  • Map using Sarah Wroot Style

    It is in the very first annual. And it is fairly easy to draw more symbols if you need. Though each symbol has 2 sheets to it.

    See this video by Ralf on that annual.

  • Ideas for future Annuals

    I would like to second Royal Scribe's suggestions, and add a few of my own.

    I would like a Polynesian / Australian based overland annual.

    I would dearly love the Spectrum style to be one of the additions to the basic CC3+, and for the monthly expansions to alternate between Mike Schley and Sue Daniels for the Spectrum style.

    I would like extra house symbols (including the house tool) compatible with CD3A styles - perhaps an addition with far eastern, south Asian and other styles, as well as additions to the Gothic/classic/wooden, Mideast/thatch styles. Perhaps more unique buildings, like blacksmiths, warehouses, apartment blocks, inns and taverns, stables etc. As well as street furniture compatible with this CD3A style - benches, flowerpots, pillories, gallows, stalls, etc.

    And especially more unique buildings for Greco-Roman - bath houses, temples, shrines, insulae (Roman apartments- need well off, middle class and poor), villas, Colosseum, hippodromes, theatres, stadium.

    I would like to see conversions of the old city, temple and castle sets, just as Sue did with Beaumaris castle.

    I very much would like to see more stuff for Character Artist - especially different stuff for them to carry, and adornments on the clothes, and ideally, semi-side on portrait faces and torsos (a very big task). I can get fatter and thinner using asymmetric tool, so that isn't a problem. But things showing aging would be nice, like wrinkles, etc

  • Very Minor Interface Tweaks

    First: When choosing Shaded Polygon by Edge in the Polygon drop down menu, it is a bit annoying to then have to type in editshading (if you even remember the command) in the command line - could editshading also be part of the dropdown menu?

    Second: When choosing fractal polygon or polygon line, can a drop down menu option (ie right click) be added to edit the fractalise inputs.

    Third: Could drop down menu (right click) on the erase button be added to just erase the top entity of the selection. Sometimes there are unintended duplicates. While I can deal with these by first clicking the top visual edit button, then Del then P, it would be so much quicker if I could just delete the top entity of the selection where I have had accidentally created multiple copies.

    Finally, can the List command produce an output with about double the font size, and also perhaps a bigger window as well.

    These are the most common procedures I use that would help a lot if put as drop down menus.

    Yes, that missing tree is SO SO obvious now - just can't help seeing the gap once it has been drawn to my intention.

    No, that is OK. I shouldn't have used the word fatties, sorry. Just wanted to let people know that by changing the x and y axis independently, you can get useful distortions - from severely anorexic, to morbidly obese (all medical terms).

  • Using Mike Schley symbols

    I have made my own symbol catalogues for MS - and now no more problems

  • Watabou City REVISED (annual 157)

    I'm hoping people will try it out, and let me know of any bugs, or suggestions, so I can then talk to @Ralf about a revision of the annual. And I am sure he will also have even better ideas than me.

  • Starfinder rpg site, with maps

    Jim is in hospice care, at his own request. I think Sue is in constant communication with his sister, as am I. He can talk and is sort of with it. I am sure that if any of you would like to write him a letter or card, he would appreciate it. The address to send any mail is

    Jim Pierce

    c/o 2955 Gladden Lane West

    Alexandria

    Alabama 36250

    USA

    His sister feels that contact with people from his hobby would help cheer him up. I have received permission from her to give out this address.

    Do you mean make the farms smaller, or bigger?

    Here is the map at present. I am happy to take on board your suggestion. I guess the paddocks are almost a mile wide at present!

  • Is there a runic font?

    That is exactly what Explode Text does, but it makes editing them more difficult. SO make sure you get it right before exploding. I did that in the Atlas Magumul Empire of minotaurs in the north-western part of Artemisia.
