So not so recently, I picked up the Impressive Title source code, made my own server and derped around for a while and it got me thinking about porting all the maps from KITO/IT to Feral Heart as a casual project over the next month or so. I've already started on it but its taking upwards of 3 hours to move a map over and something on a scale like this is probably going to take an eternity to do myself.

I looked around on the forum and I'm surprised no one has attempted this yet. And for anyone who didn't get a chance to explore IT in its past glory this would be an opportunity for them to experience it now. Not to mention new public maps for people to use and RP on. Don't get me wrong but after almost 3 years of playing FH I am kind of bored of Fluorite Plains.

But, if you're looking to help me out you need to be able to do a few things.
I can help explain it to you but you need to be willing to work on this with me.

Convert the old height maps from grayscale to RGB since FH allows more than than 2 textures on a map at any time meaning you'd need a decent image editor like Gimp or Photoshop.
Be able to read and understand the original .cfg, .world and .material files from the maps.
Convert the original models, weather, emitters and other things to a format that is compatible with FH.

If you're interested in my slightly insane project, add me on Skype (tobias.hagen7) or PM me. :D

Screenshots pls xD I don't exactly know what Impressive Title is (since I'm new to FH), so I would love to see what the maps look like!
