  • Forest Trail project - part 1

    What are trilathons?

    I like the idea of a beacon.

    A camp would be nice, but maybe a little too much work for the time, bearing in mind I have yet to do the standing stones and the waterfalls, but we'll see.

  • Reinstallation seemingly destroyed my map

    This may not be the problem, but check that you have the latest installers for all your software. Things that have been lying around in your download folders for a couple of years may not be all that useful.

    All installers should be run as administrator by right clicking the installer.

    Make sure you allow CC3+ to open at the end of any installation process where the default setting is for it to open, and that you reinstall the latest update at the very end - even if you've already reinstalled it once early on.

    This is very true, Joe. If all circles were as perfect as the day they were created I could just put fractalised polys of stone there and give them strange looking shadows, but there are also fallen and leaning stones that can give a much better feel for the nature of all the stones. Well, that's what I hope anyway.

    Ah yes, but that's a henge rather than a stone circle.

    I've gone back to working on the waterfalls for now, but I'll see if I have time.

  • Somehow separated terrain fill from the outline?

    The land and the coastline are two separate entities on two separate sheets. They start off as identical copies when you first draw them, but if you accidentally edit one without the other being visible with the node editing tools it's quite possible to make a difference this way.

    Comments on this forum will become more easy to edit once you have earned enough likes. It's one of the many ways we prevent spammers from making a relatively innocuous comment and then coming back to edit it later and fill it with whatever they want to advertise. It can be a bit inconvenient, but it works very well to protect the community as a whole.

  • Somehow separated terrain fill from the outline?

    You're welcome :)

    The add node tool will separate them, even if both are visible. It can only add a node to one entity at a time, so as soon as that is done they are no longer the same.

    Crashing can happen if you already have thousands of nodes in your map. This is more common if you are using an FT export, where the level of detail is almost ridiculously high.

    For now, if you pick the relevant SYMBOLS sheet before pasting the symbols should go on the right sheet.

    I expect Ralf will look at it again in the not too distant future.

  • [WIP] Continent Map using CC3+ MS Overland and other resources

    I think I like the one on the left better. The right one seems a too strong to me.
