Legacy Maps?

[HolyRane]

I haven't been online in a while, and out of curiosity I was wondering if there is any way to view the old maps in game. Personally I would love to go back to Sanctum, Zeal, DG, Bastion to relive a few short moments of nostalgia.

I beleive Baston still exists but Idk about the other maps

The plan was to release this with the new lobby but it turned out to be a massive project and was pretty much forgotten. Pretty sure @Kainzo has all the maps saved and building wise it could be done in day or two. Not sure if there are other issues stopping us from doing it.

any updates on this?

When and if things die down - the map size is massive. Talking 1-3GB, so bandwidth costs would be high to just provide a straight DL link.

The downloads won't be free, if we do offer them up - to cover hosting costs, etc.

And where do you access it? I'm curious to see the previous maps now that you mention the idea.

There is a Old Version of Bastion ( I think ) loaded up on the Architect Server, but this was before we switched to Aegis and Idk if it still exists

I'd be up for that tbh, would be awesome to go back to some maps.

All maps exist and are archived save for Map #1 (This map saw maybe 1000~ people) so none of you could even remember it.

They're not asking for downloads, they're asking to go to them in game...

I skim posts sometimes, as stated, the server already exists but is whitelisted (the dynmap server has all the maps atm)

I still think having the ability to purchase a map download would be awesome.

If you're talking about the livemap in Resources, I found out about Zolaria like a week before the announcement showed the photo, lol. It really is useful but I get the impression that only few people use it...
