Hobbes Posted January 7, 2003 Share Posted January 7, 2003 Does anybody has the schematics/ floor maps for the alien subs? Kasey Chang's Unofficial Strategy Guide for the games has them for UFO but there's none for TFTD. If anyone has them please drop me a message. Thanks in advance.

The Veteran Posted January 7, 2003 Share Posted January 7, 2003 Sure I have 'em. I made the damn things. Let me know what you want and I'll send it to you. Though I don't much fancy trying on this computer unless it's direct transfer. MSN Hobbes? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Veteran Posted January 8, 2003 Share Posted January 8, 2003 You have TFTD maps? Cool! I guess I'm not the only crazy person in the world! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BladeFireLight Posted January 8, 2003 Share Posted January 8, 2003 you mean that not every one has TFTD maps? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alan Posted January 8, 2003 Share Posted January 8, 2003 hey, praps you should put them up somewhere for all those unfortunates who don't have tftd maps... or ufo, or apoc ones for that matter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Veteran Posted January 8, 2003 Share Posted January 8, 2003 Give me aboot a week or so. As I just told Blade in a PM the TFTD maps aren't quite perfected yet... The UFO maps can go up though. If someone tells me how! And in the realm of Apocalypse? Been there done that, failed miserably. The map itself was fine. But it's three square pages of A4 paper... ish... I haven't done any more since that. (That being the smallest mapable one!) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fox Posted January 9, 2003 Share Posted January 9, 2003 Can you take screenies in TFTD/UFO? If so, someone (or I) should just see if we can switch screen resolution on the game so the whole USO can be seen on one screen... and then we could easily just post a pic. Im assuming the maps you speak of are drawings/textpics, we should see about getting screenies. anyone know how to change screen resolution?

The Veteran Posted January 9, 2003 Share Posted January 9, 2003 I'm prettty sure you can'. It'd have to be a print screen paste job... Repeatedly...Anyway I find a top down view much more helpful. Like I said when I'm done I'll put them up. Then I'll see what I can do about screenshots... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NKF Posted January 10, 2003 Share Posted January 10, 2003 How about screenshots from the top-down overhead map? The really large ships could easily be pieced together from a few screenshots. It would still show you the basic floor layout. Getting the floorpan in the iso view is simple enough, but very time consuming. - NKF Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Veteran Posted January 10, 2003 Share Posted January 10, 2003 I already have tp down maps that are way better than anything a screenshot of the HUD could provide. Now wait until I get home!!I'll post one when I do... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bagelx Posted April 21, 2003 Share Posted April 21, 2003 Hey Fellas, so whats the situation with the maps? Veteran, are your Top down maps done the same way like the ones in Kasey's UFO guide? And what's a hud? I think that the hand-made kind is the best for general purposes and putting ina guide, the screenshot looks the best but is hard to pierce together for big ships. Screenshot from the ingame overhead terrain/map viewer (is this what u call hud?) are the worst, it's too muddled up. As for the resolution, I don't think you can change it. I use the F12 key to take screenshot and it comes out 320 x 200 x 24BPP. It's way small for nowaday res, but you can zoom in and it'll look pretty much the same as ingame.

LTNS Posted August 12, 2003 Share Posted August 12, 2003 For every size of ship there is only one layout so it's easy to remeber. I can remeber the layouts for ufos, bases, and cydonia. in UFO defence. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Veteran Posted August 12, 2003 Share Posted August 12, 2003 What the hell are you doing??? This thread is four months old! No ressurections or you'll need a necromancer yourself... :hmmm: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fox Posted August 12, 2003 Share Posted August 12, 2003 I was wondering about LTNS' really old thread resurrections. I would understand if you had some big news about the subject, but I don't think telling people "it's easy to remember the layouts" is really a good enough reason.

The Veteran Posted August 13, 2003 Share Posted August 13, 2003 If you were away for three months why aren't you just resurrecting three month old threads? Besides all you need to do if you've been away a long time is search for all the topics updated in that time and reply when necessary... I've not seen a single one of your posts that has been necessary since you came back... Now pack it in or you'll be going for another three months...

Sgt. Strike Posted August 16, 2003 Share Posted August 16, 2003 This seems an interesting topic to have resurrected, but it could have been done differently, like started over. Besides, only the USO's and the ships (terror sites) are standard. But the colonies, the other terror sites aren't all the same. Neither are the artifact sites the same. Even the same ones.

The Veteran Posted August 16, 2003 Share Posted August 16, 2003 Indeed tis true. I have a map of the top level of the colony site too actually but I never conveyed it to .bmpIt is possible to map each block of the colony sites and artifact missions etc. but I don't see the point really!

BladeFireLight Posted August 16, 2003 Share Posted August 16, 2003 you can look at the component's of all the maps using Diashiva's map editor.. allthow I like Veterans maps better because of the top-down view -Blade FireLight Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
