List of Better Maps

Post » Wed Sep 01, 2010 12:26 pm

**********************************************************************************************************
I decided to install for the first time mod created by user in my game. But after a long search on PES and TES Nexus... i downloaded nothing, there was to many mod, and i dont know wich one is good, wich one is balanced. But i found a loot of map mod. So i made up a list. I am alway searching for wich mod i should install. Right now, there is only a map mod that i will maybe install, since it dont change the gameplay, so it is balanced.
**********************************************************************************************************
How to use the list: To see a preview of a map, simply click on the name of the mod. To download, click on the source, at the moment, there is only 2 source, check the legend. But beware, some mod have more than one map, but i just put one screenshoot.

If you like the style of the map but not the color, go on the mod page, like i said, some mod have some map variation, that let you choose betwen 2 or 3 map, same style, but different color, or other detail like hieght. There is also some shivering isle map mod that have variation like one just colored... and one with with map separated by demantia and mania.

If you like the style, but there is just a detail you dont like, take a look anyway, there could be a variation that suit you.

**********************************************************************************************************

Bored of the old local map with no color?? Then get it in color in few step, no download

Go to your oblivion folder, the one where you installed the game. Then switch the blocalmapshader value to 0, in oblivion.ini. Start the game, and enjoy.

If you own any of these map, and want me to remove it from the list... just ask
Upcomming update to the list: Add creator name, add upload date. I will also add other map mod, that people will find

I am not sure which map would let me play with NEW ROADS AND BRIDGES, the mod, appearing on the map.

If you don't mind the Elven map style then ADParker's http://www.tesnexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=31273 include New Roads & Bridges Revised on most of the maps. There are tons of combinations for which mods you have or not.

http://www.tesnexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=31273 of 7! The rest are on that page. Providing you like the Elven map, it pretty much supplies all your needs, except for Open Cities Reborn for anvil, but that was only released this morning!
The maker is AKA Vargr here as BSF, and there a http://www.gamesas.com/index.php?/topic/1088880-elven-map-compliation-1-2/page__hl__vargr somewhere....

Asgard, the merged maps link you have is outdated. Version 1.2 http://tesnexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=26329.

And since we're on the topic of maps, everyone should be using http://tesnexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=26389

Yup, I've used it with both Merged Maps and then the Elven Map Compilations after I switched for New Roads & Bridges Revised and West Roads.

No sorry what I mean is after I got New Roads & Bridges Revised and West Roads I switched my map mod from Merged Maps to Elven Map Compilation because Merged Maps does not include New Roads & Bridges Revised or West Roads but Elven Map Compilation does.

Here's one that is a little different: http://www.tesnexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=10441. When I was using it, I paired it with http://www.tesnexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=10081 to at least keep the color scheme.

http://tesnexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=23140 is missing :( How come you didn't see that, it's right next to Cyrodiil Terrain Map on TESNexus...
Also, http://tesnexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=14390 (which you can use as an ingame map, but only after saving it as a .dds and resizing it - I'd put it in your Misc section, or the Modders Resource section)

And yes, pretty good idea for a list!

Cyrodiil map addition, is a map for mod... so later, when i will do the Map Cyrodiil + mod, it will go here

And for Ginormous Cyrodiil map... it will go in the: Map for Print section

right now, i will stop updating this list, for maybe 3-4 day, but soon, i will add the 3 remaining section: Map for print, Map designed for mod, Good combo Cyrodiil + shivering map

the combo section, will not contain new med, but the one already posted.

in the combo section, we will try to find what map look the best together, like Elven Map For Shivering Isles + Elven Map Redux

Thank you for this comprehensive list which, I am sure will soon be as complete as possible.
I like mods of maps, often switch them and this will help me to have more fun without losing too much time :D
