Vector Mapping (Mapping Dialect)

Vector Mapping, or Old Monsoonjr, is a branch of mapping that uses vector graphics instead of bitmap graphics to make the slides. Programs such as Inkscape and Adobe Illustrator can be used for vector mapping (although Inkscape was the only one that has been used so far). It is basically the same as Mapanimator/Early MOAP, but with extra ugly borders where land meets sea and on the edge of war territories. It was created by Monsoonjr99 in September 2014 when he started mapping because it seemed easier to him at the time, although it turned out to be more tedious in the long run. In July 2015, he showed Mich56 (Ohioan Mapping) how to do it over a Skype call, and one test video was uploaded on Mich's channel. It was abandoned by Monsoonjr99 in August 2015 due to limitations in mapping quality that would work much better with bitmap (such as textures), that Mich pointed out to Monsoonjr99 when he decided not to continue using the dialect. Later on, 6 seconds of vector mapping would show up in Monsoonjr99's "R.I.P. Ded Videos" video in May 2016 from an old vector mapping video that Monsoonjr99 never finished. In August 2016, vector mapping was revived by Canary Mapping for a week when he uploaded a test video, he started a series in September 2016, which wasn't continued. The North America series that started on the August video were continued but episode 2 was never finished so it wasn't uploaded.
