Mapping Liberty City (Laying Out Liberty City)

[Darrel]

Hi, here's my try for the map.. after compiling three screenshots... warning this is done fast and with a mouse xP

what do you guy's think? i know it's without the city's and stuff.. i'm not that good at that kind of stuff.. this is just what i think it's going to be like... comparing it to the small and the bigger map's (edit: allthough i might think that the little island's in the middle there might be together instead of separated)

That is actually really good

I don't have a photoshop and only thing in my PC that resembles it is paint.net, but I'm offline so I returned to the stone age and made a comparison map of Alconquin and San Fierro part of SA. Assuming that the size of map in IV is 3/4 of SA map, I made a map on paper (using one of the earlier maps) with the same ratio as the paper map from SA box. And it's pretty accurate I'd say. Now say it's not big enough lol!

 

Wow, that is impressive......and seems realistic for Algonquin's size.

 

Still wish we had a better idea of how much of New Jersey was in the game.

I really want to know. I won't be pleased with a small strip of land.

Alderney is supposed to be the biggest Borough according to R*, I can imagine it's the size of Dukes and Broker combined.

 

This is a map in a boat, so it is unlikely it would show Alderney which is a land area.

 

The question is, what will it look like? Apart from Jersey City, is it going to be all suburbs? I'd like to see the airport & military base here, plus the junkyard and train yards...

Alderney is a land area yes...but aren't the other boroughs land areas as well?

Yes, very nice map indeed. but i wonder all the time: don't you guys have anything better to do?

i mean, can't you just wait for the game, and see the map in there for yourself?

1st dose what we do bothering u ?

2nd i love this game and i dont mind to find and explore evry thing about it .

i think u do the same thing for the stuf u like what ever they are

[mirageisme]

Good find on the background building.

Allthough I'm not convinced about the "river" idea.

 

I've made a cutout of that portion and fiddled the colors a bit,

and to me it looks more like a car that drives past a pole.

 

But I maybe wrong.

yea i find out that there are no revir but i saw water and i wasnt sure what is it but u are right its not river or water its a street ... nice work ... thats make alot of things esear and i'm workin on some thing may be i'll post it tonight thnx

This is cool how everyone is coming together trying to map this whole thing out with the little pieces they have to work with. I appreciate everyones time and dedication they are putting into this. Thanks to all the contributors. It will be interesting to see how close you guys got to the real thing. I cant wait.

What possible reason do you have for caring?

You're acting like it's your topic and you're the one who's in charge of everything around here (in this topic).

 

On-Topic: I've found something too. Just lemme go through the pages to check if it's not already posted before.

 

edit: Man, there are like 44 pages! I'll delete it if it's found already. It looks like it's been found, but what the harm in posting?

What do you guys think? I tried the best i could. I'll come up with more maps soon.

[phs1234]

Is that your own creation? I think this thread is for people trying to actually predict the map based on screens.

Well i guess your right. But in the broker map, you can see part of the broker map that people made based on the screenshots.

[OptimumPx]

I need to know what do u think of that :

 

 

 

 

and here they are the first skitch:

 

Very nice. I really like it.

 

The only problem I have is that the Chrysler Building (Building #1 on your map) is further away from the river then you've got it. Maybe about a block back or so.

[mirageisme]

thnx OptimumPx .. about the Chrysler Building #1 I realized that its located about 1 to 2 blooks deeper so i'm not sure ... but if u look at this picture u will see the Chrysler Building around the location where i but it

 

Edited January 14, 2008 by mirageisme

[mirageisme]

And here i change the location of the Chrysler Building #1 on my map

 

[gtathebest4ever]

ok i have added the world financial Centre to the times square map...

 

hmmm... isn't the empire state building on the east side of broadway?
