Area south of GToB?? - Guild Wars Forums

Stc95 · Aug 01, 2009, 08:46 PM // 20:46

A friend in my guild just posted this picture on our forums and now we're all wondering what this used to be/is. The area can only be seen using Textmod and there doesn't seem to be a way to get there now. I'm thinking it used to be an old arena, but idk. You guys seem to know everything so what do you say?

EDIT: How's that picture? I think he also put the picture on the Wikia here: http://guildwars.wikia.com/wiki/GToB

TexMod tends to cause alot of graphical glitches, but there's really no way of knowing unless we know what type of mod he was using.

If it was any of the cartography mods, they're known to corrupt the map textures of the other campaign's maps, I remember the GTOB map looked like a mess back when I used it.

Iether way, the screenshot link is broken, so there's no way to tell what it might be.

The cartography mods don't change the map textures of that area, just the fog textures.

i hate how gw.dat holds all these secrets that will never see the light of day. if you aren't gonna do it, don't include it in the dat! it's like teasing somebody.

And that should be our new content, figuratively speaking.

Instead of the long wait for GW2 with nothing coming for GW1, just unlock all the data in the gw.dat file for us to explore. Be a new content expansion, of old content basically.

Here's to wishful thinking......
