The european map is nearly finished and we included most countries from which we had geodatas from. We got geodatas for the US (and other parts of the world) already and we will keep on working for a worldmap now.

As a matter of fact, we create the maps ourselfs as we don't want to get into troubles with any copyright. That always takes a little while... :o

As this is the first mod which Robert and I made (Robert is very soon going to register aswell) for vB it would be nice, if you guys find anything we need to know (like how to make what better and so on...).

If there are other european countries needed then let us know and we will do our best to upload them as fast as we can.

Oui monsieur, la carte du france existe aussi. :-)

The problem is, that we do not really speak French,
so your users have to be able to speak (some words) English...

We will upload the other maps (Spain, Norway...) as soon as possible... :D

We just started with the countries, the AddOn is quite new and we just finished this (stable) version. We now concentrate on the maps, UK will be next.

Yeah, I know. Seems to be a hard way for us to go... :o But we'll work on it, step by step.
Is it possible to get the Psd's or something so the countryname isn't german?
I saw that the maps within the AddOn aswell as the maps within the BeNeLux-pack still contain the name of each country in german, we'll fix that and remove the name of each country so that it will fit to the rest of the maps.

Intresting question... :-)

But I think this woud be really tricky. - Why?
We would need a table with (fictional) geographical Data of the fictional map, e.g.:
fictional Place, fictional Zip-Code, fictional Country, fictional latitude, fictional longitude

Well, in the instance of video games, the game maps have co-ordinates. Any data would be custom created. This is what I would use it for, and yes I have geo data for the game. I am not asking you to make it, I am just wondering if there will be any instruction on adding custom maps. ;)

I actually thought of this (vB custom maps, not your mod) a while back, and this mod probably wouldn't be well suited to this purpose. My twist idea is to define location on the map by Who's Online. So different areas would represent different forums and threads. Obviously it would show who is where on the map based upon where they are on the forum. Sort of a visual map of your forum's current activity.

Hm... the more I think about it - the more I like the idea. What I think about is something like a 'map-construction-module' for this AddOn where a self-drawn map could be loaded and certain points be fixed with names by the users. Then it's getting converted into a 'map-package' and it can be used just like a normal map.

Hm..... that would take some time, but in generall it could be possible!

Give us some time that we can publish more major maps and after we finished and published 1.0.5 we might give it a try. ;)

World Map
Creating a map really takes some time, it's not only drawing a picture.
Vossi worked the whole day on the US-Map..... the world? we are going to map it! ;-)

Saudi Arabia
I do not have any geodata of Saudi Arabia at the moment,
if we will get such data, we would be able to provide a "Saudi Arabia"-map...
or if you/we will get only a table with the locations and zip-codes of Saudi Arabia,
I think I would be able to get the suitable geodata (longitude & latitude).
(Do you have such a table?)

It is possible to remove the state in front of the zipcode, so that people could enter e.g. 10001 for New York instead of NY 10001.

What do the american users think, which way is best and the most easy one for you to use?

We're still missing the geo's for india. And if somebody has the zipcodes for india then please let us know...

Awesome thanks! No rush for sure, just happy that it is of interest! And the way you presented it sounds great. Surprisingly, I have asked this question of a number of existing map programs, even google maps, and although I have found it is possible in all of them, it never gets mentioned. Yet there are so many community created maps for fictional worlds! Anyways, I look forward to seeing this in the distant future, thank you for the response. ;)

I also mentioned a mod that would use a map in place of who's online. I think that is another idea you could look into. A separate membermap could also take over who's online, or become another option for viewing who's online. Seems like this would be a relatively simple addition to your mod, at least compared my other suggestion!

Zip codes in the US are 00000-0000, but you can just use the first five. So 34056 for example. I don't know as far as Geodata is concerned, but using 78654 will get a letter to the address! (assuming that is actually a real zip code... I just mad it up.)

A separate membermap could also take over who's online, or become another option for viewing who's online. Seems like this would be a relatively simple addition to your mod, at least compared my other suggestion!
Robert and I were talking about this alreday. What we think is:

We create an area in which the user can load his (self-)made map. After that, the user can chose points and places on the card where he sets those to an event like cityname or whatever. The locations are getting ficious geodatas which are out of row from the ones used for the normal maps. After the card has been created, it can be saved and loaded right into the vBulletin-Membermap.

Is that the way you thought about, too?
Zip codes in the US are 00000-0000, but you can just use the first five. So 34056 for example. I don't know as far as Geodata is concerned, but using 78654 will get a letter to the address! (assuming that is actually a real zip code... I just mad it up.)
So it might be better for the input of the zip-code without the state (e.g. NY, MI, etc) within in...??? Okay, no problem from our side, we can easily fix this. What does the rest mean?

Yeah, without the state. There isn't anything I can think of that requires we put the state in. On mail, sure, but that isn't necessarily connected to the zipcode.

The extra four numbers are the postal code actually. Postal codes are extra codes for the post office to use when sorting mail. So technically, a U.S. zip code is just five numbers. :)

So if I enter in my state and zip, then hit enter, they show up for a millisecond as the page refreshes. I had to stop it just as I hit enter and then click save entry.

It should be a table with the following columns:
name of the place (e.g. Riyadh) | ZIP of the Place | longitude of the plce | latitude of the place

Maybe a table with these two columns would be already enough:
name of the place (e.g. Riyadh) | ZIP of the Place

Here is a short sample of the German geodata-table:

Berlin;14131;DE;52.517;13.4
Berlin;10115;DE;52.532;13.392
Berlin;10117;DE;52.516;13.387
Berlin;10119;DE;52.528;13.411
Berlin;10178;DE;52.523;13.414
Berlin;10179;DE;52.514;13.423
Dresden;01314;DE;51.05;13.75
Dresden;01067;DE;51.05;13.75
Dresden;01069;DE;51.043;13.737
Dresden;01097;DE;51.071;13.74
Hamburg;20095;DE;53.552;10
Hamburg;20097;DE;53.548;10.019
Hamburg;20099;DE;53.55;10
Hamburg;20144;DE;53.574;9.975
Hamburg;20146;DE;53.567;9.98
Hamburg;20148;DE;53.55;10

That's what we need.

maps.google.com can't provide such a table filled with postalcodes. :-(

And we do not like to send every request of postal code
to the Google API, because that would be an external request
for every user wich is making a map-entry.

It is always safer to use only the own, internal system (the own MySQL-Server),
and not the serviced provided by any external company.

That's why we do not use the google map. ;-)

This has been mentioned a number of times here. The problem is the save entry button doesn't show up. First, make sure you are entering in the state abbreviation, space, then your 5 digit zipcode, then the save entry button should show up (ex. wa 99206). If that doesn't work, Vossi told me to dump my browser cache then login again and it worked. So goto your browser's internet options and delete your temp and history files, restart your browser, login and it should show up after you enter your state and zip.

If it still doesn't work, enter your info in, move your mouse cursor to the Stop button in your browser, hit the Enter key, then the Stop button really quickly. The buttons will appear for a second before loading the target, so if you hit stop at the right time they will stay on the page and you can click Save Entry. ;)

Everything seems fine to me, although I haven't tried it with more than one user. Pop-ups are showing, and my previous problem with the save entry button was fixed obviously. I will update with the new map and post any bugs.

Name of the Headline in the window where the graphic of the map gets shown



Suggestions
On the membermap page the user info default title is "Information for own entry" could probably be changed to something like "User Information" or "My Info".

"This text is getting show when the map is turned off" could be changed to "Message displayed when the map is turned off."

"Here you can choose if you want to check for changes of the usernames whenever maps are getting generated" could be changed to "Allow Membermap to check for username changes whenever maps are generated."

"Headline of the input area?" should refer to the default title of the user area, and using Title or Header would be more correct than using Headline, so it could be "Title of the input area", or better yet "User Info Window Title" (without the question mark.)
"Name of the Headline in the window where the users can enter their data for an entry" could also be changed to "The title of Membermap's user information window."
"Headline of map output area?" could also be changed to "Map Window Title". "Name of the Headline in the window where the grafic of the map gets shown" could be "Title of the map display window."

We're quite busy with our jobs at the moment, as soon as we find time within the next days, we'll concentrate on the UK-map again.

It's not too much asked, but in fact we still need to create general maps first... :o

Those functions will be available in version 1.0.5!

The size of the map can easily be changed, which size do you need?

I'll be patience thank you!

Check that you have set all the permissions and uploaded the required files to the correct directories. That error is saying that it can't find the file that is referenced on line 594 of the vbmembermap.php file.

yeah, the Vauxhalldrivers must have this Map :D:D

I think thats a good Mod for vauxhallownersnetwork and MigWeb.

But give Vossi and Rob a little bit more time.
They works hard on this hack and the Maps include geodata cost a lot of time.

Dude, as a matter of fact I'm not responsible for converting any datas of any former map-versions from other coders. I gave a small script to you which works fine for me and other users, so please go and try yourself. I'm not going to take care of any old codings from other people which you run with your forum, I told you twice! Just install that map, tell your users to put their entry into it and it'll work fine. :mad:

Thank you very much for your great work. I really like this Add-on. But my users are asking for a new feature. To see the distance to other users is OK, but could you add a feature that it will be possible to calculate the route to other users?
Something like this: Click on a user and open a new window with a calculated route like with Google or MS like this:
http://maps.live.com/default.aspx?v=2&cp=53.047553~11.685032&style=r&lvl=7&tilt=-90&dir=0&alt=-1000&rtp=pos.srkcxjj3f8m6_Berlin%2C%20Berlin%2C%20Germa ny~pos.sxs09chtzf1n_Hamburg%2C%20Hamburg%2C%20Germ any&encType=1

. My twist idea is to define location on the map by Who's Online. So different areas would represent different forums and threads. Obviously it would show who is where on the map based upon where they are on the forum. Sort of a visual map of your forum's current activity.

I like this idea, sort of creating a "fiction country" for my board. Now what if someone creates another hack linking this map hack with Living Avatar hack, I could sell real estate out of Living Avatars and have the location appearing on the map. Wouldn't it be cool?

Great MOD!

I have three suggestions that I think would take it to the next level.
1. The ability to add points of interest.
2. The ability to have the State listed after the city. In the case of the US, only the city is listed.
3. Require zip code upon registration. It is pretty easy to make required fields when registering, but it would need to post that field to the database table used by membermap. This would make it so that all new users would be automatically added to the map.

If you don't like my reply, that's not my fault. If you can't handle the lack of support other then "check that it's (777) then maybe you better stop asking others to hold your hand. I'm not a noob to Vbulletin, nor to the plugins or computers for that aspect. It's been an issue that has been posted on in more then 30 days with 1 reply saying nothing more then make sure it's 777. If you think because it installs on 300 computers and 1 fails it's the failed computers fault, then you really need a clue.
