Homeworld Classic Maps (currently v1.11)

[Mikali]

Note: these maps will only work if you are also running the HW Classic Rebalance (http://forums.relicnews.com/showthread.php?t=22972) mod.

Features:
246 converted HW1 maps.
Thumbnails of all the maps with their original descriptions.
All maps have been tweaked to eliminate poor performance and overlapping resource issues.
You can select a simulacrum of the original starting fleet as per the original map author's intentions. (This is why you have to have the mod installed, as well.)

Special Note:
When playing using the "Start With" option set to "HW1 Map Default", make sure to select the same race as is specified for your position--not your place in the order of players. This can be confusing, and can be seen by looking in the bottom-right corner of the level thumbnail (R1 is Hiigaran, R2 is Vaygr). I've also included a reference chart you can refer to instead.

P.S.:
Please send me more HW1 maps to convert!

This is cool, but if it's just a part of the HW Classic Rebalance mod shouldn't it be in that thread?

Thanks Mikail. Downloading as I type.

I thought the maps were being overlooked, which is a shame due to their high quality.

Nice. Only i needed the karos map about 3 or 4 days ago, i had to look everywhere to find it. :lol: Great job. now, look in completed mods for my Hw1 backgrounds. Add them to your maps. that'll really make then Canon

I don't see any links to dl the maps. only 1.51 and 1.52 and both of them only have 1.4Mb. Where is the map link?

I've had a few issues such as disappearing downloads for some of my older mods (no longer an issue since I've since combined them into a single mod). At some point since they were originally uploaded in 2006 or so, ModDB's database went through a considerable overhaul. In this case, the file was moved to another sub-directory.

Here's the new link. I've also updated the link in the first post of this thread.

[edit]
I also updated the link on my website.
