Dubious Cat Posted November 21, 2006 Share Posted November 21, 2006 does anyone kjnow where ei can get a map with coordinates that correspond to those in the CS? because i want to make a house with a good veiw of the surrounding landscape, but i cant see it on the CS, and i cant tell where my house is supposed to go by using coordinates. usually when i find what looks like the spot of land i had my eye on, it turns out it is past the borders of the game. what i really want for this mod is to have it where a house would be useful, like along one of the main roads, as that is the thing i like least about not using fast-travel; nowhere to rest. ANYWAY i need a map with coordinates so i dont have to spend hours loading the right bit of road :dry: please help anyone who can! PS ive searched Google already XD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Abramul Posted November 22, 2006 Share Posted November 22, 2006 -Go to the location you want to use.-Now, select 2 known locations. I would recommend using ones that are fairly close to your present location, and whose bearings are as close to a 90-degree angle to each other as possible.-Point yourself towards the first location. Write down the name of the first location. Enter `GetAngle z` in the console, and write the result next to the location name.-Repeat the above with the second location. -Open the CS, find the CS position of each location's exterior door.-From the 2 known positions, and the 2 known angles, calculate the position you were trying to find. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trigometryhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Surveying Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
