Indiana Jones and the Great Circle

This us a cool link but can you see the maps without the overlay icons?

Yes, there is an option in the left side menu to hide all the icons.

Very good sir, thank you!

right click on the images on this page Indiana Jones Interactive Map | Map Genie and select 'open image in new tab' and you should be able to save them.

I wonder how dug this up.
This can't just be copy pasted from them game.
Looks too clean.
I guess someone finally got access to the game source material.

I couldn't make it. All it lets me do it is copy the maps url. Do I have to register in order to be able to copy the maps?

This is all I could get out of the site. The rest is called by javascript which is why you can't get to the underlaying maps that have the overlay.

I made screenshots. Bigger files but not really better quality.

The Giza postcard that Indy finds in the office at Marshall College was probably generated from a stock image. I tried to recreate this in Gimp.

Great find!

The photo of the pyramids seems like a retouched photo of Francis Frith: Pyramiden van Gizeh

They just cropped and added some clouds(?). *edit* the photo is in the public domain, no matter what these image sites try to tell you.

I liked the contrast better on the stockimage to start with.

These old postcards are very similar also

I tried to recreate the Marshall College ID. The foto I put through the Remini App.

Hey all! I've been lurking on this forum for many years. Lately, I've been excited to try my hand at some Indiana Jones prop replicas, and The Great Circle is a great place for me to start. I've taken some of my screenshots, as well as some extracted texture files, and have started to organize them for eventual use as a replica of the in-game journal. Below is an example: the texture for a baseball card found at Marshall College, and a "normalized/cleaned up" version that I did this morning to remove the tape and change the angle



I also have high quality versions of all the maps. For example, Marshall College again:



Lastly (for now!) here's the ID card, which I've not yet cleaned up in PS:

Looking forward to working on this journal with you all!

So it begins Very cool thank you. I‘m extracting the files as well at the moment.

Woohoo! Let me know if you're able to find the texture files for the items when you pick them up in the world. I've only been able to find the images of the items within the journal. So they have clear tape on them, and many of the letters are folded. As well, any backs to the inserts are not visible.

Examples above. It would save a lot of time to find the item textures!

In any case, I have screenshots of every item in the game, so the actual content is accessible

I was thinking this real world photo could be the inspiration for one of the sketches of Shanghai

Great research and resources here! I found the font used for that letter ==> Mr Sheffield:


And a similar image (minus the visitors) for the postcard:

I also found the font used for the diary ==> Homemade Apple:

Fantastic detective work!

I can upload all the insert files to my google drive tomorrow. Getting the fonts and the potential sources for the photographs would be extremely helpful, and I'd like to participate in that.

For one, finding the fonts for the folded letters would make recreating them rather simple. As I go through and recreate the letters and such, I'll upload them to a shared folder.

How did you find those fonts? I'd like to identify the font on the back of the baseball card. Here's a photo inspecting the back, and if it helps, I've skewed the image in Photoshop to straighten it out.

Since someone asked, here are the high res map files! Enjoy
