R.I.P Norrath Map

[curtischoy]

norrath map was absolutely allowed. Just like nyclin said. It is just as allowed as any parser.

[Shrubwise]

I'm a little confused what you mean by Norrath map. The only map I am aware of is the in-game maps.

[tristantio]

It runs in a web browser tab instead of as an overlay, but the map app I put together about a year before norrathmap came along is still up at:

http://ahungry.com/p99-patcher-min.7z

It also handles patching to the latest p99 patch set (incase you have a copy of the game that needs to be patched or something).

Also - another reason open source is better than closed (the Norrath Map guy refused to release source code).

The thing I have has source at https://github.com/ahungry/p99-patcher

Tristanio, the link you provided is locked. Also the app isn't easy to set up. I've tried and will keep trying until I figure out how

Link is fixed - for setup, all that's needed is to add a line in settings.lisp file (look at the readme on github).

can I get a guide onhow to make this work? I downloaded the file. Do i extract it in my p1999 folder? I ran the patcher and nothing happened. the localhost444 thing doesn't work either.

UPDATE:
extracted to my p1999 folder. ran the 1 kb patcher. I patched, ran, then got some UI error.

I have been trying for the last hour or two to get this to work and nothing. I looked up the old thread about it and made sure that the settings file pointed towards my install directory but I still get the NIL error. I'm not a programmer so I don't really know what I'm doing wrong at this point. Any help would be much appreciated. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

I went to the page now that I have an idea how to edit the lisp. The instructions of what to do are not up. Did something get changed or deleted?

Is it that hard to have wiki up on ur phone while playing? I've never used a map on p99 and have never had a problem, just don't understand all this discontent over something as small as a map on ur screen...
