I like this map, but it has a few problems. 1/ you can make gold, but nobody wants it. You can build arms as well as cars in Adelaide(with an “e”, NOT an “a” on the end), but nobody wants arms no matter how big the cities become. Very frustrating when I based my whole strategy one time making gold and no bugger would pay me for it. Also the topography is wrong on the east coast-Sydney, Brisbane are on flat plains in front of mountains to the west, not in those mountains. Somebody else said the whole continent is on a cliff, I have no problem with that as it is essentially true of Australia-Its very flat, but well above sea level, so kudos for that one someone else critisized because it is actually accurate 🙂

Look the game up on the PC gaming wiki site. The last section, “Issues Fixed”, contains a link to the most stable exe I know of.

Others have pointed out that the map didn’t get as much love as some of the others. In fact if you look down below in the section called Related Websites you will find a link called “forum”. This will take you onto this site’s forum, then look for the thread called “Australia” in the Maps in Development section. On page 3 of the thread you will find a version of the map which has had some bug fixing.

Depending on how keen you are there are 4 working Australia maps on the site to be found in the Related Websites with the link “vzbob’s Forum”, but you must sign up for an account and be active in order to download.

I’m enjoying this map, but I keep getting CTDs. I’m patched to 1.10, I have no other maps installed, and it seems to crash at different points. Sometimes it’ll be within a few minutes, sometimes after ten mins or so, but it always crashes. Anyone know of any fixes?

Why is everything spelt wrong in this map?
Great dividing range way over stated leaving no plains at all to the east ( Where most Australian people live ). Ugly ugly ugly.

agree with RolandBP this map should not have left draft idea… this map should be marked as bad and not playable, yeah you can play it until you discover no beach at australian at all , this sahould be named as alpha map not tested not worth game time at all.

Your map loaded okay, but it is a shame that the Gold Coast is not at sea level. The whole continent should be lowered, it unfortunately spoilt the feeling to play it for me. Can you lower the whole map?

worst map ever, the only thing that was similar to oz was the rough size, the terrain is nothing like it, and hardly any industries, everything was miles apart, you could make gold bars but no one needs them at all, looks like it was just thrown together.

McBarnacle, you need to grow the city first before sending Arms, Gold, Manufactured Goods, etc. Anyways there isnâ€t any problem here. Youâ€d never thought that if the city grows the city will have more options of goods it will receive. ;)
