After seeing the work that Sue has done on the map of Michigan i asked about the token symbols, she has pointed me to the Annual 2015. there I have found the Ancient Realms symbols of CA106 and by the pfd of that years annual it says that CA107 had even more of these tokens for use. In CA106 I have found 52 tokens, i am unable to find the 120 tokens of CA107. I have used a search of my hard drive for CA107 and only get a sample map. Can you Point me in the right direction Please

Since those two issues are part of the same style, everything is grouped together under the CA106 banner. If I remember correctly, CA106 itself didn't come with any tokens at all, all of those where added to the style by CA107.
The tokens comes in two varieties, full color, and monochrome. I am not usre why, but the monochrome version doesn't seem to be in the symbol catalog for some reason, but you can find them if you point your symbol catalog window to @Symbols\Maps\Ancient Realms\Sites to load the .png's directly instead of the symbol catalog.

Thank you very much Sir !
Happy Mapping
Thanks for that insight on the monochrome tokens, Remy. I didn't realise they were even there.
I didn't either! Is that a bug that can be squashed, or is it intentional and we were just not seeing an option somewhere?
Here is the updated symbol catalog that includes the monochrome version of the symbols. It's gonna go into the installer in a bit.
Awesome! Thank you, Ralf :D
Thanks, Ralf!
@Ralf Danke
( And that is almost all of the words I know in German. )
Will you let us know here when the installer is updated? Or has it been already?
@Maidhc O Casain If you click the link above and download the file, then copy it into this folder to overwrite the existing file by the same name, then reopen CC3 - that will have the same effect as the installer.
@Symbols\Maps\Ancient Realms
Thanks Sue - for some reason I was struggling to figure out where to put that file.
You're welcome :) You know you've got the right place when Windows asks you if you want to overwrite the old file.
It is updated now!
I cannot see it on my registration page at present. Not that I am impatient or anything.
This is the full Annual 2015 (Volume 9) setup.
