Easygoing Eyebeast Xaiya Posted June 15, 2008 Share Posted June 15, 2008 Is there an A5 map for the other levels (under and upper)? If not, would it be possible for someone to make one? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Well-Actually War Trall Micawber Posted June 15, 2008 Share Posted June 15, 2008 Sadly not, I asked similarly a few weeks ago and no one came up with anything. http://www.ironycentral.com/forum/ubbthreads.php/topics/96591/Underground_map#Post96591 Maybe with school exams coming to an end someone will have the time?

Well-Actually War Trall Synergy Posted June 15, 2008 Share Posted June 15, 2008 Funny, if you think about it — all of Avernum is underground. Why is one particular plane of that more mapworthy than any other part? It's all caves, really. Up and down is almost irrelevant. -S- Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Unflappable Drayk Evnissyen Posted June 16, 2008 Share Posted June 16, 2008 I think that mapping out the 'hidden' or 'extra' areas would take a little of the fun out of exploration. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Well-Actually War Trall Micawber Posted June 16, 2008 Share Posted June 16, 2008 True, it's all true. Nevertheless it can be very frustrating when you wander around for ages looking for some place, when you can't remember which tunnel to use, and isn't shown on any maps (like Khora-Vysss).

Unflappable Drayk Evnissyen Posted June 17, 2008 Share Posted June 17, 2008 That's where a strong memory comes in handy. Lay off the grass! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Garrulous Glaahk Mah Al Ibara Posted July 11, 2008 Share Posted July 11, 2008 When I find a place to be topographically tortuous (how 'bout all those portals in the lower level of the Sentinel Workshop?), I do screen grabs (Command-Shift-3 on a Mac), paste them together, add notes, etc. I did the same thing with the Honeycomb in A4. I'm doing A5 for the third time now, and this time I'm keeping notes of things I have to go back for (locked doors, magical barriers, traps) when I've reached a high enough level. I'm also keeping track of where I can buy certain ingredients (Energetic Herbs!), Wisdom Brews, etc. But these are the kind of things you simply don't think about your first time through, particularly if you've never played one of Jeff's games before.

Unflappable Drayk Evnissyen Posted July 13, 2008 Share Posted July 13, 2008 I didn't even bother taking notes on those wretched portals... I just kept taking one after another hoping it would lead me someplace I needed to be. It worked out well enough for me, and I never needed to go back... though I suppose that that map that somebody on these forums came up with not too long ago (who and where I don't remember) might come in handy should I make another run of the game.
