Hey guys. I'm at 96.8% and I'm stuck. I know that I need to do the Dunes of Despair bonus, but I'm having a problem with that area. Aside from that, where should I go next? I'd like a map comparison, please

1024x768:

Tkonian · Apr 23, 2007, 09:44 AM // 09:44

Right, I've got to 99.8% using several of the suggestions on the Forum, however, the remaining 0.2% is beyond my ability to see, even with the flipping from My map to Full in paint program method. I just can't see what I missed.

I could use a fresh set of eyes, but I have a HUGE problem. I have absolutely NO clue how post my map on here, let alone get a thumbnail of the thing. I have several different "full" maps which I have used for comparison, but I still can't get that last 0.2%

How can I post on here please, and please, I'm a Hardware man, kindly treat my knowledge on software use as UBER noob.

Here's a comparison for ya. The red circled areas require further exploration.

TKonian - Make sure that you are running your game Full Screen and set to resolution 1024x768 or 1280x1024.

Press "M" to open your map, then hold down SHIFT and press Print Screen.

Then upload your map here

Just wanted to know if you can clean this area up anymore, and if you can PLZ explain how to get there. I've tried to get this area from the beginning and have run from every which way more times than I care to remember. Thanks in advance.

Equites · Apr 23, 2007, 05:27 PM // 17:27

Here's my map again. I touched up a lot of the shiver peaks and a bit in the desert. I also finished out a bunch of the random splotches elsewhere. The problem is I can't really tell if I actually got all that I needed to. I revisit a lot of these areas and see no noticeable change on my map. Hopefully they did "pop" and I won't have to do them over again. Thanks in advance, 99.4% btw.

Hi was wondering if someone could give me a hand trying to find my last 2.0%

Here's links to my maps.

I want to thank you Wobrak for taking the time to look at my map and helping me out. Look what I got last night. Now off to Elona! lol

I didn't have to do that luckily!

You gave me exactly the right spots, you're a pro

After walking around the map for a couple of days I finally got 100.0%!! Tnx!

I have 3 red circles left, but I've been to those spots multiple times, so I was _very_ relieved that I got 100.0% with the the 4-last spot

I couldn't have done it without you!

Thanks a lot,

Please refer to the first post in this thread for rules and requirements when posting a map for comparison.

I would be grateful if someone could take a look at my map for me.

Currently at 99.3% and still have the bonus area for Dunes of Despair to go, but I don't think that will realise the missing 0.7% on its own

Thanks in advance

puppykiller · Apr 25, 2007, 12:34 PM // 12:34

I would just like to say a big thankyou to Wobrak and everyone else who helped me, i finally got the title today

I'm at 99.4 and finished off all the spots was wondering if someone could take a look at it again.

Lord of memories · Apr 25, 2007, 07:59 PM // 19:59

Finally got it, and i just want to say I never would have gotten close without all of you here to help. I can't believe how many active people stick around to help with comparisons and general hints/tips/tricks. It's really great to see this, and makes me want to be a part of it. My lack of timeliness would b a problem with comparisons, so i believe I'm going to make a guide on all the tricks and glitches that I have found that can hopefully help other people get this most elusive title. I'll have to start on this soon, and will probably post in here for anyone to pm or just make an open thread for tricks only, and then have a discussion thread separate so they're all easy to find and look through. that's for another day, but i just wanted everyone here to know that they really do make a difference and their time and effort is much appreciated.

Equites
You're welcome.
An actual "TIPS" post would be awesome. I suggest you write up everything you can remember and submit it to RTSFirebat to see if it can be included in the first post of this thread.
Or
You can just post it and ask RTSFirebat to include a link in the first post. This is probably the better option.

Lord of memories, ahlnbep & silz
Here's a comparison for ya. The red circled blah, blah, blah...
Ya'll know what to do.

Shaddow
You're lucky I haven't deleted my 800x600 psd file.
In the future please use a resolution no less than 1024x768. Anything smaller makes it difficult to give you a fair comparison because alot of details are lost.

chris_nin00 · Apr 25, 2007, 11:41 PM // 23:41

99.5%

Thanks
