[tranquil tundra]

There the mountain dwarfs who are relentless warriors and absolute tanks and the swamp dwarfs, who are the traditional artesians who everybody thinks about.

[tranquil tundra]

This one have a good trick

The snowy part of the mountains are permafrost biome

So we can have "mountain civilizations"

[hasty onyx]

Yes, it is a good idea and works best in the Andes like you have it.

[hasty onyx]

Which one?

[fast ridge]

I think the left one look better

Feels more, natural if that makes sense

[hasty onyx]

Yes

The one on the right is an old iteration

I'm doing a little remake because I want to upload it onto this discord

32x32 largest

[fast ridge]

Aye nice

Too bad my potato cant handle that size tho

Also, since evryones posting maps their working on, heres mine

[hasty onyx]

don't worry there'll be smaller versions stoo

[hasty onyx]

That's really good

[fast ridge]

Ah alr

[fast ridge]

Thanks, im trying to imagine what a crashed floating island would look like

[hasty onyx]

Expanded snow, added a tundra (look at Iceland and Greenland if you wanna know what I mean by 'tundra')

[pastel ruin]

How do you go about creating mountains similar to the left image? Do you use a converter/copy over real data into worldbox, or are they hand painted?

[hasty onyx]

I made the map in paint.net and converted it into worldbox via program.

[tranquil tundra]

Ahhh, the alps.

The details are everything.

[hasty onyx]

so which one you thinking?

is better

[tranquil tundra]

I'm a big fan of deserts, but that green strip next to the mountain looks good too, so, left one.

And I don't like Russia with full permafrost

Looks like:

"The northeast region of Brazil is hot, so here comes the scorching desert of hell."

[hasty onyx]

The areas in permafrost happen to be majorly boreal or generally coniferous, whereas Europe is mostly deciduous, and I wanted to make a distinction. This also coincides with the Koppen climate model, that filters the regions I made permafrost as subarctic/boreal climate regions meaning they’re overall cold and have cold winters. Just something to diversify the map overall, so there isn’t a ural expanse of green

I don’t think trees grow on the tundra-like biome that you make if you lower temperature in-game with a tool, so I opted for this instead.

[tranquil tundra]

I wonder if some things from games like Fantasy Map Simulator could come to the worldbox and how the AI would work with different climates when building civilizations.

[green sparrow]

anyone know if I can change map margins on codepen? I'm on mobile

nvm I got it

how do I rename the file to map.wbox though? I have files named map.wbox already

[soft wagon]

Add Numbers

[green sparrow]

like map1.wbox? I tried that and the game doesn't register it

like I put the file into save 6 but in game it's not there

nvm I got it thx

[summer beacon]

please do not spread misinformation, it is harmful

[summer beacon]

you name it "map.wbox" so the game is able to find it

[soft wagon]

This was not misinformation

[summer beacon]

did you mean the save folder? or the map.wbox file

it sounded like you were referencing the map.wbox file

[hasty onyx]

Hey Ray @summer beacon

what looks better

[summer beacon]

2nd one

[hasty onyx]

thanks beam of wisdom

[summer beacon]

yw ^!^

[kind sorrel]

pretty sure thats not misinfo

sorry for late response

if you want worldbox things to work as im sure you know you have to make the savefolder and change its number

unless you misinterpreted it

[summer beacon]

how do I rename the file to map.wbox though? I have files named map.wbox already
Add Numbers
this made it seem like he was telling the person asking the question to add a number to the map.wbox file, not a save file

[kind sorrel]

yea but i infer from the message that he is talking about the folders

because there is nothing else related to maps about that

[summer beacon]

like map1.wbox? I tried that and the game doesn't register it

their talking about the map.wbox file

[kind sorrel]

i stand corrected

[hasty onyx]

On another thought, I'm waiting for the update.

[hasty onyx]

I'm gonna work to implem some upcoming biomes on here for fun

clover, flower, birch, idk about maple though some are native to Europe

[hasty onyx]

already added the approximate colors for the biomes to my palette ;p

clovers really happen to be a European thing

[acoustic edge]

Ireland :D

[hasty onyx]

The flower biome obviously has to be the Netherlands and Belgium

[hasty onyx]

so, clovers.

Eastern Europe has a lot of Birch forests, especially the Baltics, Belarus, Eastern Poland, Russia.

also Norway has a fair amount

very nice source. blue is dominant birch-aspen

there's also mixed yet significant* birch populations in Sweden

I'll also drop small blots of onion biome in the small areas of Iran and Central Asia, because that's where onions originate

obviously have to tidy this up, i made it push too far south in Russia.

So there are many types of 'Maple' trees native to Europe, eg Sycamore, but they aren't significant enough that they dominate any ecosystems in Europe afaik, unlike Asia and North America

I guess there could be a sensible yet insignificant sliver by the Urals, idk where else I could put the biome down.

Europe Acer (Sycamore Maple) native range I think

ok this should help

idk how i feel about this so far

it's very different

[last cloud]

You might say hate will get me nothing in life but I’ll just say “it’ll sure stop you from getting somewhere and that’s definitely something—cause I really hate you”

||Maybe getting a little off topic here ||

[golden kettle]

I hate that we're so off the topic of maps right now!

[tranquil tundra]

Knowing how the leap in intelligence of beings will be.

Now there are more reasons to go to war, to make peace, to form allies.

And now the war has another dimension too, the cultural one. I imagine that with the spread of language it will be much easier for cultures to spread and end up annihilating smaller cultures.

Currently, in the game, one of the few ways to quickly end a culture is through incessant wars, where units of that culture die in droves.

However, after the update, we can actually end up having a kind of colonization of thought.

The cultural layer of my Europe world.

The culture of the French Brittany region is almost disappearing.

Technically the economy will improve too, so there is still the issue of how the dominant culture affects the economy, like the economic language of the world being basically English.

It's very exciting to think about this, for someone who has done almost everything with this game in terms of economic and cultural experiences.

[sharp aspen]

Is there any way to download maps to my iphone and actually put them in game? Any tutorial or step by step would be lobely.

[true pelican]

If you own a PC, you can install maps on iOS as described in this guide: #1213490166023331850 message .
Otherwise, if you only have your iOS device, it's impossible to install maps on iOS because the operating system refuses to give you access to the game files that you'd need to insert the map into.

[fiery abyss]

Was about to say something to help the dude out

I have downloaded files app on android

On my side it works like this:
-download map
-save it on the files app
-open another window on the files app
-one window for downloaded map, one for game save file
-delete map.wbox file and replace it for the downloaded one
-close app and play the game, load the save and have fun 🙂

[fast ridge]

Ya cant, apple treats files like theyre military secrets

[fiery abyss]

Guess they think its illegal to edit them 😢

[fast ridge]

Welp, lets be grateful we are on android lmao

[fiery abyss]

Idumo

[fast ridge]

Depends on what your phone can handle i guess

[fiery abyss]

All.

I really just

Dowloaded an not mobile friendly freaking map and it loaded without a problem

[fast ridge]

Oh, i think theres like 50 america maps

[fiery abyss]

Ima stop yapping and make the dang map ig

[fast ridge]

You just gotta search it up

Aye good luck

[fiery abyss]

Thanks

[fast ridge]

Btw, you can make bigger maps using the converter

[hasty onyx]

considering adding heathlands, as enchanted forests, and moors, as mushroom biomes. these would be very sparse realistically.

Moors: high acidity soil, very moist, usually grassy plains with mosses and other low growth vegetation. find fair amount of different mushrooms in such plains. Usually areas of higher altitude

Heathlands: acidic and usually infertile soils, not self sustainable and quite susceptible to invasive species. Grassy, dwarf shrubs like gorse and heathers. Can be areas of both low and high altitude.

[teal steppe]

another update

[hasty onyx]

if we're talking ireland, then ireland would be mostly in mushroom biome to represent bogs/moors : p

• this is quite unpleasant for my eyes

nope! unless ur ios. follow this guide:

How to access the worldbox data folder on android 11 to 13.
If steps below don't work or android 14+ use these alternative methods :
#1150826964937084969 message

1. Download a third-party application like "File Manager" from google play,
2. Now go to your phone’s "settings" application, after that find/search an factory system application called "Files" (has a darker blue background with a big white folder in the center of the icon), then click it,
3. you will be showed the "app info" screen after clicked the "Files" application, find the three dots button,
4. After you see the three dots button, click the three dots button and then if it has an "uninstall updates" option there, make sure to choose the option (wait until the uninstalling process is done and completed to avoid a mistake),
5. Now open the third-party application (File Manager) and allow it to manage files,
6. Find the "Android" folder and open it, then open the data folder,
7. You'll see some popup, touch "ok"/"yes" and also touch the "use this folder" button at bottom without opening any files that are showing,
8. If you have succeeded, the app will now have access to android file and can enter the saves folder in "com.mkarpenko.worldbox" folder.

Let me ask you. If I draw a map with colors from the palette and then upload the resulting file to map conversation, will I get a map of the size I need?

is it possible to make map using 3rd party software (photoshop, ms paint) and have the drawn map converted?

[safe trout]

How do you get a map that is larger than the (I believe) 9/9 of the iceberg? I've seen 128x68 and similar sizes.

[mighty wolf]

You have to use the map converter, first you have to make a drawing of a map or just get a map that is for example 1280x1280 pixels or 20x20 and you have to convert it

[safe trout]

Oh, so you make a pixel drawing and then use a map converter to convert it into a worldbox map?

@vestal vigil

[teal lantern]

bout "All discoverable creatures, traits, and plots" there's no "new culture" plot

my bad i forgor to enable pause on start

[dawn spoke]

Thank you brother

[pastel ruin]

Is there anyway to decrease the required space for city to form?

[unkempt moss]

is there a decent earth map?

also with a large size

[hasty onyx]

@unkempt moss here's mine

[unkempt moss]

Lol I just downloaded it like 10 minutes ago

It's very good though

[hasty onyx]

thanks, glad you like it

[keen hawk]

Omg thank you very much!

[lusty sable]

Yo

[bright fern]

So I'm working on making a mario map. I think I need to make a larger version of the sunshine archipelago and dinosaur land. Where do you think it should go?

[upbeat venture]

how did you get it portrait

landscape*

i mean landscape

[idle totem]

the map converter

[bright fern]

Oh yeah and the flower kingdom

How big should it be

[golden kettle]

Imo relatively tiny but large enough to fit one settlement in each of its worlds

also do you plan on including the sprixie kingdom? (mario 3d world), it's a relatively major landmass but at the same time I'm not 100 on how you'd fit it since it's in another dimension (I think, this lore might be wrong...)

[bright fern]

The base map includes it but if I do add it, it'll probably be moved around and resized like the sunshine isles

[golden kettle]

oh what, ok noted

[bright fern]

I also wonder if there are any important locations from mario kart that could be added

[golden kettle]

also I think sunshine archipelago would fit nicely east of the southern contineent

[golden kettle]

except for details you can extract from mario kart worlds trailer it might be difficult to find out where each track actually is

[bright fern]

Based off the mario kart tracks it seems like the piantas are not native to Delfino Isle

There are a lot of tracks that seem to be their "homeland"

[golden kettle]

I think that they were the first major inhabitants of the isle, but yeah probably came from somewhere else

[bright fern]

Nokis:

[golden kettle]

also are you going to include a world map somewhere there because of the tour city tracks?

[golden kettle]

forgot about those guys ngl

[bright fern]

Wow. So the Piantas really did succeed in erasing their culture...

[bright fern]

Can you show where you mean

[golden kettle]

there are tracks in the mk8 dlc and mario kart tour called things like "tokyo blur" and "athens dash"

[golden kettle]

picture of the berlin one

[bright fern]

I mean where you think the sunshine would fit

[empty warren]

@storm elk your still missing two plots for some reason

[golden kettle]

oh,

[urban grotto]

how to make a map of poland

because it always comes crooked or weirdly aspect ratio

i guess time to atetmpt vatican

[hasty onyx]

So for this region, whoever is familiar with Skyrim, I put down a wasteland. In Skyrim, it's a field of geysers and a mountain in the middle which i get an impression is an ancient eroded volcano. The region overall looks very acidic and barely anything grows there, so i thought a wasteland biome seems fitting.

[hasty onyx]

what resolution is the map when you draw it in your paint program?

[urban grotto]

paint program?

i draw it in worldbox

[hasty onyx]

??

[urban grotto]

i draw it on sea in worldbox

[hasty onyx]

ok i thought when you were talking about 'aspect ratio' i thought you're using a map converter

[urban grotto]

i meant that its stretched

[hasty onyx]

if you want you can find a download of the map in #🌐map-downloads

im sure someone made one

[urban grotto]

i even tried making vatican

and i failed

[hasty onyx]

it's not easy to draw from reference, when you can't even overlay it and trace it

don't be hard on yourself

[urban grotto]

or drawing city

[hasty onyx]

yep

[urban grotto]

my city has simple shapes

there is no simple country i can make

[golden kettle]

yeah, I think that looks good

[bright fern]

I probably also need to just... scale up the mushroom island enough to make the beanbean and flower kingdoms stand out

[golden kettle]

by the way if you plan on adding the map shown in the mk world trailer probably add it somewhere to the right close to those islands imo for reasons you previously acknowledged (somewhere there is likely where piantas originate)

[bright fern]

I should add Wuhu island somewhere actually

[golden kettle]

actually true, it is theoretically canon to mario because it's in mk7

[storm elk]

What are the two plots...?

[empty warren]

these two

[storm elk]

I fixed that in latest iteratirof the map

version 3

[empty warren]

thanks!

[bright fern]

Does this make sense for the relative size of the beanbean and flower kingdoms

[golden kettle]

isnt the beanbean kingdom on the northeastern border or am I tripping

[bright fern]

The beanbean kingdom and and Flower kingdom are both southeeast of it

Which

Conflicts

So I moved beanbean to the southwest

[golden kettle]

ah alright, yeah and for size it seems right

[dawn geyser]

no its all good you are GOATED

[bright fern]

Are there any other landmasses that need altered or changed?

[edgy terrace]

Can somebody tell me how to get the avatar the last Airbender map

[faint fractal]

Im dumb ignore this lol mb

[lucid fog]

does anyone have a map with all the weapons yet?

[glass heath]

Map-downloads.

[timid fractal]

tiny island

[vast prairie]

How do I open maps if I download them through here?

[warm pewter]

Look on youtube my friend

[timid fractal]

biome archapelago

[pseudo anchor]

It would be nice to see if someone make a floating continent map

[bright fern]

Are there any biomes that should be changed?

[hasty onyx]

idk mario lore

but looks nice

[bright fern]

I'm not sure if I should add mountains and rivers for this and if so where they would be

[hasty onyx]

for mountains, maybe between bioregions that are contrast, so between desert and forest for example.

just an idea

and maybe isolate that candy biome from the corrupted

[hasty onyx]

if you look at the reference map you posted earlier, you can kinda make out where the intended mountain ranges were by the author cause of the relief

not entirely sure about the 'Lake Kingdom' cause the relief blends in with the terrain. and you can make out a similar pattern on the other continent of the world

[bright fern]

If only mountains could be overlaid on biomes

Biomes on mountains*

[hasty onyx]

yea it's a shame

you can always make them fair, so they're there, but don't obstruct anything on the map

add a lil snow

looks better that way

[spring obsidian]

question about map creation, if im using a cartography program what hexcodes should i use for different terrain?

nvm just answered my own question.

[steep goblet]

Should I start building map or just wait until they upset mobile for 0.50

??lmk asap

[bright fern]

You can definitely do the map without the biomes now

Mountains get a new layer in the update so keep that in mind

[steep goblet]

Right that’s why I asked

That’s very helpful thanks

[reef brook]

How to import the map in iOS?

You can't. iOS is closed source and therefore prevents you from messing around with game files to be able to import maps.

[bright fern]

I would appreciate any feedback since you can't say it in the actual channel and it will help me improve the mario one I'm trying to do

[storm elk]

looks pretty decent 👍

Really don't see any feedback to give if that's the style ur going for

[bright fern]

The mario world map is very weird with biomes and while I want to be accurate I also don't want it to be ugly and generic.

[storm elk]

So really only thing you can do rn is maybe add in some ocean features if you want

and make more of the terrain elevation look accurate to og map

[bright fern]

Mountains for the Mario map

[long plume]

Hey

I'm new

[bright fern]

Hello

[merry lion]

wheres the save file

[rocky needle]

Anyone have a world map map

[strong blaze]

@rocky needle there's one here

[visual dock]

Is there a map with the dissolve alliance plot and or the blood rain plot

And a map that is easier to get the Greg achievement on?

[faint anchor]

@bright fern which one has the map in it

[bright fern]

The bottom one should.

[faint anchor]

if i get a virus im banning you

[bright fern]

Hopefully it's actually fun to play on

[storm elk]

why u posting the files like that

u using some plugin to obfuscate file names??

[faint anchor]

ask blumi

its her download

[storm elk]

y post file like that

[sleek wadi]

🥀

[bright fern]

Yes

[sleek wadi]

why

[bright fern]

I just had it enabled without thinking about it

[storm elk]

most data u get from the name of a file typically is the date and time from pictures... (and device type)

not really sure why'd one have more identifying info than that in a file name tbh

[raw vector]

Been working on this map on and off for a bit. Still not finished though. Any suggestions?

[bright fern]

I think there should be more mountains up on this peninsula and less in the center

[raw vector]

Great suggestion. I've thought the same. Thank you

Going to be a pain though 😭

[fleet grove]

what are some good small maps to download?

[elfin mauve]

any map converters compatible with mac?

[balmy linden]

Just updated the convertor to let you enable/disable worldlaws. (+Open sourced & Linux build)
An example being having Gaia enabled (and a bunch of other stuff disabled) to allow maps to be undisturbed upon loading in

@keen hawk not sure if you'd utilize it, but thought maybe some tiles are prone to default world laws

[balmy linden]

honestly I would, but Apple such a pain because its propietary and not easy to setup to be built unless you have a mac device handy... I do not

[balmy linden]

there is an online convertor though https://codepen.io/Deathrobloxian/full/pvzvPJj which you might be able to use

[keen hawk]

Omg I would definitely make use of those! There are always certain world laws that I prefer disabled when loading in a converted map

Biomes Overgrowth and Erosion are definitely the two main ones that I always prefer to be off since those directly ruin the terrain

[balmy linden]

I made one called gaia, pretty straight forward. (this one may disable more than your preference so you can just make a copy and adjust what you need)
basically just set true or false to whatever you need

this one was me just disabling all and anything that would change the map, like even tree growth.

though its nothing crazy since you can pause the game, maybe more useful if I add additional features to prevent needing to open the game and resaving the file

[keen hawk]

https://tenor.com/view/ilike-borat-like-nice-good-gif-19308009

[buoyant vine]

I dont know why, but I feel like there should be a monolith in the center island, also what size are you going to make the map?

[snow thistle]

anyone have a map with all of the new plots active?

[raw vector]

The map is 18x13. What center island are you talking about?

[elder dawn]

is there any map that has all the creatures available to discover so I can download? does anybody know any fast methods to unlock traits and stuff yet?

[buoyant vine]

I meant add an island in the center where that void hole is and add the monolith to it

[raw vector]

I see. I would like to, but I want the ocean to feel bigger. I actually removed islands because of it

But thank you for your suggestion. I appreciate it

[fast ridge]

A nice little map im working on

[raw vector]

Looks great. Nice shape to the main continent and islands. Water detail is there too, and flows with it. Get some mountains and forest soil and it'll be a very interesting map

[fast ridge]

Aye thanks, i usually work on the ocean first, land second since its basicly half the map

[raw vector]

It works out nicely for you. I usually do both simultaneously as I go through the process.

[sleek wadi]

Interesting, enchanted trees can grow on birch biome

And these guys can grow on grass

Don't have this either

Some trees are incompatible

Should prolly update

[sleek wadi]

@storm elk Still can't lol

I was hoping the new patch would fix that

This isn't activated either

[brittle kettle]

you gotta activate that yourself

[sleek wadi]

I'm well aware, I'm just showing that it's not the issue

[storm elk]

can somebody help out with this

[hollow crow]

How do I use downloaded maps on iPad

[true pelican]

If you own a PC, you can install maps on iOS as described in this guide: #1213490166023331850 message .
Otherwise, if you only have your iOS device, it's impossible to install maps on iOS because the operating system refuses to give you access to the game files that you'd need to insert the map into.
@hollow crow

[storm elk]

Ok seeing as I wasn't pinged with any complaints think I truly have the last one

[hasty onyx]

vivec

[woven sand]

Does anyone have any large maps based on Dr. Stone's world map?

[hasty onyx]

it's all coming together

[pseudo anchor]

@hasty onyx Morrowind?

[hasty onyx]

yup

[pseudo anchor]

Is it part of larger map?

Nice map btw

[hasty onyx]

yes, all of Tamriel

thank you

[pseudo anchor]

How big is the map that you're making?

Let me guess, 70x55?

[hasty onyx]

in worldbox terms, it would be approx 85x45

close

here's skyrim rn

[pseudo anchor]

Looks really good

[hasty onyx]

thanks, wanna put it out soon

[pseudo anchor]

Definitely for pc only tho

[hasty onyx]

or at least, specific provinces

[hasty onyx]

i'd also do a scaled down version for each province, for mobile players

[pseudo anchor]

Nothing I can do but admire

[pseudo anchor]

That's good to hear, still doesn't beat the experience of the original version tho.

[hasty onyx]

Yeah, that I agree with. Redrawing rivers is also annoying when I have to scale down lol

but for mobile it's appropriate to exclude most of the rivers, because water tiles stop creatures from settling and making villages, if there's too many.

[pseudo anchor]

Do you have more maps that you posted in the map downloads?

[hasty onyx]

yeah on my old account that i deleted, so searching them makes it harder

and some on cool-maps

but they're all from 2022 and before so they're not the best

[small path]

can anyone make a map for me pls 🙂

[royal palm]

Hey has anyone made a Lands Between (Elden Ring) map?

[tacit kelp]

Anyone have hood mobile map

[quick torrent]

how do you download maps on pc?

[bright fern]

I think it would be really awesome if you were to make a version with proper cultures and religions and languages for each province.
And maybe another balkanized one

[hasty onyx]

100%, that's the final idea. But if I don't do it, I'd obviously let someone else do it.

[true pelican]

Follow this guide to see how you can install and upload maps:
https://the-official-worldbox-wiki.fandom.com/wiki/Maps
@quick torrent

[hasty onyx]

though i must say, doing that on the the full map would make it probably unplayable on most PCs, so I'd have to scale it down.

[bright fern]

💔💔💔
I would try doing it for the larger map since my PC can handle things well

I do think getting the cultures right will be a bitch though.

[golden kettle]

did they fix the AI tripping tf out when the map is huge this update?

I remember that used to happen in previous versions but idk if that is still the case

[misty iron]

Is there any method to making rivers

[solid jungle]

who has good map generator settings im too lazy to make a map

[azure igloo]

Add Greg and if you kill him he will turn into a demon lord

[lyric badger]

rate it

[lyric badger]

I usually paint rivers with the smallest square brush. It's beautiful and creatures can cross them.

keep in mind that rivers and lakes are mostly located on the plains.

[shut belfry]

That's really good!

[green perch]

indeed it is really good

[arctic zodiac]

Is it possible to use the map converter on mobile or nah? If so how do I use it?

[hasty onyx]

Probably not lbr. And i imagine it’s gonna be worse with cultures, there would be so many forming everywhere

[hasty onyx]

Sure you can do that. But yeah, the cultures and languages would probably be changing all the time, in this beta version at least.

[sleek wadi]

@storm elk the new map worked, ty

[karmic idol]

Could anyone make a Wheel of Time World?

[prisma magnet]

hey, so im trying to add a map i downloaded but my locallow file is not ther

which is weird

[merry lion]

why when i download a map it never shows up in the game

[prisma magnet]

have you put it in the right location and changed the name to map.wbox instead of like map(2).wbox

[prisma magnet]

nvm i found it

[idle totem]

@storm elk is there someone with the suspicious status in your map?

[sleek wadi]

No

I tried looking

That's the last thing I need to unlock as well

Then I have everything

Also, I should make some maps with the new biomes

Oh yeah, I also need to edit my heightmaps to add the summit tile

[hallow lichen]

Why does it break when I try download maps on mobile

I did putting the map file in the save1 and the save just broke

[hasty onyx]

what's the name of the map file? If it's anything but map.wbox, such as map(1).wbox, then it won't work, you need to rename it to be just 'map.wbox'

[hallow lichen]

oh I see

that's what I got wrong

[hasty onyx]

no problem it happens

so if there's a map file in there already, you might wanna delete it, or use a different numerical 'save' file

[hallow lichen]

It didn't change

OH

it loaded the right map now

thank u so much for the help

[hasty onyx]

you're welcome

have fun

[sonic needle]

So how can i download Maps and make them work on android? I have tried different tutorial and i Haven't been able to di so

Can someone please help me?

I am trying so hard to get some achievements but the easy way of the Maps seems to be only on Steam

Oh ok i think i got it

I Will try

It didn't work

I don't have issues with the name of the save

But It Always leads to errors when i try to load it

Could It be because it's a PC-only map?

[buoyant vine]

I can already see my civs settling here

[hot coral]

Does anyone have tips for getting into worldbox mapmaking

[hasty onyx]

Use a free paint program like paint.net.

Remember that 64 pixels amounts to 1 map size value, so a 9x9 sized world, is 576x576 pixel/tile resolution.

[hybrid imp]

mhm! if you dont convert with these resolutions it may add unwanted things in your conversion

like antialiasing

[hasty onyx]

Idk whether loading a map save that was made and altered using mods on pc may run into issues

but if i had to guess, it could be that?

i usually get errors but I'm able to load a map anyway

I just close them and ignore them, and they do nothing : P

[sonic needle]

Could i find here any map that woud allow me to unlock achievements like "King of Kings"?

[sonic needle]

I do the same but then the map doesn't load

On the save i get the delete symbol instead of the World image

[hybrid imp]

theres lots of maps in the steam workshop that grant you it if you search “all achievements “ or something ^^

probably do it in a version thats not beta because 0.5 beta may have broken those maps

[sonic needle]

Yeah but i don't have the game on Steam, and i play only on Android, so should i get It anyway?

[hybrid imp]

if you have it on android then search the same thing but in #🌐map-downloads

theres a lot of tutorials on how to get maps into an android

[sonic needle]

Tried many, none worked

Thanks, i'll just keep trying

[hybrid imp]

ofc, im sure someone who knows more abt it will comehelp ^^

is there a map for 4i and 5i?

[storm elk]

you can't save statuses

@sleek wadi

[sleek wadi]

Ye?

[storm elk]

best way to do so is giant bandit kingdom loot rain and then life erase it

tho some people are lucky enough they can possess a bandit, steal with it, and it's not knocked out when unpossessed

thus letting them life eraser

[sleek wadi]

Ohhh

Yeah, I tried several times to posses and steal

@rain trout

[sweet bramble]

Yall I have a question. When it comes to adding maps the the game do I have to save the world as a specific size or will the game change it for me

[hybrid imp]

it will change for you

[sweet bramble]

Hey guys so I have another question which is why I can't add maps anymore

The first time I added a map worked I think but now even when I save a world with nothing in it and do all the correct steps on archiver it doesn't work

Is it because the maps aren't mobile friendly and if so where do I find mobile friendly maps

Also when I'm on the last step which is overriding the file in save 1-30 when I tap the clipboard it doesn't ask me if I want to overridden it just does it for me but then when I load up the game the save is still blank

What am I doing wrong?

@hybrid imp

[hybrid imp]

weird..

all you should need to do is save a world

then in your save files paste the map.wbox file of the map you want into that save to replace it

[sweet bramble]

I fixed it

It's cus I wasn't deleting the other one

And I wasn't renaming

Why do I have grasshopper role

Also

Do u have a mobile friendly unlock all traits map I could have

I did find one but when I clicked on it it was just a bunch of script

And it wouldn't load

[solemn lily]

are color palettes updated?

[soft cave]

[midnight marsh]

I was stupid. Ignore me.

[hasty onyx]

nevermind, got it. it was "summit:snow_summit"

[storm elk]

i do have pretty much all ids listed on my map converter

where can i find your converter

[storm elk]

[hasty onyx]

ah cool thanks

i'm using gloops cause i'm already used to it

and i just added the new biomes into the file

[storm elk]

Yeah mine is jank but works

allows assigning multiple colors to the same tile

biome map support

and even lets ya use plants if you want to

though the mushrooms sadly aren't able to be next to eachother

so not recommended to use thos

[hasty onyx]

wow, that's actually cool

[storm elk]

Looks a bit off thanks to the snow summit being used for sunset

gonna compare it to without plants

[hasty onyx]

cold sun 😎

[storm elk]

ye lol

[hasty onyx]

the difference is quite noticeable, especially on the sand at the bottom

[storm elk]

mhm

also map size is 200kb vs around 1.2mb lol

plants add alot to load time and map size

[hasty onyx]

oh yeah, that's true

[storm elk]

mmmm shrooms

before beta udpate it would've been a solid color

but now mushrooms can't even be next to eachother anymore 😔

Could add sand and a depth to the water

[golden turret]

[cloud oasis]

That's a pretty generic idea but thanks

[golden turret]

it does a lot idk o-o

[twilit matrix]

add a dragon

[bright fern]

@hasty onyx what's the progress on the Tamriel ?

[sleek wadi]

Sand borders around your landmasses usually make them look smaller

I personally avoid using erosion and outlining everything with sand

Anyone have a nasa computer and want to try loading my 1000x1000 world, I want to know if it works or not?

[dawn sable]

it wont work iirc because worldbox has an internal max world limit size

i forgor hwhatt it was

[sleek wadi]

@green perch accurate

[buoyant vine]

honestly feel like the little lake in the southern peninsula doesn't have enough depth, so either either turn it into a river, enlarge it just a little more or make it a major river in the region and have the lake be in the mountain

[hasty onyx]

Summerset Isles are finished,
Skyrim is finished,
Hammerfell and Highrock need finishing touches,
Cyrodiil needs a few adjustments,
Morrowind needs terrain adjustments,
Valenwood & Elsweyr are 50% done,
Blackmarsh & south Cyrod. need few swamp and waterbed adjustments.

Bro made a 9:1 map of the place he buried his victims, AND he gave us coordinates….

[sleek wadi]

Honestly deserves map maker role

I want to see more peak maps like this

[bright fern]

Are you going to include any of Thras

I'm not sure if it fits on the map

Oh and Roscrea

[pastel ruin]

Your maps are beautiful, I cant wait to see your rendition of Tamriel

[hasty onyx]

Yes, Thras will be included. Roscrea not unfortunately, I didn’t plan on including it.

[bright fern]

💔
The map will still be great

[bright fern]

Is💜 rotten going to be Canada biomw
E

Ruftrn

[hasty onyx]

💜 rotten

It’s mostly birch but it’s mixed in with Canada. Lorewise, The Rift is a birch ecosystem with a few sparse trees that kinda look like Maples.

there's apparently a mod that removes that limit tho

[hot skiff]

came here to ask how to upload my big map on steam and someone is already making a tamriel map bigger and better than mine, damn

anyway, how do people upload maps larger than iceberg?

[pastel ruin]

If you're looking to make a Tamriel Map then make one. There's definently a lack of good Tamriel maps for Worldbox.

I've been working on a Tamriel map since January that's based on the Project Tamriel/Tamriel Rebuilt gridmap. It's gonna include Tamriel, Roscrea, Yokuda, Pyandonea, the Padomaic Isles, and an tiny little part of Akavir.

[hot skiff]

i made one based on elder kings heightmap

also how do i post images here?

cant even post it via link

[solemn lily]

@storm elk silly ques, but is color palette updated?

[storm elk]

Yes

[storm elk]

https://the-official-worldbox-wiki.fandom.com/wiki/Palette

Afaik only me and igniz's (i think) map converters are up to date on beta tiles

which u can find in pins

[solemn lily]

Thanks so much 👍

[fair sierra]

Thank you, do you know what the mod is?

[balmy linden]

I do pretty much everything except for having these because its kind of weird and not sure why they exist still, legacy I guess

[sleek wadi]

I really want easier acces to those tiles

they are fantastic for some real life biomes

[bright fern]

Conquest map or mistborne?

[sleek wadi]

If I could get those inside the ~ac part of the #🔁map-conversion bot, it would replace the dirt as my tundra

[balmy linden]

all of these melt afaik

its just frozen tiles

in my convertor I just have a seperate freeze map so that you can freeze whatever you want

[sleek wadi]

They melt now?

they didn't last update

[balmy linden]

I would think anything frozen melts, then again I did find a perma frozen tile

[sleek wadi]

Crap

[balmy linden]

but maybe they're old legacy tiles

that dont unfreeze

[balmy linden]

doesnt every of these unfreeze

I suppose I can add them to my tile list and generate a converted map, but I suspect they will just... unfreeze

[hybrid imp]

i miss the legacy swamp,,

[balmy linden]

btw on your pin my convertor has linux support as well

[hasty onyx]

hope they add a coral reef biome..

i kinda like the way the swamp is now

[hybrid imp]

the old colors were really niceee they blended rlly well

[balmy linden]

oh neat, its some weird shenanigans with old tiles. they dont melt

[hasty onyx]

if shallow water could be biome logged by swamp, then that would be a nice color to go with the brown soil

[sleek wadi]

Ok, that's good

I really like those tiles but they are hard to get

[balmy linden]

ill have to add them I suppose, but maybe I tell devs to fix their game

[hasty onyx]

they're still affected by flames, earth quakes, acid, etc

[sleek wadi]

[balmy linden]

gaia should protect you right?

[hasty onyx]

just not by unfreezing them with a warming tool

[hasty onyx]

you'd think

[sleek wadi]

They aren't?

[balmy linden]

it doesnt?

well now i really am going to complain to devs

[sleek wadi]

I don't have enough cold biomes

😔

We have permafrost and that's about it

[balmy linden]

looks like fire doesnt touch them

with gaia on at least

or off for that matter

[hasty onyx]

i had gaia enabled and it did, could be a bug :7

[hot skiff]

i wish we had snowless taiga and brownish tundra

[balmy linden]

naturally frozen tiles? because the ones im talking about are technically non obtainable ingame

[hasty onyx]

actually yes becauses i find some world laws don't actually work sometimes until i reenable them or redisable them

[sleek wadi]

Someone bug Maxim to add a tundra or or cold Desert biome

[hasty onyx]

i am too.

[sleek wadi]

I use Crystal, dirt, Rocklands, and permafrost as my "cold" boimes

Not really the best

[balmy linden]

even without gaia I cant melt them

[hasty onyx]

rocklands are great

[balmy linden]

well now I gotta know does just adding frozen_high to the biome make them unmeltable, actually nvm cant

[hasty onyx]

my units were having a war, and flames popped out by one of them, and a part of snowy mountain and hill tiles were scorched and revealed

and yes, those were frozen tiles made by a map converter

[balmy linden]

probably just weird shenanigans in general

the tiles arent meant to exist really, they should be melting like the rest

[sleek wadi]

They are the only "biome" that spawns no resources at all

Even dirt gives worms now

[hot skiff]

tundra would look nice as grey-brown or reddish grass + yellow larch trees + red bushes for flowers

[sleek wadi]

No

No trees

[hot skiff]

small larches

[sleek wadi]

Short brush

[hasty onyx]

yeah like a dead grass color

[sleek wadi]

It should be desolate and really hard to live there

[hot skiff]

i cant post images but if you google tundra biome it can be really colorful

[hasty onyx]

i know, those low lying bushes

[lofty pier]

How do you make ice or part with snow impossible to melt?

[lofty pier]

I have downloaded some maps, and some have snowy parts that cannot be melted even with the power

[sleek wadi]

No trees

Hnmm

I need more real biomes

[hybrid imp]

by putting the map through a map converter instead!!

[hot skiff]

depends on where to draw the line, there is forest-tundra zone that looks like tundra with occasional trees

[balmy linden]

and then I guess I'll slap these in my convertor

[hot skiff]

taimyr tundra is pretty forested in the south

[sleek wadi]

Hmmm

[fleet grove]

doess anyone know of any maps like gorg uses for his 'every [so and so] years, something happens', like a container type thing? idk if im makin sense

[hasty onyx]

oh, 'summit:snow_summit' works for me

i tried summit:ice and it literally just gave me ice

[balmy linden]

yeah I noted that, that is permanent for some reason

is summit:snow_summit permanently frozen?

actually nvm it is either way

[hasty onyx]

i still think since summits are added, there now should be a gradient from hills, mountains, to summits

instead of frozen mountains sharing the same color as summits

[balmy linden]

summits basically exist to stay frozen permanently

and also like walls to be uncrossable

[hasty onyx]

I get that, but when they're frozen along with mountains surrounding them, they're indistinguishable when zoomed out

it'd be just a lil tweak

[balmy linden]

oh yeah this was an issue before

they had the same color as mountains zoomed out too

was made darker

[restive sinew]

They’re fr uncrossable?

[balmy linden]

supposed to be

[sacred merlin]

You are the dude that created the herzmapper right?

[balmy linden]

yes

[flint crystal]

Is there a guide for dumb dumbs on how to use it

[sacred merlin]

i'm struggling a lot using the command prompt, any tutorial or something?

[balmy linden]

what is your goal?

https://github.com/IgnizGitHub/HerzMapper?tab=readme-ov-file#usage

if its to simply convert a map using all the defaults, then you can drag and drop an image on herzmapper.exe

the rest of it is for customization, if need-be

[sacred merlin]

I try to set things up but it tells me it can't find the specified archive

[balmy linden]

did you download the prebuilt release and extract it into a folder?

[sacred merlin]

yeah

[balmy linden]

upon running the program or when extracting the files to a folder?

[sacred merlin]

It tells me that when i run the command

[balmy linden]

sounds like maybe you're pointing to the wrong location maybe?

Palette loaded in 133µs

example.png being in the same folder, frozen.txt being in the palettes folder (custom setup, theres no frozen.txt in the default)

[sacred merlin]

let me try again then..

[balmy linden]

running by command is only necessary if you're changing something other than the image input

[flint merlin]

Anyone got any good large scale irl world maps with accurate countries?
Just got a PC and I wanna have fun with it

[quick tundra]

How to get map on ios

[opal jewel]

How do I get a map on an Android phone

I have a map of the world I wanna use but can't

[stiff elm]

I converted the size of a map

And I was horrified when the mountains turned into this

Is there way to make they snow mountains not like this

[sleek wadi]

Start fixing it

Image converting normally always has you fixing it

[stiff elm]

also the coast and mountains pls😭, coasts and rivers usually turns into diamond biome jnstead of shallow waters

and mountains sometimes turned into mushroom biome

[sleek wadi]

It's one of the drawbacks of using the bot to make a map

[stiff elm]

What if we turned off other biomes except those natural biomes like

forest, jungle, desert, savanna

[sleek wadi]

You can do that, it's called ~ac

But then it becomes a whole other ballgame

Let me show you

[stiff elm]

Oki

[flint merlin]
