Saw this on /r/ultimaonline on reddit, while not that impressive by itself, It's interesting to see how the google maps API can be used for game worlds. Would be interesting to see a map like this of our server with houses and player-towns added in, maybe make it publicly tag-able by players, could be add an interesting dimension to the community.

Can view coordinates by adding something like "?x=1431&y=1687" to the end of the url

That's pretty sweet. Although we have to add Street View.

We used to use a map for Darkfall that was done using Google Maps API. Was really nice, had all the spawn locations, towns, mines, etc. all able to be toggled on or off. VERY useful in fact I almost never played the game without having it up on my other screen.
