-Prebba- Posted January 16, 2007 Share Posted January 16, 2007 I support this idea. Very useful for new players aswell as experienced. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RPGoof Posted January 18, 2007 Author Share Posted January 18, 2007 I put this into the main post: If you get attacked, the map will automatically close. You can't use it during combat. If you go in a dungeon and use the map, your 'Where Am I?' icon will not be visible on the world map. JaGeX doesn't really provide us with dungeon maps... maybe they do... I don't know.

Vhellcat Posted January 18, 2007 Share Posted January 18, 2007 I like the idea, I don't have a problem with having my map in another tab but it does get RISKY while in Wildy (where I always get lost :ohnoes: ) Also mentioned offhand was the dungeon maps, I think Jagex should allow us to have an atlas showing these areas we have been to. Good luck with this suggestion, very well put! =D> Vine is waving at me. What? What was that?! It gave me the tendril! :o Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
limpbizkit Posted January 18, 2007 Share Posted January 18, 2007 It'll be p2p/f2p because of SO many people fresh off tutorial island. Members is hard to get around too, I'd suppose. YES it is...but theres thing known as a newcomer map which is easy 2 grab hold of so i think should be P2P ONLY! but then yet again f2p would winge...

Rednik1 Posted January 20, 2007 Share Posted January 20, 2007 nice but what if you are in the wildy? :? It will work, But if you get attacked the map will get closed just like all the other stuff like equipment stat window... Reading a book, Everything!

Riptide Mage Posted January 22, 2007 Share Posted January 22, 2007 What you don't take into account with this idea is the file size of the map, the map has a resolution of 3968px by 3584px and takes 1.62 MB. Every time you would want to view the map it would have to be reloaded into the applet. On dial-up a 1.62 MB download takes approximately 29 seconds. During that 29 seconds the applet would be pre-occupied with fetching the image and the player would not be able to control his character. Which would very quickly result in death and loss of items in many cases. You make it sound like running through a few level 87 monsters is hard which it really shouldn't be at your level.

blue_star67 Posted January 22, 2007 Share Posted January 22, 2007 I like it: Support Well thought out, good pictures An Idea is that it shows you the map at 50% and you are in the centre ~Blue_star67 Trying to get a new sig...

ddaanniiellh Posted January 23, 2007 Share Posted January 23, 2007 This is an awesome idea, I used to get lost when I was a newb all the time. Loading up the World Map took forever. Would be very very useful for newer players and also for new areas added in. =D> =D> ~Ddaanniiellh : 1437 : 173Lowest Combat to 1,000 Total in F2P (23 Combat)Check me out on YouTube!

Nerixian Posted February 1, 2007 Share Posted February 1, 2007 Add Me! It sounds good! Maybey it could be member only and only on High Detail. That might work the best! See My Goal Blog Here! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
unkn0wnwarrior Posted February 5, 2007 Share Posted February 5, 2007 Not bad. Although I would personally rarely need to use it, I think it would be a good addition for my sister and some other newer players. Sign me up. As for the post above me, I think that it should be high detail only, but it should also be for all players. Members alone defeats half the purpose of implementing (sp?) it.

Prankster_King Posted February 5, 2007 Share Posted February 5, 2007 Very nice idea, and great pictures to present it.
