SSSSHHHH!!! We don’t use the word “profit” in this thread… It’s a free exchange of gaming materials :)

[LHoffman]

So it is! My mistake.  :wink:

They are from the 2008 version of Risk.

thanks

Hey louprouge, I tested the mediafire file and it is working fine, unfortunately I do not produce and sell my customizations as that is illegal… I only share them with the online community for free. My suggestion is to ask someone you know to download the file and get it printed for you. Good luck.

Here’s a YouTube video description of this map file…

Hello all, this thread has been a great help!  Kudos to Ambilzi & Grasshopper for putting together the 1940 Global Map(s).   Thanks also to Tall Paul for his encouragement regarding large maps “…IMHO it will be the best money with the best “Bang for the Buck” that you spend on your A&A gaming!”  Bigger is better?!

Last week, I got a quote from a local Southern California print shop and they provided the following estimates (note the $52 set up fee):

SET UP:   $52.05 ( digital color file set up, latex printer set up)

48" x 105" vinyl $142.63   print digital color 4/0 on white smooth vinyl (15oz)

48" x 105" canvas  $300.13  print digital color 4/0 on canvas

48" x 105" versa fabric   $273.88  print digital color 4/0 on versa fabric

53" x 116" vinyl   $174.63 print digital color 4/0 on white smooth vinyl (15oz)

53" x 116" canvas $368.13  print digital color 4/0 on canvas

53" x 116" versa fabric $335.88 please note: print cannot be any larger, printing on a 54" rolld

Thanks to everyone’s comments and feedback on this thread.   Can’t wait to wow 'em! with a map worthy of a multimillion dollar war movie.

A second set of quotes from a different Southern California printing company for printing on vinyl (the type of material used for advertising banners):

48"x105" ,  white 64" Roland EcoSol Banner, solvent 6 color Roland 4sf  $230.80

53"x116",    white 64" Roland EcoSol Banner, solvent 6 color Roland 4sf  $258.78

56"x122.5",  white 64" Roland EcoSol Banner, solvent 6 color Roland 4sf  $277.42

(I might check on the AliBaba website to see what I can find for printing services in China.  Also, I’m checking on the possibility of printing on upholstery vinyl and marine vinyl).

Has anyone printed his map on a larger scale without any issues yet?

It’s a pretty big file, and the printer pro should be able to tell you how much res you might lose if any. Also, Billiam’s print is really huge and he said he’s getting it printed this week… so he should be able to tell us how it looks after the file being really streched.

Update: Still looking to print a large map.  I am currently in S. Korea checking with local print shops.  Got a quote of USD $120 for printing on banner vinyl for  a 53" x 116".  Somewhat worried about curling at the edges, but I figure curling would be solvable.  As for resolution, one of the southern California printers were gracious enough to print out the European AA map at 1.5 the size …the resolution was satisfactory.
