Litvanka

Posted by Litvania on 9 January 2017 in English.

Guys, still calling for destinations for Litvanka!

Also, would any aerospace companies in OGF (SAI, Watanabe etc..) like to sell some aircraft to Litvanka? So far Litvanka only posesses aircraft from the Litvanian Aerospace company, MIC Aerospace. (I have had this made-up company since i was about 6 years old)

I am looking for volunteers to design liveries (or a livery) for Litvanka. I do not posess the technical knowledge of photoshop to be able to implement my livery onto aircraft photos.

Destinations for Horjene/Litvanka

Posted by Litvania on 6 January 2017 in English.

Hey Guys,

I have lately been working on an airline for Litvania. That is Litvanka Airlines, which will be the flag carrier. It is an airline that operates from Molburg-Ošina, and aims to fly all around the world, with serving at least two airports in every Ulethan country(if the country has two).

Ill start work on the wiki page later.

Another airline im working on is Horjene z.a, a regional airline based in Tirstená. It operates in and out of Litvania, flying mainly to tourist destinations. It an extremely popular low-cost Litvanian airlines, and will hopefully become the EasyJet of OGF.

All i need for you guys to help is destinations. If you want to add your airport(s) please leave a comment in the following format:

Comment that you want to make (optional)

##Litvanka: Destination 1, Destination 2* ##Horjene: Destination 1, Destination 2*

*You dont have to choose both, choose the one that suites your country’s location. For example, Horjene will not fly to Mahhal.

Molburg Feedback

Posted by Litvania on 3 January 2017 in English.

My original post seems to have been lost to the sands of time so…

I want to get back to the topic of the thread: MOLBURG/MOLÍBOR/MOLIBÓRZ/МОЛИБУРГ

I need your feedback for Molburg. Before i go further and mess anything up, and need your opinions on: location, layout, buildings, street layout(IMPORTANT), etc…

i am planning on the population to be around 500,000

I am really proud of my progress so far, but i am in need of opinions.

Happy New Year, and Happy Mapping Guys

Special Thanks

Posted by Litvania on 1 January 2017 in English. Last updated on 3 January 2017.

Hello Guys!

Hope you all have a great 2017, and that you do things that no one has ever done!

I only joined officially in like October, but i believe i have made huge progress (as well as mistakes) when working within Litvania. I have worked primarily on roads, railways, small towns, larger towns and a city, and geography. All these i believe have improved my skill in editing the Opengeofiction maps, as well as using them for editing OSM (i also contribute there).

I would like to thank certain people for there special efforts to help me and to help me understand certain things here at OGF.

@eklas - You helped me alot with getting Litvania into JOSM, which i was really happy about, however now things are okay, and it works when downloading and editing areas from the OGF map. You also did a great deal at the beginning, when i only joined, you sent me links to FAQ’s, you answered certain questions etc… I am really greatful for all your efforts in helping me to get accustommed to OGF.

@Luciano - You helped me with the video you posted on Youtube about how to use JOSM with OGF. It did great help, and now i know how to use JOSM a bit more.

@Demuth - You welcomed my concession idea, which i was expecting to be rejected violently by most other people.

Everyone else who helped me with thise magical site i am really thankful to, as a year before now, i was starting tomthink about creating one myself.

So yeah, thanks to you all. I am really appreaciative, and greatful for all you efforts.

Copying Real Names

Posted by Litvania on 18 December 2016 in English.

Why are the awkwardly placed countries like Slavonia, Florescenta, Scandmark and Swaldia so empty?

I thought a mapper was only allowed to work on 1 project, and when he/she works on one for considerable amount of time, and maps it out in enough detail, then he will be allowed to work on other territories.

Meanwhile @Andy breaks the rules, somehow aquires 5 territories, and leaves them half finished. Also i would like to know why he used multiple real place names in his mapping(Ljubljana, Zagorsk, Hastings, Königstein)

This is not an attack on @Andy, rather just constructive criticism.

Litvania

Posted by Litvania on 9 December 2016 in English.

I am gonna get straight to it.

I dont want to work on the capital of Litvania.

I have neither the will or motivation to do it, as i want to spend more time on the more interesting area of Litvania such as the countryside.

I need someone to help me.

Thats all i am asking.

Maybe a new user, who would like to help me?

Creation of Maps for you!

Posted by Litvania on 2 December 2016 in English.

Lately, i have been thinking a lot about the creation of non-OGF maps of OGF countires, continents etc…

So i thought, to practice my Inkscape mapping even more, i thought i would offer anyone who is having trouble creating general maps the opportunity to let me experiment and see what turns out best.

If you are willing to have me make a map of your country, please notify me below.

Paper Maps and Atlases

Posted by Litvania on 28 November 2016 in English.

Question:

Do any of you have paper or digital maps of your country; or the OGF world itself, on paper or .svg, .png or .jpg files?

After looking at an Oxford Students Atlas i had the idea of having one for our world.

I know however, that our world is continuosly being changed, and is currently not even close to started. This would pose a problem, however i could update it time to time.

Your thoughts?

Location: UL19ab, UL19a

The OGF World is full of wonderful features such as this, this and these as well.

All of these have been accomplished using determination and effort, and have a really effective turnout.

@EMKLI mentioned this idea before!

However, it would be nice if we could take more inspiration from the real world. A good example of this would be the island stretching from Norðurland to ER137/138/139. They could stretch more, in fact why not have some sort of “Aleutian Islands” in that area. This would create a “Hesperic Ring of Fire”.

Or for example the South. Why not have a sort of Antarctica like land mass, that could be a collaborative territory, but basically that would make it divided by the different users’ countries.

Comment for more ideas!

The Global Seed Vault

Posted by Litvania on 12 November 2016 in Slovak (Slovenčina).

Ive been thinking about us having our own sort of “Seed Vault”. Something similar to that of the Svalbard Global Seed Vault, i would hope this to be built on the slope of “Lodovec”, a mountain in Litvania at 4698m a.s.l

This would have its own wiki article, and would obviously be on the map. Anyway, i have a lot of ideas nowadays. Let me know if your interested.

JOSM Problems

Posted by Litvania on 30 October 2016 in English.

Hey guys,

Im new, and i own UL108d, or Litvania. 2 things:

1.)Im hvong problems with JOSM, and this is urgent, so i need help. Whenever i dpwnload the data from the OGF server, it dosent show up a map, but a grid of red crosses. Ive made sure all the settings are correct, and they are.

2.)I am a bit dissapointed, because its been 3-4 days since i changed the name of my territory, and its still not changed.(Sorry if this offends the admins, however i am a bit impatient)

Anyway, a wiki will be up soon, so youll be able to know more about my nation sometime this year/month.
