I need coordinates

[Fiaen Daphiphurr/ zhorl Thama]

i am trying to make a map of planeshift and i need concordant of things so I cam map it. I can get the maps done quicker if I get the concordant.

the first command to do this in planeshift is /pos. this will give you the section your in and an x y and z concordant.

Second I would like it to be noted what you recorded the position of. So after the /pos command say something like tree 1 tree 2 ect... sense I can only plot points any thing requiring a polygon or a line are going to be more difficult to plot.

for lines I need points plotted roughly every time the path/ line turns. I have about 20 for the road on oja 1. for polygons I need the 'corners' of them. Record each building/ tent separately like tent 1 corner 1 ect... expressly in the cities.

the basic (points) things I would like noted in wilderness area are:

trees
rocks boulders (the yellow roundish ones)
up pointing rocks
down pointing rocks
herbs and plants (please note what the plant is)
sine post
places (like the camp of the banished, likely rock ect...)

lines in the wilderness:
paths
edges ( of the maps get as close as you can with out killing your self)

polygons in the wilderness:
bodies of water
tents

points in the cities
sine post
objects (like crates ect...)
benches
trees
doors in to houses
small fount
furnaces/forges
cooking tables/ ovens Ect...

lines in the cities:
fences/railings (pleas note weather or not they are see through and if or not they connect to buildings)
edges of terrises
roads
stairs and ramps

polygons in cities
buildings (please note them all separately)
over head walks
balconies

no need to note the exact position of npcs as they will probably move in the later on

third when you give me your list please have the items listed by what object the are. So all thee trees are together all the path points are together ect... and I'll need all 3 numbers in order.

and finial pleas note what section/item you are doing on the boards so no one dose the same thing twice.

The sections:

wilderness:
Oja 1 (done)
Oja 2 (working on it)
Eagle BD road 1
Eagle BD road 2
Eagle BD outer/ fortress
magic shop and forest path

Cities:
Hydlaa main
Hydlaa east
Hydlaa winch
Oja (Akkaio/kore)
Gugrontid
Amdeneir (krylos city)

other:
hydlaa sewers
arena
caves ( I know of 2)
laanx dungeon
death realm

also if you know of a person with the adobe illustrator I,ll need to use the mesh gradient tool or something similar to do the height

Hey Fiaen, I can help you out once I'm back, and have time from school.

Also note you don't need to tell everyone the password and username. Just copy the Image URL, by right clicking on the image and clicking 'Copy Image URL' and then simply 'paste' it into your comment. We should be able to see it.

Also the username: Sunhear with Password: koreirkakor does not work for me :/

I would real like some help
it would go faster

next: BD Road 2

Why do you need to make these maps again?

[Fiaen Daphiphurr/ zhorl Thama]

i am making the maps to use in strategic/planning. how many war moves do you see with out maps? how many history shows about war do you see with out maps

i done previous maps but they were inaccurate. i based them on a screenshot but the screen shot was taken an angle over one of the entrance to the road. the further you got a way from that entrance the less deteal there was and the distance between objects further away was got more inaccurate.

the one on the wedsights do not have enough deteal. they do not show all the rocks, or trees. he plants are not listed at all. some are out dated. plus the form the maps are in on other wedsights can not be loaded in game. (yes i know the current version i have of the maps is not load able eather but its easier to convert it with my verongin.)

the end goal is to have accurate maps that can be used in game

hi

i goten the infomatiom for oja and hydlaa east. i haven goten around to publishing them. i have up dated gidelines for data colection here thery are:

I am trying to make a map of ps and want to enlist the help of the KJ for doing Amdeneir.
I am collecting coordinates then plotting them and need help for the collection step. If you want to help here is what to do.

General guide lines:

I need to know what every point goes to. For a lot of features expansively the polygons not every single point needs to be individual noted, but you do need to note when you switch categories. You can note what it is before or after the points but be consistent.

Do not use spaces. Use _ - /or some thing else because spaces will mess up data input latter on.

Post on the board what you are doing and have done so others do not repeat the work.

At least do the minimal data clean up that I ask.


Collecting the data:

the /pos command will give you a string like: >Your current position is ojaroad1 404.13 30.20 382.13, instance: 0. this is the base for all data collection (setting a key command makes the collection go a lot faster.) Before or after collecting the point(s) in main chat say what they are

there are 3 kinds of features to plot, point, line and polygon.

For points just a single point needs to be taken nearest to the center of the object as possible.

Points include:
Sine Post
trees
benches
small fount
furnaces/forges
cooking tables/ ovens Ect...


for lines points need to be taken at the start and end of the line as well as every time the line bends. The best way I found to do this say what the line is say what it is first (or after wards) (do use spaces) and collect all points for the line under that one title.

Lines include:
paths/streets
fences/railings (pleas note weather or not they are see through and if or not they connect to buildings)
stairs and ramps

For polygons (unfortunately most of whats in the city is) pick a starting point and walk around the structure taking a point about every 2 steps or every count of 2. please use side step or wall while doing this, running would spaces the point out to far to be practical. As in the line he best way I found to do this say what the polygon is say what it is first (or after wards) (do use spaces) and collect all points for the polygon under that one title. Please not it it is a guild house and of what guild, a house of an npc, or if it is another significant bulling like the tavern, library ect...

polygons included:
buildings
balconies
the boundary of the section ( in this case the city wall)
egged of tarices


Data cleaning

after collecting the data go in to your logs ( of the chartior who you collected data with) copy the data to a new text file

in the text file clean out everything escpet the line where the coordinates are (leave that whole line in tack) and the lines where you say what you are noting

separate the different groups of points and there designations by leaving/punting an empty space between groups. This is the minimal step I need done before the data is sent to me.

If you want do an extra group the data so all of one category it will really help

note the spaces in the >Your current position is ojaroad1 404.13 30.20 382.13, instance: 0. dose not through off data entery but the space in the other line dose

now i am doing hydlla main

i have carved the city up in to sections so if you are going to colect data ether do it by section or cateogory.

i post the picture on photo bucket
