I considered that, but the reason I didnt do it is because those positions are always in flux. Students today wont be in a week or two.. knights will become masters.. etc.

example.. if this map was made years ago. jawfin would be eternally a student even though he is council now. It would make the map even more inaccurate as time goes on.

What do other people think of this?
What you could do is put the members who are in KR currently, just copy/paste from Rosters

Actually, you could just make it blank. Also, why would you make an map with KR names on it? Unless you wish to make an KR Clan map.. hmm!

Anyhow, what i mean by making it "blank" is put the texture there, and edit it accordingly. OR you could write an date in the lower left corner etc. (or center-top-middle, visible) etc.

What do you mean by "blank"? Also, It never crossed my mind, since I've made dozens of maps (and several clan maps since 2003). I guess I was simply paying homage to KR via a map, but.. if its not wanted then I can remove the KR stuff and make it for all of JKA. Sorry guys for possibly overstepping my bounds. :(

Please do what you want to LK, we are honored. Don't let the post of one particular person to dissuade you otherwise.

Cool, my name's on the tablet. ^^

Agreed with Jawfin, LK. :) You never overstepped any bounds. You are as talented as you said you were, and your hard work really shows. I hope I get to walk on it in person (figuratively) when I get back from summer. ^^

Don't do anything like that bud. Your map so far looks amazing. In fact, no offense to the author of our current KR clan map (which is escaping my brain at the moment :P ) but I really like the way your map is looking a lot better. The screenshots you've posted so far have been awe-inspiring, at least in my eyes.

Especially on that screenshot of the duel room where you included the KR Black Sun into the duel floor, kudos to you mate, very well done. As Jawfeh said, this is a great map, and we're all honored it. Please, don't stop , I want to be able to play on that map one day :)

Totally agree there, Keep up the good work LK, a new clan map would be awesome.

Here's a rough draft of what the areas will look like with the memberlists. Again, in editor/rough draft:

What I meant was;

By leaving one "blank" version of the texture in the .pk3, people can edit the names when we get new council etc. or when people leave. And by adding a date in the corner or something people know when it was last edited.

Your motives are irrelevant, it is how you stated it so that allowed it to be misunderstood; I didn't want him to stop over the opinions of one person, understood or otherwise.

Sorry Aki, I was coming back to delete that post - on reflection I felt it too harsh - but nevertheless back on topic, I do like having the Council members there (obviously :P) only put it in the order of oldest to newest, even if the active council gets listed first - btw, I don't even know who's oldest, all I know is I'm 4th and Fal's 5th :P.

Yes, I have already done this. The map comes with a blank (as in same texture but with no names on it) png thats used on the other sides of the object. All A person would need to do would be to take a copy of that texture and add/redo one of the other textures and name it the same at some point in the future. Of course only people with the updated texture would see it, but since that's likely to be clan members, it would do ok.

For you dualist's maybe but for us singles its the bread and butter :P its a scientifically proved fact that 99.9% of my kills have been people falling down holes... :P

I'm not one for pits either lol. Unfortunately in the one pic, thats not a pit, but simple architecture. Will there be pits? of sorts yes.. but not everywhere, and not the way you would think. But to ease your mind.. the main duel area will NOT have a pit. ;)

ill be honest LK today is the first time i come & eye this map out. it look pretty nifty man, kinda nice to see what ur doin for all of us.

i wish i could speak for everyone thats been in KR, but i cant cuz not everyone likes other ppl puttin words in their mouths, i dont know keaboards in this case, but i do thank you for u efforts man. appreciate the thought & MOST IMPORTANTLY the time that u have placed into this lil number ur makin for us. i think most of us feel kinda the same way, but like i said before im not sure. anyways king, this is very very appreciated of u from me.

PS: fellas im not tryin to make any indirect comments towards anyone in particular, or a group of ppl.
