I've been working on a new beach map that goes west of Tulimshar, north of the current beach. Its made to integrate with these versions of maps 1, 3, and 15. Map 3 needs some more updating for this.

Looks good! It’s great being able to take alternate routes and walk around things, me thinks. The shapes of the beaches look great; I really like walking around on the current beach, and this one seems to fit just right in. (The analyzing part of my mind wonders if it is due to the water and the somewhat restricted walking area, a restriction that is easily seen and understood.)

Suggestion. Could you please make the preview images a bit smaller in size?

Utopic, wishful thinking (one can always keep dreaming). The northern road is a tad stra-----ight, I think the map would come more alive with some bends and irregularities, especially since it is on the outside of the central parts of Tulimshar.

I'll try to have two sizes in the future. (the current preview is as large as the computer I'm on can handle)

I'll look into it.

Though no extra work on my account. I can always find ways around looking at the image in the browser.

I’m finally getting around to change my java configurations to use SUN’s implementation rather than OpenJDK. I have a hunch that that will make me able to work in tiled, and in such a case I can download the map files directly instead.

Please do!

The latest OpenJDK is Sun certified and should work fine with Tiled. Besides, even the GCJ should work (Tiled is written for Java 1.4).

Updated. I removed the northern two cave entrances at Crush's request. The path is less straight as well.

If there's no more comments, I'll start porting the changes back to map 3.

I think it looks better.

Small update. The last version had some layer bugs and a random collision tile.
