  • CA212 Terrains with Symbols not working

    Hmmm. It worked for me. I had to delete the lines that were drawn and redraw my forests, but reinstalling a new download allowed me to then draw forests without the lines. We’ll have to see if staff has any advice. Good luck.

  • [WIP] Community Atlas, 1,000 Maps Contest: Villages in The Whispering Wastes of Haddmark, Peredur

    Just wait to you get to my city of San Francisco. I’ve read that we have more liquor licenses per capita than any city in the U.S. Last time I counted, my neighborhood alone had 17 bars in a four-block radius! I will have to find out what our number of residents per bar works out to be.

    if they serve as meeting place for the populace in the evenings, even 3 places isn't necessarily that extravagant for a population of say 300

    That's a good point. With my villages, I've tried to keep in mind how and where the locals would socialize. Taverns and inns are also good places to catch a performance of a wandering bard or troubadour, or a troupe of actors.

    Also, a small village might still get a lot of travelers passing through if it's on an important trade route, or along a route for a pilgrimage to a holy shrine. Or the last stop for adventurers trying their luck searching for treasure in the ruins of an ancient temple (or their first stop on the way home). My village has a winery, and I figured that merchants buying wine at the winery to resell in other towns and cities would want a place to spend the night before heading back with with their casks of wine.

  • The map of GnoccoCON '24, a local gaming event

    This is great! I love the idea of using CC3 for non-battlemap purposes. Street fairs, for example, could use it to show which streets are closed off, where vendor and food booths are located, and the location of performance stages.

  • Style Suggestions for Annuals

    Looka like we posted threads concurrently! Your Mesoamerican overland and dungeon requests would work well with my Jungle Adventurers suggestion. I would love Greco-Roman stuff. And I’ve been musing on designing a haunted house for Halloween, so your 1920s Horror House idea works wirh that. I love all of your suggestions but those were the ones I wanted to second.

    Thank you! Here's how it looks with the effects changes. And I've standardized the font sizes to three: 10 points for country names, 5 points for the three major cities, and 3.5 pts for everything else.

  • Are gift certificates available?

    Last year, I asked about the availability of gift certificates (my very first post, actually), and it was suggested to buy what you want to gift and then instead of registering it, forward the email with the registration code to the recipient.

    It's a good solution for those of us familiar with the site mechanics and know what we want to gift. It doesn't really work, though, if the buyer doesn't know what the recipient already has or would want to get, or if multiple people might want to gift something to the same recipient but were risking buying the same thing. (I am greedily thinking of myself as the recipient, and how people always ask me what I want...and how would I explain this process to folks who don't use ProFantasy?)

    Anyway, I wanted to revive this idea well enough before the holidays to see if ProFantasy had the ability and resources (knowing that there are many priorities competing for scant time) of creating a gift certificate option.

    Thank you!

    Appreciate your help and everyone else's! Looking forward to getting back to city and dungeon maps for a bit after this. ;-)
