Except that Apple has so far cock-blocked attempts for people to submit apps written with a Flash compiler. At least as far as I know Adobe has been stopped.

Of course, that doesn't stop you from putting this up for jailbreakers if you go that route.

Adobe is a pos company with pos products, that all have huge security vulnerabilities. Opening up iphone support for flash would just bring in 8 million people complaining that their iphone doesn't work(malware).

Look at adobe reader and the plethora of viruses that people get all the time through that. And I don't think adobe has yet to fix the security vulnerabilities with their reader/acrobat products.

But great map, keep up the good work.

Just out of curiosity. Was this written completely in AS 3.0 or did you use the the stage in Flash Pro?

Feel free to check out this thread, and steal my GIF and JPG collection. I got aggravated searching for old and down map sites, so I decided to create an archive of my own. There are a lot of lost EQ Stratics maps on there, too.

Not bad - do you plan on implementing the notes at each number? Maybe as a text box that pops up when you hover over the number?

Edit: Nevermind I see them on some zones. But the idea of having them appear when you hover the number might be cleaner. And it's yet another thing you can take advantage of with flash rather than just dumping in flat text that the user has to scroll to read.

Super nice!

Love the way the three guk maps spin out towards me when I click on them!

One thing of note is that on the silversandbox site where these maps are also available, it includes what all the numbers on the maps stand for.

In some case they are kinda good to know. Let's face it, if you still need the map for these old zones, then you probably need to know what's where on the map as well.

Most of the zones I have done so far have that information in blatant text that you can copy/paste. Not all of the information has been implemented yet. This will most certainly be available and I will change what needs to be changed to fit P99 needs.

You do have a point. The reason why I added the text like that is for copy/pasting but I don't think that is necessary considering the majority of players go there for information strictly. I am still in the planning stages so what we could do is make a pop up over your mouse when you scroll over the maps individually that will explain what the numbers represent. My main issue with this was space and how I could include all of the data + maps simultaneously so this is a good idea. I was thinking just now of a comic book style dialog box that would hover above the map with the information. Hrmmm..! [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

That's exactly what I was thinking. You could store the text data in XML for ease of editing in the future if you want to make tweaks or changes. That would definitely be nice to have the text show right next to the number as a fly-out instead of having to scroll down or over.
