Random Map Scripts by Matei of Woad Creations ~ www.woadcreations.com
- Based on the original Age of Mythology maps by Ensemble Studios
These scripts give each player an Arkantos and Fortress on an otherwise typical random map. If your Arkantos dies, you lose the game, so you must try to assasinate the enemy Arkantos while keeping your own alive. These maps are best played Free For All with unlocked teams ("Shimo style") so that players can form alliances and betray each other ;). The diplomacy-style gameplay leads to lots of fun in long games with 4+ players :).
MAPS INCLUDED:
- Shimo Random (chooses one of the standard maps from the Random set)
- Shimo Unknown (the standard "The Unknown" map)
- Shimo Alfheim
- Shimo Archipelago
- Shimo Mediterranean
- Shimo Midgard
- Shimo Savannah
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS:
- Move all the .XS and .RMS files in this folder to your Age of Mythologyrm folder
- If Age of Mythology is open, close and reopen it for it to see the new maps
HOW TO HOST A GAME:
- Random Shimo should be played mutiplayer with human players, as computer players don't know how to use their Arkantos
- Host a game using ESO Advanced Setup or LAN/DirectIP
- Select Supremacy under Game Type
- Click Select Map and choose whatever Shimo map you want to play from the list
TO OTHER SCRIPTERS:
- You are free to use this script or parts of it in your own work, but PLEASE GIVE CREDIT TO THE ORIGINAL AUTHOR (MATEI) if you do so! Use a script comment and/or an in-game text message.
- If you want to edit the map, PLEASE DO NOT MODIFY THIS FILE. Copy the file and rename it, so that there aren't any version conflicts with people who don't have your edited version.
