[Resource] Creating a Map from an Existing Source

BurlingtonBeast

I cleaned up this pdf [https://www.cartographersguild.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=80066&d=1455086355] by waldronate on cartographers guild. I don't have any images on it, but I feel my instructions are a bit easier to read. After jslayton let me know how to do this a week or so ago I felt that I should share.

Basically using either the linked, or attached pdfs and the program Wilbur, you can take an existing map and replicate it, or at least create a detailed derivative from it. By saving the resulting files as .mdr files they can be opened in fractal terrains 3 and then saved as campaign cartographer files.

Thanks for creating this!

Yes, thank you for taking the time to do this.

You didn't like my original write-up at https://www.cartographersguild.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=80066 ? It had pictures and everything! The program name and precipiton filter name are spelled correctly in it, too (it's not Wilber or precipitation).

I did like it, but the individual steps were a little hard to figure out for me since I am new to the program. I did link to the initial one you showed me. I just did this for myself and felt like sharing it.

Sorry about that. I get a little twitchy about certain things and today had already left me in an especially bad mood. https://www.cartographersguild.com/showthread.php?t=29412 is the main page for most of the Wilbur tutorials (and some FT tutorials).
