Hello KoolSourcers:

The dynamic map is currently running a full render of all of our maps.
There was a new version released today and we decided to change some settings around to make the map more pleasant to look at. The flat map is now HD meaning that instead of just coloured blocks, it now has the actual texture from the block you are looking at. We have also removed the Non-HD "Surface" map and replaced it with an HD version. In this update we've added the ability to view cuboid areas, towns, and player's last seen location if they're offline.

This render process should can take between 24 and 36 hours and may cause slight lag on the server for the duration of the render. We have tried to optimize it as much as possible in an effort to make the impact on server performance as small as possible.

You may still view the dynamic map during this process but please keep in mind that some zoom levels and regions of the map may not be rendered and therefore not show up.

If you have any questions or concerns please feel free to post them here.

-John
