EET Worldmap / Areas reference


Recommended Posts

This topic has been created to provide an up to date worldmap and areas reference for EET and compatible mods. While the EET itself is fully compatible with the BP-BGT Worldmap, it also comes with it's own unique worldmap that covers all supported games, generated on the fly during EET installation, using areas, links and strings exported directly from vanilla BG:EE and BG2:EE maps. Keep in mind that coordinates for BG:EE areas are provided externally.

 

Whole game is using a single worldmap that doesn't change even in ToB (worldm25.wmp is not used at all). Same is true if you are using BP-BGT Worldmap. The map itself is basically BG2 and ToB maps merged together and expanded with areas north with BG1, SoD and Icewind (used by unreleased optional IWD-in-EET mod) landmass.

 

When it comes to BG2 and ToB areas it allows for cross-platform modding without separate script blocks for patching EET Worldmap. Modder can use same weidu code as for SoA/ToB worldmaps, by simply assigning additional X and Y coordinate correction depending on the platform. BG2 and ToB icons have the same numbers as in vanilla BG2:EE. BG1 icons also preserve the numbering, but you need to add a starting number correction, if you want to use the same code for worldmap patching between BG1 and EET - more information in the mod documentation.

 

Example code for setting up platform specific variables:

ACTION_IF GAME_IS ~eet~ BEGIN
  OUTER_SET wmp_xCoord_SoA = 0 //in relation to BG2/BG2:EE WORLDMAP.WMP add 0 px correction to X coordinate
  OUTER_SET wmp_yCoord_SoA = 2283 //in relation to BG2/BG2:EE WORLDMAP.WMP add 2283 px correction to Y coordinate
  OUTER_SET wmp_xCoord_ToB = 893 //in relation to BG2/BG2:EE WORLDM25.WMP add 893 px correction to X coordinate
  OUTER_SET wmp_yCoord_ToB = 3011 //in relation to BG2/BG2:EE WORLDM25.WMP add 1681 px correction to Y coordinate
  OUTER_SET wmp_mapIcon_BG1 = 29 //in relation to Tutu YAC22MAP.BAM add 29 cycles correction to map icon
  OUTER_SET wmp_mapIcon_ToB = 85 //in relation to BG2 25MAPIC.BAM add 85 cycles correction to map icon
  OUTER_SPRINT wmp_worldmap_ToB "worldmap" //when editing ToB worldmap use WORLDMAP.WMP instead of WORLDM25.WMP
END ELSE BEGIN
  OUTER_SET wmp_xCoord_SoA = 0
  OUTER_SET wmp_yCoord_SoA = 0
  OUTER_SET wmp_xCoord_ToB = 0
  OUTER_SET wmp_yCoord_ToB = 0
  OUTER_SET wmp_mapIcon_BG1 = 0
  OUTER_SET wmp_mapIcon_ToB = 0
  OUTER_SPRINT wmp_worldmap_ToB "worldm25"
END

Example usage from Almateria's Restoration Project for both EET and vanilla SoA worldmap patching at the same time:

ACTION_GET_STRREF 61301 GrovName
LAF sc#addWmpAre
  INT_VAR
    mapIcon = 16
    xCoord = 1095 + wmp_xCoord_SoA
    yCoord = 660 + wmp_yCoord_SoA
    tTime = 2
    inclSv = 0
    visible = 0
    reachable = 1
    visited = 0
    visibleAdjacent = 0
  STR_VAR
    areName = ~ar2700~
    strName = EVAL "%GrovName%"
    strDesc = EVAL "%GrovName%"
    worldmap = "worldmap"
RET areNum = areNum END

Below image (art by Kirara) shows the EET Worldmap as a whole and can be also used as an Area Reference for EET content and all supported mods. If you compare the map with actual Faerun continent maps you will notice that in order to provide focused presentation of the visitable areas default EET Worldmap ignores part of the landmass – there is a jump from Delimbiyr River (near Daggerford) right to The Spine of the World. Without this there would be a lot of nothing in between. Initially the map was meant to end on Delimbiyr River (which would cover all space needed for SoD) but has been expanded with The Spine of the World, in order to support upcoming IWD-in-EET mod (its inclusion is also justified even in vanilla game due to TotSC Ice Island where you're teleported from Ulgoth's Beard).

Reference image will be updated whenever new mod that adds areas to worldmap becomes compatible with EET and author decides to make it support EET Worldmap too. Hopefully this will make it easier for modders to assign icons without worrying about compatibility with other mods.

The map looks wonderful!

 

I have a question, though: let's say I will want to play just the BG parts of the game, and IwD parts are completely optional as I understand. Will the map look different in such a case? I totally understand your approach with cutting the Faerun parts with Waterdeep, Neverwinter and Luskan, but when playing without the IwD content this northern parts would seem redundant.

 

Cheers!

 

PS. Also, Athkatla and Baldur's Gate look drastically different on the map. Would it be possible for the city of BG to have a similar rectangle for the districts? I think this was already done in BGT-Worldmap mod.

It's extremely laborious to patch the worldmap.wmp file. It's better to try to one one picture file for everything, and then add/remove places based on that.

The reason why is coordinates, the map has to start from somewhere and you can't put places where there's no map space.

see that BG1008 place without icon in the upper west corner? That's the maze island from vanilla Tales of the Sword Coast. There you go, the northern part is not useless :p

the map is currently being worked on by Kirara. Among other changes in new version Baldur's Gate will be presented in an external frame like Athkatla.

I'm currently at work, and quoting doesn't work for some reason... huh...

 

Anyhoo, K4thos, thanks for more info, mate!

 

Wicked, I was so overwhelmed by the beuaty of the map, that I didn't noticed the maze island up there in the Sea of Moving Ice. Well, I will get used to it nevertheless. And maybe I will combine my playthrough with IwD. This whole gaming experience seems so new and exciting to me. I wonder how the Siege of Dragonspear locations will look on Your map (think I already see the Boareskyr Bridge). She'll be right.

 

:thumbsup:

Wow, that worldmap looks amazing. Makes me want to try out EET!

 

Some comments on the IWD areas:

  • ID2000 (Kuldahar Pass) should in my opinion be closer to ID2100 (Kuldahar). I realize it has a travel distance of 8 hours coded in the original game, but I've always considered that a bug. The in-game lore tells us that the circle of warmth radiating from the Kuldahar tree normally reaches Kuldahar Pass (and it does in IWD2 - it's just that in IWD1 the tree is weakened due to main plot reasons), and that the farms there are usually worked by Kuldahar villagers. So a travel distance of 30 minutes, with appropriate worldmap placement, would be more appropriate.
  • ID3000 (Vale of Shadows) should be a bit closer to Kuldahar as well. The in-game lore tells us that it's the only other worldmap destination which Kuldahar villagers occasionally visit by themselves. (Also, think of Lysan who works as a barmaid in Kuldahar but does secret evil stuff in the Vale of Shadows during her spare time). It's not a large vale, so placing it in between some of the little peaks in the Spine of the World would do fine.
  • ID6000, ID7000, ID8001 (the three Dorn's Deep areas) should probably be closer together and a bit farther away from Kuldahar.
  • ID5000 (Severed Hand) would be much more iconic and easier to recognize if its picture showed a sketch of the actual tower, instead of the bridge at its base.
    EDIT: This stylized map from the "Survival Guide to the North" PDF manual that comes with IWD:EE, includes a depiction of the Severed Hand tower that could be turned into a map icon.
  • ID9500 (Gloomfrost) is shown on top of the "Kelvin's Cairn" mountain, but this Forgotten Realms map places it farther away. The original IWD:HoW worldmap does make it look like Gloomfrost is on Kelvin's Cairn, but that map is more artistic than accurate, and one might also interpret Gloomfrost to be behind Kelvin's Cairn on that map, the same way that Easthaven (ID1100) is behind the mountain it's painted on in the original IWD worldmap. I also vaguely remember it being suggested in the game that the Gloomfrost is farther to the East, but I'm not sure anymore. Will have to keep a look out for relevant info on my next HoW playthrough.

Just exit due east at BG4900*, yeah it's no exactly where the map "says" it to be in the map, but so what... you should only see it after you go into the Ulgoth's Beard, and meat the salesman*, after Belt send you there.

That was exactly my issue. I saw it on the map as unreachable, after going to Ulgoth's Beard, and I spent 30 minutes trying to figure how to get there. In the game, it's 3 maps east of Beregost, but on the map it shows in a completely different place. It's not even anywhere *near* where it shows on the map. Another easy solution would be to unlock fast-travel to the tower right away when you're told its location. Or unlock it for fast-travel where it shows on the map in addition to its actual location, if modifying the map is too much work. It should be fixed in any case, no?
