Harn mapping?

I remember downloading the Harn items.
Currently on my cellphone and can't check.
Are there any maps in the Harn add-on ?
I mumble mumble sigh decided to make some Harn maps. I bought a number of things via drivethru. I think 3000 miles by 2400 miles might be too big for Harn.
Is Harn already in a Cc2/Cc3/Cc3+ template or map ?
I started one using the 2022 Island Chain style. Need to redo the central lake, etc.
Any ideas, maps, etc. are welcome.
Thanks !

@roy.denton made a Hârn style for cc3+: https://forum.profantasy.com/discussion/10093/harn-styles-for-cc3-finally-ready-for-a-test-drive/p1
It works really well too. I did this map for a PHARN article I am writing on Kelen Chapterhouse.
It will look different with my finished product but you can really make nice maps that look very close to what Columbia Games produces.
I was hoping to make the continent map or there would already be one made.
I have their map. I can punt and see what I get.
I did a web search and found a number of Harn maps, but none done with any version of Campaign Cartographer.
My current map, made with the 2022 Island Chains Annual, at 3000 miles by 2400 miles, is all I have for now.
I might work more on it later this week, but I have a few things to attend to.
Well, I have a continent, islands, and an ocean. Now, just to get the rest in order. One face palm later.
Not sure I want to continue with this map and new website. I just keep adding projects, and that has to stop.
edit: I get this via a web search. Is there a way I can find out who posted it ? I would like to use it as a guide for my own Harn map.
And when I did a web search for 'Harn World map'... Harn is about a tenth of the entire game world named Lythia. Eeek.
I did find several more of just Harn.
You didn't mention it, but there was a Harn Map topic on the Forum back in 2015 March, although I think only the PNG images were shown of the continent, not the FCWs. That WAS made using CC3 though, so maybe tagging the author might be worth trying?
That thread reminded me of the old "Interactive Atlas of Kanday" (Also labeled as "Kingdom of Kanday Electronic Atlas", guess they just couldn't decide on one name). It had a lot of the maps, including the Harn one in CC2 format. To bad it isn't available anymore. At least not from the official store, may find one on ebay or similar.
Ah, I left off the year. The web search showed 2015 for the upload here.
I couldn't figure out how to find out the username here.
My search didn't show an ebay entry. Out if print.
Ebay UK has a copy:
And there's this:
I only have Windows 10. Some of my older software doesn't work. I'll have to think about it.
Edit. My eyes have been bothering me recently. The optometrist said my lack of bifocals would cause a reduction in reading small print. I can get new eyeglasses next month.
I found some maps online. And I'm using this one, and the result so far.
I might delete the hexagons, and just use bitmap fills. I'm not sure at this point.
This might be it for awhile as I'm combining some sub-domains, and I don't really want to add yet another one. I might put this on my Crestar site, as a place to portal/dimension gate over to.
I almost forgot. I found out this is just part of that game world. There is a much larger continent to the right and lower right. I'll just be working on this.
I did finally check the link in that thread, it mentions an updated Harn map; however, that page now leads to a different item on Columbia Games' website. No problem, I got a Harn map elsewhere as you can see above.
Oh, the original Harn maps I remember, the foliage was in different shades of blue and purple.
I used the wayback machine to go to the old link. I was able to find
Mappa Harnica Toolkit
and the CC3 color palette
I had to compress the palette (pal) to zip because the forum doesn't permit a .pal file.
Hopefully this helps.
Thanks ! I'll check into it later this week. And I'll make backups of various files first.
I think I'll make local maps for Harn, I'll try the older style. But I have some things to do around the house this week.
Looks interesting. Thanks !
