Hi Mvgulik. :) I have a question about the black area underneath Australasia in the UFO regional zones map. Is that area truly "unmapped" - meaning it doesn't have a region it belongs to, or does it revert to North America because that area is first on the list? --[[User:Zombie|Zombie]] 22:52, 23 November 2009 (EST)

Correct, black regional area's are truly unmapped ... and (not or ;) ) for these area's the game revert, or defaults to using the first known regional area on the map. North America in the case of UFO.. Side note*1: I did some tests back than that confirmed this. And I'm pretty sure about that fact that the default area that is picked is based on the area value instead of the first area based on creation order. Probably because that is how UFO and TFTD act in cases where two regions overlap, the lowest regional area value takes precedents in those cases. Side note*2: Assuming same behavior for TFTD, or not fully tested on TFTD. --[[User:Mvgulik|Mvgulik]] 04:28, 24 November 2009 (EST)

very nice, specially those maps regarding TFTD. I've always wanted a map to show the areas for TFTD's countries :) Hobbes 12:22, 11 July 2009 (EDT)

Thanks. mvgulik


Yes, excellent work, thank you. Spike 20:12, 13 July 2009 (EDT)


map patching?
some old residue data from experimenting with the ufo maps.
don't know if there is any intrest in this. also not sure how to best post patch data.
anyway, this is a minor patch suggestion for UFO maps. offsets are for UFO-CE.

$discr = 'Regional zone patch, Extends face 19(Australasia) downwards to connecting with Antarctica zone, Removing blank regional zone'
$Offset = 0x00074FEC
$Patch = '4803.9F05.D8FF.DF01.0A00'
$Org__ = '4803.9F05.D8FF.8F01.0A00'

$discr = 'Regional zone patch, Extend face 16(South East Asia) to include some more of Indonesia. (not new Guinea part)'
$Offset = 0x00074FCE
$Patch = 'D002.F103.70FE.4F00.0800'
$Org__ = 'D002.4703.70FE.4F00.0800'
;; '* adjust face 17, removing unneeded face overlapping.'
$Offset = 0x00074FD8
$Patch = 'F203.AF04.70FE.D7FF.0800'
$Org__ = '4803.AF04.70FE.D7FF.0800'
FileEdit_Binary($hF_Read, $hF_Write, $Offset, $Patch)

$discr = 'Country zone patch, Swap face 19(CHINA) with face 25(INDIA), Triger INDIA instead of CHINA in zone overlap.'
$Offset = 0x00075144
$Patch = '5002.7802.E8FE.10FF.0900'
$Org__ = '5802.1003.70FE.10FF.0700'

$Offset = 0x00075180
$Patch = '5802.1003.70FE.10FF.0700'
$Org__ = '5002.7802.E8FE.10FF.0900'
FileEdit_Binary($hF_Read, $hF_Write, $Offset, $Patch)

$discr = 'Country zone patch, Swap face 10(RUSSIA) with 21(CHINA), Triger CHINA instead of RUSSIA in zone overlap.'
$Offset = 0x000750EA
$Patch = 'D003.2804.50FE.C0FE.0700'
$Org__ = '5802.2805.80FD.70FE.0100'

$Offset = 0x00075158
$Patch = '5802.2805.80FD.70FE.0100'
$Org__ = 'D003.2804.50FE.C0FE.0700'

I just noticed something interesting on your maps: the Hawaiian Islands are not a part of the US according to the Country map. Is that correct? Hobbes 12:41, 4 October 2009 (EDT)

Yes, thats correct. The Hawaiian Islands are not a part of the USA zone, or any other country zone, and are only covered as part of the Pacific regional zone. --Mvgulik 08:07, 5 October 2009 (EDT)

Hi Mvgulik. :) I have a question about the black area underneath Australasia in the UFO regional zones map. Is that area truly "unmapped" - meaning it doesn't have a region it belongs to, or does it revert to North America because that area is first on the list? --Zombie 22:52, 23 November 2009 (EST)

Correct, black regional area's are truly unmapped ... and (not or ;) ) for these area's the game revert, or defaults to using the first known regional area on the map. North America in the case of UFO because, Yes its the first in the name list..
