Another visit to the strange Museum in the forest transports you a different world. Unlike the warm, sun bathed, Isle from a few days ago you find yourself in a strange barren landscape. Snowflakes fall from the sky in a seemingly endless parade of torture against your body that has gotten used to the warm Caribbean climate. Apart from the frozen lake ahead of you, you are unable to see much. Which direction to go?
Svea Station is based on a series of real places but they are by no means in such close proximity to one another in real life. Svea, is a small station that is, or rather was, home to the Swedish Antarctic Research Team. Next to it lays a sturdy cement dog kennel, featuring many enclosed dog runs. To the other-side of the map lays a small arctic museum and the remains of the Omond House and it's many elevated sled dog houses.
Hidden underneath the remnants of an old stone hut you find a large hole. You aren't sure if venturing down it is a good idea and hesitate for a moment. Hmm ... is that music you hear? You lean in close to hear better and find yourself falling down the dark tunnel.
Welcome to Club ICE, a club built inside a glacier. Though the atmosphere is cool the beats are hot and are provided by a rather large neon bear. DJ Gummiiibear doesn't need food or sleep to survive. He runs on pure beats and keeps Club ICE pumping 24-7. Club Ice features a large dancefloor, a heated pool and poolside lounge, a bar and a VIP section at the top of the club. All levels of Club Ice are accessible via a series of elevators.
Please Note the following before opening the map:
To enter the dog kennel simply walk through the front chainlink panel on the inside of the building.
You aren't going crazy. You are hearing voices near the Log Museum. It's a rather long, (40ish minutes) segment about the removal of the last Sled Dogs from Antarctica in 1994. Turn down the music if you wish to listen.
Club ICE elevators are simply water collisions so walk in, hit R to go up or F to go down.

If you fail to do this the music in the maps will not work.NOTICE TO ANYONE THAT DOWNLOADED SOUTH PLAZA ISLAND LAST WEEKDue to me being a FeralHeart N00b I was not aware of a glitch with the Weather and Sky files. If you plan to ever use the Farcaster map again download this and follow the directions blow. This download is only for the people that already have the Farcaster Map. It will not give you the full map if you missed it. Click below to download the edited files.
http://www.mediafire.com/download/lfprt9tihtikjnp/South+Plaza+Island+EDIT.zipExtract all files in this download and put them in their proper place. Replace ALL the old files with the new ones.
Then Remove these two files from your exports:
SouthPlazaIslandSky.fhs
SouthPlazaIslandWeather.fhw
Doing this will solve the glitch where people get randomly kicked from the map and also edits the Island to have a walkable Peninsula and non-transparent water.
Q. Wait what? How do I get to the new map?A. Enter the Farcaster Museum through the front door, the picture is hanging in the back part of the museum against the long black wall [where the couch is] Walk through it. The portal is hidden behind the wall.
Q. How do I get back to the Museum?!A. There's a portal hidden in the map. It's elevated on a small rock platform.
Q. So I'm in the Museum again? Where in the world did it poof me to?!A. The second story of the back part of the Museum. All maps will link back to this Arrival Pad from now on.
Q. Is there lag?A. Nope. I tested it on my crummy desktop without issue and neither of the maptesters reported any either.
Q. Rp? Can I / My group / My great grandfather Hank roleplay here?A. Yes, Yes and Yes. Just be respectful of other users.
