Hey Hive, this is a map I am making available as a template for other's projects. Special thanks to: Sapprine, Hi_Vortex, Tamplier, Jixed, EmirDuad, VictorZ, Sevllanto & MWM for awesome doodads, couldn't have done it without them. This is a 480x480 map scaled as best as I had the patience for to include the areas between Dalaran, Stromgarde and Caer Darrow. Please feel free to change and/or incorporate this map into your own projects as long as you credit me as an environmental artist. So let me get to the description of this map:

1-This map is a representation of the Alterac region around the time Thrall is or has rallied the clans and fled to Kalimdor, as Durnholde keep has been burned, but Dalaran is still pristine, and Stromgarde has not yet been overrun by Boulderfists. Very lore friendly.

2-This map includes interior areas representing Scholomance and the Dalaran Dungeon.

3-This map should be completely pathed with pathing blockers, but does not include gold mines to make it a playable melee map. You will have to place those yourself if you want them.

4-This map is hopefully the first in a series, releasing WoW zones for Reforged as resources.

I don't know what else to say because it's lacking triggers and functionality. It's just a terrain template, but it's big and it's pretty geographically accurate, even Scholomance. Please let me know what you all think! Thanks for checking it out and please let me know if something is missing, it's a big map and it's easy to miss stuff.

PS if anyone has moderate triggering experience, I could use your help with some projects that have moved beyond my expertise!

A credits list in the map description with the names of the authors whose resources you've used is mandatory. That includes models, skins, icons, custom spells, systems. Also, sounds, music and everything outside this site.
This helps you with the models, skins and icons from Hiveworkshop: Resources in use by Alterac-Hive Resource
You can also upload your map here to generate a list: Asset scanner

Awaiting Update.

ADDITIONAL NECESSARY INFORMATION
  • A credits list in the map thread description is required where the names of the resource (models, skins, icons, spells, sound etc.) authors are mentioned along with the specific resource. It would be a luxury to have links leading to the used resources. Credits in the Quest Log would be appreciated too.
  • A detailed changelog in the first post would be helpful to reviewers and notify fans about the newest implementations to your map.
  • Map thread tags are important. Please use those that fit and not more or none.

Hey Deepstrasz, thank you for the reminder to update the import citation. I've updated both the map's description in the w3m and also in the Hive description, am I missing something else? Sorry this is my first submission, thank you for the patience.

Yeah, didn't realize you've put the names right in the beginning of the description. The text is monotonous looking so it's hard to tell at first glance.

Anyways, there's a lot of empty space that can be filled and/or visually diversified.

Awaiting Update.
