irrelevant when, like on your server, there's one big **** off teleport NPC in the middle any way. :P

That being said, most "custom" jobs simply dont cut it, and never will. There's probably one good mapper on LOMCN... at best.

Weren't you going to release an updated mir.set or did I imagine that :P

Although to be honest not knowing how to fix the mistakes wont make you any less a map editor, it's a ****ing stupid program to begin with. You can make good maps, quite simply if you're a good designer and have enough experience with the game.

Whilst I've seen good town maps on here, and some nice experimental ones. None are actually any better then Bichon Wall in terms of ticking all the correct boxes. Sometimes I feel people try to deviate too much from default mir and it doesnt quite work.

Any way....
