What happened to the old maps?

[Fuguzawaz]

I have not played Blockland in awhile, and I was wondering, where did the maps go? I miss the bedroom...

They were removed and replaced with shadows and shaders.

Why would they do that? I loved the maps..... I would rather have the maps than the shaders... anyone know of a way to get an older version of blockland?

Download v19 and WHATEVER YOU DO DO NOT MAKE TOPICS ABOUT HOW MUCH YOU WANT MAPS AND HOW MUCH SHADOWS SUCK.
Sorry, but alot of people do this and it's getting on people's nerves.

There's a forum on the other side of the internet.It's an archive of older versions of BL.
But you need to register to download!
I got V19 from there.Ahhhhhh good ole bedroom. Just make sure you're not connected to the internet when it tries to find an update or it will update to V20, then V20 will update to V21 and that's the pain and trouble all over again.

Or get Blockland v0002.Crappy but it's good for nostalgic people...and it doesn't auto-update because it's free for people who can't buy the current blockland

Download Maps
It works like a loving charm, just shut the forget up about maps so we dont have to hear it.

Also Amine, why would you need it to be free? The dude has to have an account to get on the forums, so he paid for it. All he has to do is put in his authentication key on the game when it starts up.

Again, for those who are getting uppity about it, I have not played in... years.

Stop whining and embrace it.

Maps and interiors slow down development by having horribly messy code, and since those were removed, updates have been speeding up. Maps were frustrating when they didn't align to the brick grid, ugly as forget, and a lot of them felt too constricting. For example, Bedroom had somewhat little building space and the terrain outside was useless. It also encouraged builders to be lazy.

Learn how to loving read. I was in the exact same situation as the OP was one time. I didn't play Blockland for years and find that the maps are gone. You'd be in the same situation if it happened while taking a long hiatus from Blockland.

It's pretty obvious he's whining.

It's pretty obvious he's whining.

Yeah, but does it look like he's going to carry on and on complaining why maps are oh so superior to shaders.

No, but he's still whining and I still wanted to tell him why they were removed. He asked why they did it, I answered him.
