Treasure Hunter's Map - minimod

[Bild: xPWuvP1.jpg]

This small modification will show on the maps of Argaan the locations for the collectibles in ArcaniA:
- crosses = scrolls that start the quests
- yellow dots = Innos (The Statuttes of Lord Dominique)
- red dots = Beliar (Hatred's Reaper)
- blue dots = Adanos (Ancient Relics)
- green dots = graves (The Forgotten Graves)
- white dots in Swamp = Cobwebs
- white dots in Thorniara = Meteoric Ore

Also, the undiscovered surface areas are now in color.


This mod is based on televator's interactive maps:

How to install: copy the 'textures' folder to your Arcania\data folder.
How to uninstall: delete the Arcania\data\textures folder (assuming you don't have other mods put in there).

Updated to version 1.5
List of features in the first post.

Also 99.9% of the marks have been verified in game; they should be pretty final I think. 30 for A, I and B each and 31 graves. Without counting the scrolls that start the quests.

I'm open to suggestions about other things that might be added.

[televator]

uh, very nice work...
shame I already finished the game. would have been handy.

If you wouldn't had finished the game, I wouldn't had made the mod.

Nice mod! Works fine too.
One suggestion if you can do: can you make the dots disappear when relic is picked up? Gets confusing at the end which one you found already and which haven't.

They are Marked on the Map, not possible this way.

A new mod would need to be made with in-game quest system for marks and I don't think anyone knows how to do it for now

I understood the game is pretty tubular, once a region is visited and quests completed, you can move on, nothing new will appear.
But it's a nice idea and would be pretty easy to implement (that is, once you arrive on the map on the same spot as the relic, it will disappear, unrelated if you collect it or not) if the undiscovered area image would have the same resolution as the discovered one (128x128 vs 2048x2048). And if the range around the hero that uncovers the area could be customized.

Is the interactive map incomplete? There are less then 30 spots/artefact listed...

Don't know if televator updated his map, I guess you could ask him.

Nope, isn't necessary. The treasure hunter's map mod is complete, corrected and improved. Thx.

What about adding on more feature - should it be possible to add to all collectible items the '!' - exclamation mark sign, as is used for other quest items? It would be much better than just spots on a map. It would also help a lot, because these mars will be shown only for not-yet-found items.
Thanks

Afaik, not possible with the current modding level of Arcania. If an item is displayed on the map or not (as an exclamation mark or something else doesn't matter, that's just a small image that can be changed) is determined by the game through some routine that I have no idea how to control. Or maybe it's a value in item's properties. Don't know.
