So I was looking through my maps folder, and discovered that I am missing some map folders.

specifically map folder :-

- Map12
- Map14
- Map16

a) Am I the only one that's missing these?
b) Is there a list somewhere on eechcentral.com that has all the theatres listed?
c) Is there somewhere that I can go to get the ones I am missing
d) Am I asking a dumb question?

Aditionally. Does anyone know if to join a server you have to have the same map in the same map folder as the server? Or is the game smart enough to realise that you (for example) want to join the taiwan campaign, so loads the taiwan campaign.

e) Could this be a cause of crashing on trying to join a campaign?
f) Should there be a "standard format" for the maps directory?
g) Is there already?

Hey Mapi,

Thanks for listing these. Been trying to figure this out for too long. Do you have the Mars map? It's listed in the generic map list as #12 (which I've read is obsolete), but I've never seen it. And the Mesa map. Has that one been released?

I'd lean toward the map list not even being necessary for 2 reasons. Firstly, not all the maps I had folders of were even listed in the map list. Secondly, when I realised some of them weren't there, I deleted the list from the folder to see if the selected map would still load. It did.

AMRAAM's got excellent questions regarding whether map #'s and order make a difference or not. If the map list is in fact obsolete, my guess is, the game deciphers which map you actually want, by looking at the folders and determining whether or not that map is available. But, of course, I could be wrong.

I added that list (posted by Mapi) to EECH Central.

It is obligatory to have the same pathes (from EE's root) to the campains and skirmishes to multiplay.

I have slightly different maps numbering:
Puerto Rico is number 16, not 18
Number 22 is Lake Powell
Map Norway is different from Kenai Peninsula and has a number of 35
Jordan Dead Sea has a number of XX (sic!), not 19

How are they numbered in megapatch?

So it would be advisable to settle on one "correct" map directory structure. Does someone who has many maps want to list this? Or is this done as part of the "Megapatch" as FireBird asks?

Perhaps Gotcha (is it he who maintains the "all in one") could tell us if all the maps are in the all in one?

I Rename Norway map 35 because EECH have a bug! In some Map numbers I has desert seasons or conversely! The season programmed Gotcha.
Puerto Rico is map 18
Number 22 is Lake Powell because before it was in the main menu default not desert season.
In soome map numbers EECH not Recognizes it!
Although I change it i the mapinfo.txt

#general map info
season=4 # 1 = default, 2 = summer; 3 = winter, 4 = desert
contour=-1000,-0.0001,250,500,750,1000,1500,3000,5000 # 9 contour intervals for 2D map
dry river = 0 #dry rivers for desert campaigns: 0 = flowing water, 1 = dry

@Maverick -
Thanks for the heads up. Your maps are certainly among the best.

@AMRAAM -
Absolutely correct about needing a universal map structure. Found out the hard way today that when I changed the map number in a saved campaign that several of us played a couple of days earlier, Griff couldn't join my game 'cause I had fiddled with the map structure that was originally downloaded with the AllEACHMod. They worked fine for me on singleplayer but if a joining player's ----.chc file doesn't match with the appropriate map number, the joining players game gives them an error.

Definately a need for one directory structure posted in the EECH Central wiki. Thanks Kassie.

Kassie,

Map list looks great at EECH Central. I think there's one missing. Kenai Peninsula and Oslo (Norway) are not the same map. That would give us one more map #21.

Certainly! Thanks.

Can you verify it once more. To be sure?

What do you mean with "default" (see Mars). Ain't "summer" the default texture?

Look the mapinfo.txt
can you see season=1 is default

#general map info
season=1 # 1 = default, 2 = summer; 3 = winter, 4 = desert
contour=-1000,-0.0001,250,500,750,1000,1500,3000,5000 # 9 contour intervals for 2D map
dry river = 0 #dry rivers for desert campaigns: 0 = flowing water, 1 = dry

It's actually called Norway and you can find it from the link above in the 3rd post (Mapi's).

should be fixed in the next version. now the season gets stuck on the first campaign that you choose. It doesn't happen when you load all the way into the game though. But I fixed that particular bug. I am making a new allinone patch and norway is map 20 in that one!
