Okay. Here is what I think the bonus values for each continent should be:

Lakeview = 4
Gentilly = 5
Mid-City = 8
Central City/Garden District = 5
Uptown/Carrollton = 7
Downtown = 2 & +1 with Superdome(like the Throne in the Siege map)
Bywater = 4
Algiers = 3
New Orleans East = 3
Lower Ninth Ward = 1

Help Wanted

Post by Paulus »

I am interested in reviving a project for a New Orleans map I began a long time ago, but had to abandon. However, I've recently been able to convert a pdf file of a New Orleans map into a jpg file, which should make it easier to edit for CC purposes.
Here is what I have to work with so far:

Image

What I need are people who can improve upon this graphically and people who can do the technical work with xml and such. I've already figured out all the boundaries for territories and continents.

Are there any folks out there interested in lending their efforts to this project?

I've moved this thread to the Ideas forum, where you may get some more discussion about the map ;-)

Thank you, Mr Benn. I wasn't sure about posting in the Ideas forum since this is an old idea I proposed a while back before I figured out how to get this map from pdf--->jpg.

Anyone interested in helping revive this project? Is Cartooning that tough? I think I can tackle the XML fairly easy, it seems that getting the map into an image would be the toughest part

I can take a stab at it as long as Paulus doesn't mind. If not , give me through the weekend to get a rough draft up.

Okay I'll be working on the map with Paulus, so as soon as I get a draft done I will post it. Maybe we can get the two threads merged? And maybe use the original thread name "New Orleans"
