Thanks!
This got me .1%, thanks heaps mate

99.9% now

Dear SilentVex,

First the good news: checking the maps you marked for other forum visitors made me realise that missing spots in the sea wouldn't really stick out. I reran them and gained 0,1%. So now I am at 99,8%.

I asked a friend of mine with a higher resolution to make a screen. It is now 1280 x 1024 and it is a bmp. Since it is too big for imageshack, it is on a private server. I will pm you the link, if that's alright.
Hope this one is sufficient.
Thanks for your help!

I found another .1% on Istan in the south part of Zehlon Reach - couldn't tell it wasn't accounted for, perhaps my eyes are too old. This brings me to 99.5%.

Could you guys take a look at my map and help me figure out what I missed?

I appreciate the help and would like to thank you in advance.

THANK YOU!

Hello,

Sorry for the back-to-back post.

I would like to thank you for checking out my map - I apparently missed post 584 where you provided it back to me. I apologise for the oversight.

Thanks for helping me! I truely appreciate it! I can't wait to get home and open up the areas you indicated! You've saved me hours of work - I was afraid I'd have to rescrape the entire game.

Your team is fantastic! Again, thank you for providing this service!

Hi

Could anyone check my map? It's at 1024*768. I'm at ~96% and I can't see a single spot, which is odd since I used to be able to on the other maps.

thx in advance.

Thanks for all the work that has gone into this thread. Lots of info here and good maps to see where fog might be hiding.

I can see a bit of fog covering the area between the portal swirls where Resplendant Makuun meets Wilderness of Badzah, which isn't there on my map

I'm currently stuck at 97.7, and I know I need about half of Dynastic Tombs, so please don't mark any of that. The maps aren't that great for comparing, so I'd appreciate if someone could post how to make a U map in photoshop.

I've visited all the area marked on the map I submitted and even found two more areas but alas, stuck at 99.9%. I've begun remapping the entire game. I've rescraped Istan, all the area south of Vabbi and Gates of Desolation, and most areas around the Vortex.

Got it to 99.8% without aids, then used the difference method for the last 0.2.

Got it without aids... but man that last .2% was a bugger.





The thing that finally topped me off, was going out and in every entrance and exit into areas. There are little bitty spots you can miss in some areas (Kourna especially) if you don't go in and out every exit.

Congrats guys. ^_^

Hi,

I'm currently at 98,3 % and I have no Idea where the rest could be.
I know that I missed something in Gandara(the place where kormir is prisoned), and the tutorial place but I have no idea what i missed else.

Here my Zoomed out:

Corrections would be nice.
