What do you need two lots for? There's only four left total, and I'm sure there's going to be a couple more people who want in.

I like a lot of room. But after looking at a few pics, I suppose I could take 1 lot only.

upload it and give me the link

1 lot per person UNLESS you are an experienced modeler and can fill the space with interesting new stuff. (like a 200 meter tall skyscraper or so on)

Official lots:

Also, if your name is on here and you are unable to finish, please PM me.

Glad I got into this. But its just my luck for my computer to go haywire and go to the store to get fixed. Im typing this from my laptop, and it doesnt have enough memory to hold Mod Tools. I dont know when my computer is going to get fixed, so I hope that someone is nice enough to work on my DMI project for me, which I doubt no one will do, so I might have to back out. I havent even started the project yet because I didnt know if I was going to get into this project at first. Help? :(

EDIT: Nvm. I got a call from the person whos fixing my computer. He said that something in the computer got unplugged somehow, and now hes fixed it. Im getting it back tomorrow. Horay!

You have as much room as one-fourth the area in between the crisscrossing roads. Just use the road tiles already there, and lay out more tiles if necessary to help yourself find out where you are.

Select an object and hold down Z or X or C + different mouse button combinations for different rotations and height adjustments. As they all say, It sucks to do it, But the Zero Editor docs give the details on how to do those basics and most everything else.

Is it too late to join?

I would like H3 if it's not already taken. I can't model so I guess I'll use the prefabs.

Maybe I'll do a little advertisement for my upcoming map. :)

Edit: Haha I just thought of something I could do. I could use that snazzy stairs model to make:

The Endless Staircase
Reward at top


lol.
As long as i don't use more than 25 objects that would be okay right?

Sure, that'd be fine with me. I think that I'll actually do something else though; just walking up stairs forever and ever might get kinda boring. :)
