MFO@UltimateWater by RF_Gandalf and MFO@Mapster
MFO@Ultimate Water is THE random map script for those who like all kinds of maps with water, naval warfare and fishing boats. This randomized script gives an almost infinite variety of island, coastal, continental, Baltic-style or SaltMarsh-style maps, plus many other new and random variations. Map style, terrain, land size, water channel size, island size, island shape, separation of islands, the location, number and size of extra islands, extra island resources, player setup and land connections are all randomly varied. Maps may be similar to the well known standards Coastal, Mediterranean, Highland, Archipelago, Islands, Migration or Team Islands, but these are only a small fraction of the possibilities. You will be surprised at what this script can generate, with regard to variation on the standard maps
If you like to play on water type maps, like to boat boom, like to launch your well-planned armada toward enemy shores, and like a lot of variation, this map will give you all that you can ask for. Resources are pretty standard, with slight variability in some extra food resources like you see between Arabia, Highland and Coastal. There is also a rare random possibility of large deposits of gold or stone on some extra islands, a little like "Crater Lake". All maps have a little more fish than the usual similar ES map scripts.
As with many Mapster map scripts there are multiple randomly chosen terrain patterns, and you can choose either a version that does not include snow as a possibility(standard) or the winter (-W) version that does include snow terrains (3 out of 21 patterns here include snow).
Note that the original scripts released 6/19/01 had a rare bug that has been corrected.

Theme 5
The intened theme behind MFO@UltimateWater is a scirpt that creates a series of random water levels and this script does just that and not does it just do it, it does an amazing job of it.
Theme Improvements
-None
Visual Appeal 5
Not only does this script give you several combinations of possible water maps but they all look really nice too. This script is an example of a script that looks really clean and crisp (it looks to good to be real, but in a way is so down to earth that it looks real). The author of this script is able to make the map look amazing without using any eye candy which is an amazing feat.
Visual Appeal Improvements
-Nope
Playability 5
No bugs, no resource distribution problems, no problems period. The playability like the visual appeal is clean and crisp.
Playability Improvements
-Nil
