I know that some of you want a cloth Map!
For those of you that have good color Ink-Jet printers & a Scanner you can make your own high quality cloth Maps using an Iron-On transfer Kit. Go to the following site to buy the kits or check with your better stationary stores or goggle "Iron-On transfer paper" and there are alot of different manufacturers of the paper. http://www.proworldinc.com I realize this is not something alot of you would even consider doing and believe the cloth map should come with the game. Bethesda has said that the cloth map is not even being considered. They have high quality paper maps included with the game as well as a book and a coin in the Collectors edition & that's it. "WARNING" Don't use iron-on transfer paper for inkjet printers in your laser printer. The heat can cause the paper to melt all over the inside of your printer, possibly resulting in hefty repair bills or destroying your printer all together.

There is no such thing as "high quality paper". You fold it a comple of times and it start ripping off.
It's also cumbersome. You can't leave a huge paper sheet laying around, but you can a piece of cloth. I still have an ultima cloth map on my desktop and I haven't played the game in ages. Oh well... I heard this game will use Starforce and I won't buy it if it does, but otherwise I guess regular edition will have to do.

Sometimes you have to take the bad with the good if you really want something. But me personally my dislike of Starforce is greater than my desire to play this game...

Don't worry, a crack/hack no cd will be out on the net by release day.. (No CDs are patches are ok to talk about) because copy protection has become a fng JOKE..

Indeed, indeed...and I've never experienced the joys of a cloth map, but I really have never used physical maps for games, either. To me, it's not really necessary. I'm pretty sure I'm just going to get the regular edition of Oblivion when it comes out.

Luvian, that makes a lot of sense. I was thinking specifically of zero-day no-cd patches, you are probably right that good no-cd patches show up eventually.
