the whole map making is interesting, um maybe there should be some kind of scout central in one of the cities where scouts hang out and talk travel, some kind of traveler pub or something...just and idea.
I am working on new models for a scout room. Maps that hang from the walls, map books and local area information/guides. These can all be added to Stalker's Maps of Tamriel eventually.

freewaydog... what map are you looking at?

Freewaydog ... we're using bethesda maps as of now, which don't show the instantly made up island of Solstheim (I guess Bloodmoon is what became of a plan to make an entire ES game in Skyrim).

But we'll draw TR's own maps in that style too, and those will include one of Solstheim. :)

Vernon: YAY!!!
Elder Mod.

For now, I'm sleeping in my lightless city beneath the waves.

But someday ... I will be back.

Oh, ok, thanks. I am just curious exactly where Solsteim is in relation to Vvardenfel.

Solstheim is northwest of Vvardenfell. Look on the map - the dark island near the compass...

Yeah, I saw something on the game's paper map. I wonder why they didn't just do Skyrim for Bloodmoon?

The scale. Skyrim is about 4 times the size of Vvardenfell. They would have gone out of business in the time it took, using the morrowind engine and CS to make skyrim. We can manage it because of our numbers...
