*******************************
With Inferis' announcement that he is developing a Magellan-style map-editing tool for the Victoria maps, I have decided to to put out a call for people interested in collaborating on a new map project for Victoria that I am calling Clio.
Now, we don't have the tools yet to begin modding the map, but half the battle in making a map mod is determining what should be changed, added, and reworked. I have some definite ideas, and have done some preliminary organization figuring out which sea provinces can be merged to free up provinces for land provinces, and am developing lists of what I'd like to see changed in the map, especially refinements in the colonial world, especially Africa, and the addition of some missing islands. But also some reworking in other parts of the world, even a couple changes I'd like to make in Europe.
I'll start posting some of my ideas (and even a couple mock up maps for some regions) in the next few days, but I'd like to see how much interest there would be in forming a modding group to develop ideas on what to improve. In the end the more of the idea work that can be done now, the less time it will take to make a new map once Inferis' development work reaches the use of the public at large.
