and the lower zone thing can be done easy enough.  maybe around a robot infested area or special building or something.  will keep in the storyline.  or maybe a buffer around NU.  someplace where people choose to go on purpose knowing that they will only be level X.
I have played this in a few games and found it useful, it allows lower players a place to learn how the big players play without expect instant death.

Great to hear some positive new Anti.  As said by others, a bi-weekly, howdy, still here, waiting for x, message is greatly appreciated.
Fixing the newbie challenges is our biggest problem and that is both a dev thing, a community thing, and more people in the game thing.  It all has to happen together.
and all this good news is coming at a time when I will have a month or two free to finish book 2 and start on book 3.  will Pm about that.

im not going to advertise a game that simply doesn't produce a good game for newcomers.  IF the newcomer lands and stuff were fixed , I and the people who I have talked to would have follow thru with our advertising and such that we had planned.  But it was waiting for the newcomer section to get fixed and it never was...
advertising a bad product is worse then not advertising it.  First rule of business. 

its a bug that has never been fixed.  if you die to east in NU you leave NU into a land of VERY VERY big mobs.  Run back!

2nd book is sitting on my hard drive.  finished but needs actual editing and someone on dev side to help with history

Yes I made a map.  A real map.   only 532 screen shots!   It is full sized as far as the map allows us to zoom in.  so the original file is roughly 281cm x 350cm.   Yes it's big.  I will keep the original to myself.
How can you help or use the map?
 
Use:  To use the map you can use what is posted here or send a request for a certain size and format.  The default format is PSD.  Make sure you leave me an email addy to send it too (Its too big for the forum)
 
Help:  I will gladly add de-fogged zones that you might have to the map.  There are a few gotchas that you must follow.  I want either full screen shots or the screen shot of the map zoomed in as far as possible.  Note in the attachment the red section.  This is what I can use.  So you must overlap your screenshots in this area.  Having the location in there is a bonus for me but giving me a real good hint about where your taking the shots from will be good (I suck at puzzles).  If you have a full sized area already created or build your own ill take that for sure.  But it has to be full size.  Sizing it by hand fails badly.  I tried it, it doesn't work.  you can email me data at dalewj@gmail.com.
 
so enjoy the map!  back to mining for me
 
Addition:  I have also placed a larger version of the map in wiki where you can download it.  http://wiki.afterworld.ru/images/1/1c/AfterWorld_Map_Large.jpg
 
Updates:  Both this thread and wiki will be updated with the latest version

Noticed today a bridge with missing graphics at the waters edge.  It looks like the part of the bridge's legs near the shadow under the water.  I get it standing 53.09 86.54.  It is a small thing , but it is noticeable from many different views near the waters edge.
