Need Help Making Maps

Hey Everyone,

I'm still slowly updating the wiki, but I need help with a project that I don't have the programs to make. I keep getting more and more requests for mob locations or npc locations and I can't really help anyone other than say xyz mob is located in Lir's Reach or abc npc is located in Farcrag Castle. So, that is where the community comes in :) . I need help making new maps. My thoughts are to use the existing maps in game, except make one small change. If we could add a grid overlay to the maps, I would be able to help pinpoint every mob and npc in game. With a grid overlay I would be able to say Kelpie Wisehoof is located at Otherworld Sector C-9 for example or Tasty Stormclaw spawns in sectors B-8, C-10, J-4, etc.

If anyone can help I would greatly appreciate it. We are getting very close to finishing the wiki. So, if any of y'all are bored out there, this is a great project to work on! :)

Is this what you're talking about?? Right now only Lirs done, but it shouldn't take too long to do all of them

Edit: resized to best ability so it wouldn't interfere with the rules, but I think it still does. Also, I'll pm you the maps if you like them. If you do like it, pm me just in case I forget to check this.

Hey Agentyamski,

This is exactly what I am talking about, Thanks!

Is there any way to make A, B, C, D, etc. vertical on the left side and the numbers above the map? Just thinking what is easiest to read, A6, B8, etc. I know this may sound picky, but is there any way to move the grid over slightly so places like the Crossroads and the Northern Peninsula fit into just one cell? It's going to take some tweaking, but this is definitely on the right track to the idea I had in mind. It's a shame there isn't a single map out there without the pesky ! and ?'s littering the map. Definitely a great start, though. I appreciate the help!!!!

Yup I can do that, just a simple minded paint photo that's been cropped a bit.
