Those work. TXT files work for maps
.. edit ..just save the TXT file to your ./myseq/maps directory just like it is (don't change the extension to match the others) and the program will find and use it when you zone
I have only done this with the Veksar map, the SOLC, the ChardokB, and Grieg's maps..
Was a cut/quote from another thread.
This is the Veksar map that I got before the eq-toolbox map was posted. Notice it is in TXT form, it DOES work.

i've tryed map in txt format from toolbox for LoDN and i got a message saying i don't have map when zone in. same for Veksar. all other thing work, prog don't crash, but no map (
Get rid of the _1 or _3 from the end of the filename, or do what I did and change the code to also look for _1.txt, _2.txt and _3.txt.
did try that did not work 8(
I have taken off the _1 and/o _3 on the files, and I no longer get the "map not found" msg, but still not getting a map to show.
I may be wong I dont even use MySEQ but I remember seeing a post about this already a few times.
I think the lines are black so will not show withought changing your background color, or edit each map.
ah yes, that works... thanks
now to find out how to edit map, I really like the black backgrounds
there is another post talking about it... try searching for "Black lines map" or something like that.
From this thread.

You don't see the map because the lines are black, and so is the background. Either change your background, or change the color of the lines.
Easy way to do that is to open the file up in wordpad, and do a find/replace for:
0, 0, 0, 0
and replace it with
0, 255, 255, 255
The four 0's in the first represent Z axis value, Red, Green, Blue. Since the Z axis value comes just before the RGB values, doing a search for just ", 0, 0, 0" would mess up some lines on the 0 Z axis, so you need to include it in the find/replace to make sure you keep the 0's when they're appropriate.
If someone knows an easier way to change the lines, feel free to post it. That's a major PITA to do for every map that's come out for LDoN so far since they're all black lines. :-)
To add to that, I forgot to mention that you need to do another find/replace after that for....
, 0, 0, 0
replace with
, 255, 255, 255
That'll change the lines that aren't on the 0 axis as well. Don't know why I didn't think of it earlier when I posted at first.
Actually, you need to search for:
Search --> , 0, 0, 0, 0
Replace -> , 0, 255, 255, 255
if you just search for 0, 0, 0, 0 then you will accidentally change lines like
L -728, 452, 0, -800, 450, 0, 0, 0, 0
it will goof up the 450 (picking up the zero in 450)
Grabbed the EQ Toolbox maps and changed the file name. THey load u pbalck so I changed my backround color and everything is fine but after about 15 to 20 mins I get an overflow error and a big red X replaces my map??
Any ideas?
cww256,
Try this link and Conversion Tool have had no issues with any maps in LDON using maps.eq-toolbox.com TXT files
ccw -
what OS are you using? Sounds a little like the win98 problem talked about at great length in other threads.
Could also be a ref point outside the zone boundrys (I know Im not explaining this right), is it happening in all zones or just some? If some, which ones? There are a few maps out there with bad lines in them and they need to be edited (Greigs comes to mind) but that usually errors out as soon as you zone in.
Get a look at the overflow error and see if it gives us some clue.
