It's called Oceania mate. At least get the name of your map right even if it will probably never be completed! :p

As for the islands, perhaps do something like in ancient greece and circle the groups of islands.

Ok...perhaps the circles themselves can be coloured instead of the land?

i will look into that...i have tryed putting a semi-transparent colour over the top but i did not work, i might try again.

any1?

Bad Speler · Post by **Bad Speler** » Sat Feb 24, 2007 5:15 pm

well... Austrailia, Indonesia, for the obvious ones. For an unobvious one, there seems to be 5 islands at the North East all owned by the U.S., that could be a continent.

Southeastern Asia:
Brunei
Cambodia
Indonesia
Laos
Malaysia
Myanmar
Philippines
Singapore
Thailand
Timor-Leste (East Timor)
Vietnam

Ok these a part of Asia, and you include some country to Australia and Oceania.

In the case of Oceania and all the small islands, I think the most important thing to do first is playability and having it actually make sense. But if you do want to try improving graphics first, adding texture is a good way to start.

as for the islands, it might get abit cramped with all the islands
