Well...my quick campaign mapping quickly became my first glyph hunt...
Made a giant 4:30 video, finishing the map areas, and then different glyphs every second, lol (seriously, there's like 70 pictures of glyphs I'm gonna go through and compare, lol). I should have the completed map tomorrow....

Nice, can't wait to have a look! I have been doing half mongoose rooms/half glyphs... If you have different areas then me I will personally confirm them to help the maps accuracy.

Hey, I'd like to contribute with a set of maps. I think they're clearer and are easier to read and use...
The source map was bad, though.

Screen size
A4 size for screen

Print ready (A4 size, colour)
Print ready (A4 size, grayscale)

I can resize them to any size you want, if you don't know how to do it (or don't want to do it yourself).

As you can see, I believe it's more important to know the locations in relation to the fixed buildings.
Also, every single location should be accompanied with a written description and tutorial (if there's the need) to get to it, so the maps don't have to be ultra-detailed (I'd love to have an HD captured map, though..)..

Unless you have a century-old printer, the 'Print ready' files should be print ready (talking about the margins..). If they're not, just resize them images a tad (arrr! *pirate*)..


Kay, done. :)
*Hopes the links aren't broken*

Pulse:  thanks for the contributions!  What was the source image?  I'd like to know before I post them to the gallery.

They are very clear!

The first two are great, but I think your Print Ready links are broken.
About that HD capture..*facepalm* I kinda dropped the ball a bit on that one...
I've been working on some painting projects, and the deadline is Christmas, lol.

I've been searching for days but I can't seem to find the source image's url! I have no idea where I've found it! I could give you the image, but not it's url, though....

Thanks for searching, Pulse.  Please reply and attach the source image.  I'll inspect the metadata.

Here's the "source". (?)"Source"(?) because it's not the original, because I didn't save it in my computer before editing it. I just copied and pasted to Photoshop and started working (I put it in a separate layer, which means the original is EXACTLY like that. I just don't have the original original...)

I hope you understand what I'm trying to say.. It's kinda difficult to explain. :p


I'm almost sure I got it from Halopedia, but it seams like it was taken out. I even googled for imagesize:927x1361, but NOTHING appeared.

I believe I follow you, Pulse.  There's nothing telling in either the EXIF or IPTC metadata.  Since the SGP isn't selling anything (and we're a fan site) I'll go ahead and assume the map (and other based on it) are fair use until someone informs me otherwise.

Thanks for following up, Pulse!  And thanks again for you versions of this!
