Dark Fantasy Symbols by Ralf
Hi guys,
I hope Ralf is still with CC3. I stumbled upon your free Dark Symbol Fantasy set. I downloaded it but it only works for CC3. Is there a way to make these available for CC3+? I think you have done an excellent job, especially with the structures!
Or how would I import this file into CC3?

Also, these symbols are also bundled along with the Tome of Ultimate Mapping for CC3+, so if you have that, you should also have the symbols.
Otherwise you'll just have to await a reply from Ralf.
Thanks for your response! Does the Tome of Ultimate Mapping come with the CC3+ purchase? Or is that a separate entity all together?
How exactly would I go about copying the symbol catalogs over?
Thanks!
To copy the symbol catalogs over, just find the three symbol catalog files it installed to your CC3 Installation directory (c:\Program Files (x86)\ProFantasy\CC3 by default)). They're somewhere inside the Maps directory inside the Symbols directory. I don't have the exact paths right now, but it should be 3 files, all named dark something, and all of type symbol catalog (.fsc files).
Just copy these files into your CC3+ data directory (c:\ProgramData\ProFantasy\CC3Plus by default) somewhere, preferably under the symbols directory. Now you can open them from inside CC3+ by clicking the open symbol catalog button, and just browse to the files you copied.
Since these are all vector symbols, no special conversion to CC3+ is required.
Here is the Path: The Dark Fantasy Symbols -- CC3/Symbols/Maps/SS1/Fantasy/Color/
I personally waited about 6 months after being active with CC3+ before I bought the TUM. I wish I had bought it as soon as I got started with CC3+, my knowledge would be much farther along than it is now
I also wouldn't mind another annual with some more Hermin Wielink.
I do seem to remember that someone mentioned, either here or on the FB page just recently, that he had become a photographer and wasn't doing map stuff any more.
But what we have is usually enough if you use a few sheet effects to vary the available colours for a bit of variation now and then
EDIT: seems whoever mentioned the photography thing is right. https://www.instagram.com/djekspek/ (djekspek = Herwin Wielink)
He hasn't visited Cartographer's Guild (where he's been a member since 2009) for over 2 years now. Even his DeviantArt page seems to have been abandoned at around the same time.
Memory is a terrible thing to lose, and I'm clearly starting to lose mine, since it wasn't that long ago you said it.
Didn't know they were there, but they are very good.
I wonder if Peter is in a Annual or something. I would like more symbols.
And thank you for removing images that i faulty put up here.
