<description><p>I'm releasing a version 1.0 parking garage generator and several pre-generated maps.</p>
<p>This is a map which is a giant parking garage. I wrote the generator for the structure; 1337101 made the vehicles.</p>

<a href="http://silverspaceship.com/aosmap/screen/garage_3.jpg">map</a></p>
<p>Downloads:<br />
<a href="http://silverspaceship.com/aosmap/garage_5_vxl_files.rar">5 VXL files</a> (2.5MB) with pre-generated maps with different densities of cars vs. empty spaces<br />
<a href="http://silverspaceship.com/aosmap/gen_garage.zip">commandline map generator, includes 27 different vehicles</a></p>
<p>You should feel free to host these maps.</p>
<p>@1337101, you should chime in on what you want people to be able to do/not do with your vehicles (which are included in the gen_garage.zip) and maps which includes your vehicles (is it ok for people to modify them / repurpose them etc). For me I don't care, people can do anything they want, but since they're your vehicles it's really up to you. Also, if you have any updates to the vehicles let me know and I'll incorporate them in a new release.</p>
<p>(The pre-release version of this map was discussed in <a href="http://ace-spades.com/forums/topic.php?id=3222">this thread</a>.)

<description><p>I have posted a couple of map generators and sample maps on my website. I hope to update them and release more in the coming weeks.</p>
<p>At this point, I've never playtested the maps, since I can't run a proper server and I don't personally know anyone who runs servers. If somebody does try any of these out, please let me know how they play here or by email.</p>
<p>The two map generators I have right now are:</p>
<p>Skybridge - generates an approximation of the regular AoS map, then a bunch of brightly colored skybridges covering the map, and stairs up to the skybridges. <a href="http://silverspaceship.com/aosmap/skybridge.jpg">[Screenshot]</a></p>
<p>Caves - generates an approximation of the regular AoS map, with asymmetric terrain for green and blue, but puts a giant mountain in the middle of the map and a bunch of "caves" throughout the mountain. Screenshots: <a href="http://silverspaceship.com/aosmap/caves_1.jpg">[1]</a> <a href="http://silverspaceship.com/aosmap/caves_2.jpg">[2]</a> <a href="http://silverspaceship.com/aosmap/caves_3.jpg">[3]</a>. (I suspect this may not play well since you'll just never see each other when you're in the middle. But maybe not?)</p>
<p>I have not spent a lot of time refining the color generation for the map. In particular, when you bring up the map screen by pressing 'M', the terrain looks really ugly. I'm not sure what the right way to make it look better is, but hopefully I'll come up with something.</p>
<p>The files can be found <a href="http://silverspaceship.com/aosmap">here</a>.</p>
<p>The files ending in "_gen.zip" are Windows executables that generate the maps. If you're concerned about running unknown executables, the files ending in "0.zip" contain a sample map from the generator (which I have tested in a local server myself).</p>
<p>As to the trustiworthiness of these executables: I am an indie game developer who has released multiple free games (as windows exe files), and I am a (former) <a href="http://www.mobygames.com/developer/sheet/view/developerId,4966/">professional game developer</a> as well, so no, I'm not fucking with you.</p>
<p>(I will be posting the source code to the map generators eventually, sooner rather than later, but I'd like to fix the 'M' issue first. I'll also be posting a better file format document.)
