Does anyone have a Greyhawk underdark CC2 or CC3/CC3+ map ?

I found a CC2 one by Frongoid, but there are errors in it. Some hexagon encounter areas are correct, but some are off, one row.
Instead of taking the next few weeks, moving hexagons hither and yonder, I was hoping someone had already made such a corrected map.
As an example: they had D/9 correct, it goes out to horizontal row 000, but C/9 is mapped to C/8.
Thanks !

I'm going to have to leave this for some amount of time. I tried working on one from scratch... mine was worse than the one I found. I think my eyes crossed a couple of times to.
I did try some hunting around Jim, but the best I could find were PDFs or straight images only. It might be possible to use an image superimposed over the CC2 map you found to correct that one though?
I found several png and jpg maps, but they don't line up exactly.
One is slightly rotated about 2 degrees from vertical. The other most of the encounter areas are correct, and some aren't. I am going to be busy, but I might be able to look at it this week.
I'm not getting any feedback on the other forum... posting there for over a week so I'm dropping this effort.
Not something I have in my collection either.
If another ever existed and was posted online, it was probably posted int he old mailing list, which Yahoo have shut down the archives a few years ago. I have a partial archive, but couldn't find anything matching there.
Thanks.
I was trying to help several people on another forum. But after over a 100 views in the past week no responses to my work, lots of visits to my site I built just to help them, nothing. So I posted there I'm walking away from helping them.
So, two people suddenly posted there and asked me to continue. Sigh, so I guess I will
You have to be more patient with groups than with individuals ;)
Well, that forum over yonder is full of grouchy people who do mostly contain whatever is bothering them.
Any Who, I'm just going to make an Underdark map from scratch. I'll post it as I get somewhere.
Sounds good. Looking forward to it :)
Bit of a pain to get started... hexagons have taken a dislike to me, but I think I got it.
much larger in my gallery. I'll title the new album Greyhawk.
Of the hundreds of files with Greyhawk in the name in my archives, none also have the word underdark with it.
I looked at the website. Their search showed some results, buts light yellow on a white background. I couldn't read it. I'll try again when I get the chance.
There are a number of things I need to do before the end of this month, and those are off line.
I have to admit, the Greyhawk Underdark maps I found seemed pretty confusing overall as well, and I'm not sure they were all showing the same things anyway. Of course, some of that may have been just down to poor image resolutions, though I'd guess it wouldn't help I'd never come across this setting before! The whole World of Greyhawk concept only really started after I'd begun drifting far away from D&D (around 1980). Prior to that point "Greyhawk" was just the name of the first supplementary D&D booklet to the original set of three as far as I was concerned 😁.
Glad you'd managed to get the hex grid sorted at least. Be interested to see how you mange further with this, certainly.
I looked at the website above using my desktop computer, nothing on the Underdark map.
The map I made above goes up past row B3. I added an extra island.
The top most part of the river should be 8 hexagons long, but it is 6. I'll have to figure out what happened.
Larger in my gallery.
Well, I went back a few versions, and added the columns on the top as well.
Placement this time is more careful counting of hexagon rows and columns.
3600 vertical pixels in gallery.
Is there a way to turn off the 'Did this answer your question ?' question ?
Forum moderators should be able to convert this post from a Question to a "regular" Discussion (documentation is not 100% clear, but I did find instructions to do the opposite).
Is that what you want?
I assume the list of "accepted answers" would be reset.
Yup, that would be great. I clicked on yes in the hope it would resolve the question bit.
I've converted it.
Thanks !
So, no question that's resolved it then 😎
Nope, have to make my own map. I'm sure I can handle that.
The 'put it together yourself storage shed ' arrived today. So I'm not sure just how much time I'll have for mapping. Being tired in the evening isn't going to help either.
Also read about where that allegedly came from - holy crap, it's amazing it even fits together even sorta right.
I did find this in one of the old books that might be able to help. Now you just need a TARDIS or Randall and his map.
I have the module the map is in, I was just hoping I didn't have to make a cc3+ version from scratch, but I'll have to.
Lol would be scary if you actually wrote to that address and got a valid reply (from WOTC). :D
Nah, I'm not worried about them.
Anyway, update. 3600 pixel vertically map in my gallery. I fixed a few mistakes, and extended the Sunless Sea up a bit as i have 4 more rows of hexagons than there are on the original map.
Unmapped and mapped refers to what is in the original Module.
When I finish this part of the map, and then I'll add in the mapped areas done by the folks over on the other forum.
I did dig up a bunch of hard copy stuff that was in my shed. No CC3 maps though..and I did see someone using Ikarnate that mapped a bunch of stuff not sure if that helps but will glance and see if they mapped these modules. I started an Ikarnate account and created one map before coming back and getting my license updated from Profantasy..only reason I even have visibility there. Though I do play with Dungeon Alchemist which would 120% be the wrong tool the the maps your asking about.
