A Map of Classic Warcraft v1.0 - Release
Author: Bayawulf
!! IMPORTANT !!: Backup your characters and worlds before using this (as you always should), and before you update.
Introduction:
A Map of Classic Warcraft for Valheim aims to bring a realistic(ish) translation of the Classic Azeroth map into Valheim. Using the mod, template, and additional assistance from the Better Continents mod and its creator I have attempted to make a highly playable and enjoyable that could be used for a legitimate playthrough of Valheim!
This is my first ever attempt at creating any form of mod at all and mostly my first time using photoshop so a lot was learned in the process of making this. With that said the map has no major flaws that I was able to find with a quick flyover. I tested Kalimdor extensively already and am aware of some spots that need slight fixing however the mod used to create the map is getting a massive update soon allowing much greater control over map creation and terrain blending so until then I'm not gonna do much tweaking.
Map Features:
- Both major Classic WoW Continents
- Teldrassil moved from top left into center of the map (Currently acts as spawn point. It was randomly generated but I kinda like it, may or may not change.)
- Entire map "Squished" a bit closer together to not only fit the world size but also prevent the insanely long boat trip that would otherwise be necessary.
- All boss spawns (Only 2/3 Moder spawns, Will be fixed.)
- 154/250 Troll Caves (Will be fixed. Barely noticeable.)
- 147/150 Goblin Stone Towers (Will be fixed. Not noticeable.)
- Everything else important fully spawned, e.g. Crypts, Ruins, Trader, etc. (Unless above here, it spawned fine!)
- Each zone should have a fair enough distribution of biomes for now. (Will be changed in the future.)
Installation:
- BACK UP WORLD AND CHARACTERS!
- Install (if you don't have it already) the latest version of Better Continents and it's dependencies.
- Download the ClassicAzeroth.zip file containing the worldsave.
- Unzip the contents directly into your worlds directory.
(Located at: C:\Users\<user name>\AppData\LocalLow\IronGate\Valheim\worlds ) - Boot up your game and load into ClassicAzeroth!
Better Continents must be installed on both CLIENT AND SERVER

Future Updates:
- Increase accuracy of the HeightMap used to get better terrain levels. (Smoother lakes/rivers/mountains etc.)
- Tweaks in the BiomeMap to help along with better terrain generation (Small
tweaks, zones will still stay as they are - mostly less swamp in other
zones) - A custom SpawnMap to not only fix missing Troll Caves/shipwrecks/etc but also properly place abandoned
buildings/settlements/spawns to accurately represent similar spawn
points from WoW. - Usage of the mod BuildShare to important highly accurate structures into their respective
areas (Have reached out to multiple people building SW on Reddit. Hope
to hear from them.) - Usage of the new Custom Audio mod to import the correct zone Music/ambient sounds/ other sounds such as UI from WoW to Valheim
This is all currently planned. HeightMap is almost done, however the SpawnMap will probably be a while.
BuildShare imports will happen as i'm able to acquire them. I don't have much time to build myself!
(If you would like to help contribute by building and exporting with
BuildShare please reach out to me. All builders will always be credited
for their works!!)
Suggested Mods:
(If you have any Mod Suggestions to use along with this, please leave them in posts and ill add them here!
(This is a simple list, many more mods would go great so check them all out!)
- BuildShare(AdvancedBuilding) - Allows you to save/place your own buildings or sections of as well as export them as what are called .vbuild files. You can also import and place buildings made by other creators into your worlds! (Useful to save you builds and move your progression onto new updates of the map!)
- ValheimPLUS - Adds/changes a ton of features of Valheim - all totally configurable through the Vortex configuration panel with F1. Check the page for details.
- Equipment and Quick Slots - Adds an equipment panel outside of your inventory container as well as a few quickslot hotkeys. (Ensure you configure ValheimPLUS properly with this as they both affect inventory and will cancel eachother out! Just turn off Valheim+ Inventory settings!)
- More Slots - More inventory space that works with Equipment and Quick Slots unlike ValheimPLUS!
- Epic Loot - Have not checked this mod out but it seems like it would fit nicely!
- Better Trader - As it states makes the Trader better. (Works with Epic Loot too!)
- Multiverse - Have not checked this mod out but seems like you could use it to link this map with the maps linked below!
My Other Mods:
- Baya's Crafting House : A simple BuildShare .vbuild file of a open-air themed Smiths workshop. (uploaded under my old account)
(Mods in the works!):
- Shields of Warcraft for Valheim : A retexture of shields adding Azeroths imagery!
- Banners of Warcraft for Valheim: A retexture of Banners adding Azeroths imagery!
- Sails of Warcraft for Valheim: A retexture of Sails adding Azeroths imagery!
- Music of Warcraft for Valheim: Change the music of Valheim to the zone-appropriate WoW zone wav.file (may do a bunch of ambient/other sound effects.
