New Set of Maps! 2018.01.05

As I’ve been doing the quests, hunters, and more exploring in Ring of Scale, I’ve been updating my map files.  The latest full version is below.  The legends at the bottom are still in-progress, but at least it has all the hunters & their respective placeholders.

For users on progression servers, I’ve added a number of NPCs in older zones as I’ve run across them. Seems that every time I run through a zone, I can still find something that is missing!

New set of maps!

A massive set of updates to the maps that I use.  A bit of something for any EverQuest player, from Original EQ all the way through the new expansion.

Link to maps: https://www.eqmaps.info/wp-content/uploads/2017/10/brewall.zip

Overall changes:
* I moved credits/collection/raid/hunter legend info into layer 2 maps. I have a program that I wrote where I can re-generate this information. Lot’s of great info can be found in the legend, and best of all, I can add more without having to dig around editing the raw map files.  A great example of this would be for Sanctus Seru, one of the legend items says: Praesertum Bikun (1/4 Arx Key)- Timer: 3 days +/- 12 hours
* I renamed hundreds of zone connections.  Instead of “Neriak” it would say the actual zone name, such as “Neriak Foreign Quarter”. Another good example would be “Solusek B” will say “Nagafen’s Lair”.
* I reconciled all raid/hunter from original EQ through LDoN and made sure the mobs are listed in the map files and in the legend.  I am almost done with these achievements, and as I have done them, I’ve high-sunned mobs, and clarified their positions.  I am missing a few hunter locations, but I have a record of exactly which ones they are and plan on adding them.

Map files update

I just uploaded a new set of map files. Tons of label changes, zone cleanups, and even reworked zones.

The big stuff:
* Original EverQuest – added hunter mob locations to map & to the bottom legend. As I was adding them, I realized that my maps already had many of them (except for Cazic-Thule). I cleaned up all the names/colors. If I have personally high-sunned a roaming mob to its spawn location, I added a “HS” at the end of its label. If the legend has a ? in front of the name, I’m still not sure where it is located on the map. As I knock out zones, I’ll update the legends. Probably 98%+ are on the maps.
* Kunark – added hunter mob locations to map & to the bottom legend.
* Steamfont mountains – redid almost entire zone.  Why? I always ran around what I thought was an impassible mountain on east side of the zone, but I realized it you could run over it. Can’t believe I missed it for so long from the number of runs I made over to the zones in the NE.  Almost the entire outside periphery of the zone was just wrong in every map I looked at. So, I redid it all and added major mountains, along with a light grey line showing where the incline begins. Added all NPCs while I was at it.
* Heart of Fear: The Threshold – redid large portions of zone & changed coloring. Added more hunter locations based on EQResource info.
* Heart of Fear: The Rebirth – redid large portions of zone & changed coloring. Added more hunter locations based on EQResource info.
* Heart of Fear: The Epicenter – redid coloring. Added more hunter locations based on EQResource info.
* Plane of Shadows – redid coloring. Zone map looks much cleaner & easier to get around. Added more hunter locations based on EQResource info.
* Abysmal Sea – redid coloring and cleaned up geometry Main level of boat is black, upper decks and lower decks different colors.

Medium stuff:
* Added all NPCs to Butcherblock.
* Barren Coast – flipped geometry over to Goodren’s latest version, but added towers from other maps I had along with boat paths.

Small stuff
* The Forelorn Cavern – Added water near back of zone where fishing is possible (for tradeskillers looking for rare fish).
* The Dreary Grotto – Line optimized, took out over 1,200 lines.
* The Asylum of Invoked Stone – Line optimized, took out over 1,200 lines.
* The Moors – Line optimized. Dropped lines from 12,000 to 4,000. Added missing trails around zone.
* Muramite Proving Grounds – Flipped to Goodren’s geometry and cleaned up a bit.  He did great job redoing this zone.
* Kael Drakkel: The King’s Madness. Flipped to Kael, which was already clean.
* Lesser Faydark – fixed location of the zone-in to Mistmoore.
* Mistmoore – fixed location of the zone-in to Lesser Faydark.
* Western Wastes – clarified zone-in to Dragon Necropolis
* Dragon Necropolis – clarified zone-in to Western Wastes

* Lake Rathe – fixed hunter location
* Toxxulia Forest – cleaned up cat city geometry.
* Xorbb – line optimized. Took out almost 3,000 lines
* Roost – line optimized. Dropped lines from 7,300 to 4,500.
* Old Blackburrow. Line optimized. Went from 14,400 lines down to 5,500.
* Old Kithicor. Line optimized. Went from 4,800 to 3,200.

New set of maps

A new set of maps that should appeal to a wide spectrum of players.

Get the maps HERE.

Overall changes:
* Added a customized legends to all maps (lower right). When I was fixing the Plane of Mischief map I had, I noticed there was a small legend with ZUKAT 04/07 in another spot. I thought it was fantastic, except that it was far too small to read. I wrote a program that creates customized legends and generated them for every zone in EQ. The items in the legend will differ based on zone (e.g., Kedge Keep will show path to Phinny’s room, Plane of Mischief will show tips to get out of maze, icy surfaces in Velketor and Kael Drakkal). As I redo zones in the future, I’ll probably be playing with this program.
* New 0,0 indicator with 1000 ruler.  The indicator and legend are both on Layer 2. If it gets in your way, just turn off the layer to hide it.
* Hunters! I really liked how EQResource added hunter information that was below the map showing name & placeholder info for Empires of Kunark.  I thought their idea was so good, I added this same level of information to my maps for House of Thule, Veil of Alaris, Rain of Fear, Call of the Forsaken, The Darkened Sea, and the Broken Mirror.  Best of all, the hunters themselves are also included on the maps themselves so they are easy to find.
* Collections! Hats off again to EQResource and how they provided collection information for Empires of Kunark.  I liked how they specified if it was ground spawn, NPC drop, or only found on Heroic Achievement missions. Once again, I liked the idea so much that I added this to my maps as well, and added it for all expansions where collections are available: Rain of Fear, Call of the Forsaken, The Darkened Sea, and the Broken Mirror. If I’ve ever picked up a collection from a spot, I added it to my map, along with the corresponding color tied to the legend.
* NPC additions. In this set of maps, I’ve visited all the starting cities and added every NPC I could find.  Also, if the NPC was a merchant, I reviewed what they sold and adjusted their label accordingly.  Outside starting cities, I’ve added hundreds of additional NPCs, named, location information, and more.
* Zone lines. I’ve fixed a ton of zone lines in Original EQ, Kunark, and Luclin that were in the wrong place, sometimes showing them way up a tunnel or far too close.
* Succor! I hauled around a heroic druid and succored in hundreds of zones and either added or fixed the location. I’ve been tracking which ones I’ve done, and it is amazing how wrong many were.  Eventually, I’ll get them all, but this was great start.
* Lines to nowhere. I’ve run a custom-written program to remove lines in maps where the originating point is the ending point. Lines that are shorter than 2 feet are merged into other lines (unless part of building walls where I want that level of detail). To date, I’ve removed 283,449 lines from the maps I originally obtained.

New maps

As I’ve been working my way through EoK, I’ve added quite a few labels. In addition, I saw the hunter information that was on EQResource and added that as well (after standardizing colors & labeling). If you are in EoK, I think you’ll be happy with these changes.

For those on progression servers, I’ve redone a few older maps. Veksar, Shadow Haven (massive cleanup & NPC labeling), Fungus Grove, Netherbian Lair, Greig’s End, and Umbral Plains.

Empires of Kunark maps

Throughout beta, I did quite a bit of mapping.  Final versions of my maps are attached.  Lceanium, Scorched Woods, Frontier Mountains, Korshaext, and Chardoktwo are originals. Drogab is a slightly modified version of a map I cleaned up years ago. For Korshaint, I added Goodurden’s with my standardized labels.

Throughout the beta, I added quite a few hunter mobs to my maps with their locations. Final release may vary…

Empires of Kunark Maps

How big is EverQuest?

I started wondering how big EverQuest was in terms of square miles.  After searching around the internet to no avail, I wrote a small program to give the coordinate differences, calculate square feet, and then total the miles.

Grand total: 294.1 Square Miles*

*Note: Should be a bit higher, but missing a few instanced zones that I’m going to find and map.

Top 5 biggest zones (numbers are in square miles):
1. Iceclad Ocean: 20.1
2. Timorous Deep: 11.0
3. Ocean of Tears: 7.0
4. Eastern Wastes: 5.3
5. Zxeishi’s Awakening: 5.3

Perhaps after the next expansion, EverQuest will have over 300 square miles of territory.

New set of map files

Posted a full set of the map files that I use.  518 main zones, 1500+ files.

In this collection, I included maps I made:
Plane of Health
Plane of Life
Plane of Decay
Plane of Hate
Tower of Rot
Castle Mistmoore
The Hole
Tons of cleanup on GoD maps.
Hundreds of hunter locations through Veil of Alaris.

Best of all, these are all color coded to the same scheme all the other files use.
