I'm looking to collect maps of old 8 & 16 bit classic, as I will soon be going somewhere with terrible cell phone reception and no fiber for a week. help me out here fellas. shoutout to the anon that posted this zelda map the other day. also discuss what games have the best maps or something
>>10885913if anyone could drop a sick zelda II map, I would be eternally grateful
>>10885950or one for zelda 1 second quest.
>>10885961this one is gold. gonna play through SM again with this. maybe I'll get 100% item completion for one. thanks, anon!
>>10885913You can get through the Zelda games pretty well even without a map but games like Ultima Quest of the Avatar or even Exodus are damn near impossible without them. I've been playing them for decades and still get lost.
dont know if this counts as retro but it is a map
>>10886019>>10886026hell yeah! metroid 1 and 2 maps will be mad helpful. I prefer the look of the originals to the remakes, but got lost as hell in both when I first played. thank you!>>10886012OG rpgs on pc are admittedly a blind spot for me, but I've heard that they're crazy in depth. might try to tackle one of the ultima games one day.
>>10886068
>>10886009just fell down a mini rabbit hole looking into Jetset Willy. gonna have to rig up a speccy emulator and give this one a go. I think theres multiple games right? anything I should know about them?
>>10886081>anything I should know about them?yes, the vanilla version is broken and unbeatable :^)
>>10886063Ultima Quest of the Avatar is playable on an NES emulator, you don't have to mess with any DOS-based setup on a pc or anything. I'd say it's well worth playing but maybe not worth trying to beat. It's really fun for the first few hours. It's too hard though. Stealing a pirate ship after they appear around level 5 really opens up the game. Dragon Warrior 1 is also on the NES and very accessible even though its so old. All the Dragon Warrior games are good, according to what I've heard but I've really only played 1 until the end. It's a long grind near the end but totally beatable.
OP you might appreciate this old booklet famitsu published with a bunch of maps of classic gameshttps://archive.org/details/rpg-world-map-collection-booklet
Branmarker for PC-98
>>10885968Damn that’s sick.
This game is technically 32-bit, but the map is made by joining tiles, just like the other ones, so I'll post it anyway
>>10885950wouldn't you rather wait for it to get better before you use it
>>10886597It's missing one tile with a hut in the SW corner. This is where you meet the mermaid.
Kingdom of DrakkarNork world map
Nork -3.5, Minotaur lair
>>10886000Very nice
I don't think you were expecting this one
>>10885913Is this kinda thing acceptable?
>>10887361
>>10885968Home
>>10887359I wasn't, the thumbnail makes it look like sheet music kek
>>10887984How the fuck are those not maps?
>>10885950zoom for details
>>10887359definitely wasnt lol, but I fucking love this. which ports does this map work with?
>>10888114this is absolutely perfect. Sincerely thank you, anon.
>>10887984Quit shitting up the thread mang
>>10888114>zoom for detailsI'm going to zoom in and see Piccolo Dick hidden somewhere in the map, aren't I?
>>10886183I love old stuff like this. I downloaded the pdf. maybe I can get an ai to translate to gaijin speak for me lol
>>10888135As far as I'm aware it'll work with all of them as there weren't any revisions.
Who else saw this for the first time when looking at the Circus tent glitch?Link for full res (10MB):https://starmen.net/mother2/maps/fullmap.png
>>10886005Unrealistic American Town. In reality these buildings would all be a mile from each other and the roads would be four lanes for no reason with no sidewalks
>>10888114Neat!
>>10885913Basically a 16 bit game even if it came out on a 32 bit console
>>10885913Anon, admit it. You saved that picture after I posted it in that other zelda topic from last week.
>>10886026I played this game as a kid and it took forever to beat. A map would have helped me out so much.
>>10886072Looking back on this map, it makes too much sense. Things should have been more disjointed, confusing, and nonsensical, considering well, you know.
>>10885913Go to vgmaps.
>>10887210Happy now?
>>10892410Now this is gaming.
>>10892385the first MM game I ever completed, couldn't get into 1 & 2
>>10892385Yep. Thank you.
>>10893127The whole Sorcerian series is great. Sad a lot of them never made it to the western world prior to birth of emulation.
>>10891008>shoutout to the anonYou can't fucking read can you spastic?
I have some that aren't quite 8/16-bit, but the Morrowind one is here, so, you know. The more the merrier.Map of Mudos, from Oddworld
Talanzaar from Outcast
Star Control II
Star Control II, with faction zones (spoilered because you should really play this game if you haven't, it's a really stand-out /vr/ experience)
Link to the Past (light world)
Link to the Past (dark world)
>>10885913Alternative Legend of Zelda map, I assume from the manual
>>10885913Alternative Legend of Zelda map with areas of interest labeled
Baldur's Gate zones stitched together to show how they blend into one another. Unfortunately this one includes the two Enhanced Edition zones in the lower right
And just for fun, the above Baldur's Gate world area, but modeled in the style of Heroes of Might and Magic (or so I read)
>>10891008hell yeah I did bro. thanks for posting that it's really cool
>>10895757
>>10896402Wow, cool idea. It's not to scale though, sadly (the snowy area is about 3-4 times further north from Baldur's Gate than what is shown here). Maybe adding zones from Neverwinter Nights would have filled in some of the missing gaps, although it would also not be consistent with the approach the mapmaker here was using. Saved though, thanks.
>>10893131I feel u man
>>10895441This is 4chan. Nobody reads!
>>10885913>MAPS!FBI OPEN UP
>>10885913It's definitely nicer than what I found for the 2nd quest of the game.
Oh cool a good thread on /vr/! http://www.1up-games.com/nes/solstice/map.htmlalso the one in my attachment.
>>10895759This is cool!
>>10895748>>10895750These are great. Gotta any of the dungeons?
>>10900029I loved WL3 as a kid, but was never able to finish it. now I know why, it was definitely above my pay grade lol. Thanks for your contribution! my map folder grows ever more powerful
>>10898829I said maps, anon, not M.A.Ps! This is an abuse free thread!
>>10901203holy shit why did that turn into a hyperlink?? to reddit of all places??? wtf is goin on jannies?
Zelda 1 main quest's dungeons combined.
>>10901207Fedniggers glow harder than my trinitron.
>>10891025yeah that doesn't look anything like the playthrough I watched.
