There is an easy way to make a .gmap, and a much harder way. The easy way is to use the Levelgen (there is a tutorial file in the levelgen folder) to make a blank set of levels the size that you want them, and then go in and fill in the levels the way you want.

The hard way is to make your own .gmap file and link the levels.

You have to make a bunch of levels and then include them all in a .txt file sort of like this

GRMAP001
WIDTH 2
HEIGHT 2
LEVELNAMES
"level1.nw","level2.nw"
"level3.nw","level4.nw"
LEVELNAMESEND

You have to put this text file along with these levels (they all have to be linked) into the same folder, and then put an npc in one of the levels and type something like

setmap levels.gmap,0,0;

This might work, although I'm not really sure. I reccomend using the levelgen, as it has never failed me in the past. You can make worlds that are 3 by 3, the size of Iricia, or several hundreds of levels.

You have inspired me to make a little overworld, seeing as I have nothing better to do.
