Hi everyone! :D
Following from some ideas in last week's live mapping session, Ralf will be looking at using Fractal Terrains-generated material in CC3+ overland styles in tomorrow's live mapping session.
Come along and join in the chat here:

This is going to be so helpful. I have been fumbling around with different approaches (including Ralf's video on adding contour shadows), so I am really looking seeing what Ralf does here. Thank you for reading my mind. ;-)
I'll try to be watching this. Must be tired.
30 minute shout :)
You can always watch the recording, Jim ;)
I'm online. And over yonder. I'll have to download last week's video.
The previous post was more me trying to say something, and I'm not certain it made any sense.
@Royal Scribe - You might find this live mapping session from 2 years ago will help if you are looking for ways to add shaded relief to maps of this style.
That was fantastic !
Thank you! I stumbled across that video last week and it was super helpful. I also just discovered (no idea why I didn't notice it before) that FT can save in the Mike Schley style, which is a style I'm gravitating towards because it has so many options at the dungeon, city, and overland levels. We'll see. But even if I primarily use one style for main maps, I like the idea of my players going through ancient ruins and stumbling across an ancient map of another part of the world drawn in the parchment map style, for example.
I will be doing lots of experimenting to see what I like best.
I didn't know that it saved in styles. I'll look at that. Thanks !
