Can't find 1930s Travel Guides in Floorplans
Hello,
I'm trying to create a floorplan using the 2011 annual 1930's travel guide. I follow the PDF but blocks on the 1st step as the floorplan map style is not listed (there are a few others). I have a bunch of annuals, and oddly enoough I can open Berlin National Cartography FCW file.
Any idea?
Thanks,
Claude

Do you mean that it's missing from the first dialog?
it's missing on the 2nd step:
Yes, if you have it installed it should appear there.
Was your purchase part of a Humble Bundle, perhaps?
I should have that style thanks to HCC2 (https://profantasy.com/products/humble-bundle/maps-bonanza.asp) and can confirm that the style is also missing from the list in the wizard's map style list.
Ok, Ill report it to Ralf for you both.
Thanks! Yes it was Humble-Bundle.
@Claude Vervoort, and @roflo1 - Please can you both (individually) enter a Tech Support request via your Registration Page on the main website? Log in to your account and hit the tab called 'Support'.
Ralf will then be able to set you up with the missing files.
Thank you.
Thanks for sending in the support request. I've just double-checked that the 1930s Travel Guide style should really be in the Cartographer's Collection 2 setup (it does seem to be correctly in there). Please re-download that from this link and (re-)install it:
Does that add the style to the list in the Floorplans section
Still no luck.
I've entered a support ticket (sorry for the delay) along with some details I found (but didn't want to flood this forum).
Interesting. I have it from the HCC2. That was from the original time it was out and I have the floorplan.
If you have the folder and other files, then it just means that the template wizard file is missing. Check templates-floorplan-wizard to see if it listed. It is likely you just need those files.
Very strange, I'm not sure what is going wrong there. I've attached the missing template files. Please extract them into the folder /Templates/Floorplans/Wizard/. Does the style work after that, or has it missing bitmap fills or drawing tools?

I don't think this style has bitmap fills, but everything else seems in place once I added the templates.
Thanks Ralf!
It has a few bitmaps in it. The main one is CA52 Paper Bitmap, but there is also a small selection of others in there that might actually be there by accident. They are more typical of a DD3 dungeon map.
Ah, missed that one. CA52_Paper is present in all 4 resolutions.
