    Filters doesn't work with custom templates unfortunately, but it should be easy to locate just by typing cc3 in the search box.


    I'll mention that when I rewrite the tutorial. That first part was written before I made the template at all, so the mentions of it was just edited in later.

    I've edited the first tutorial now, updated it for VS 2022 and tested it on both Windows 10 and 11, so everything should be correct there.

    As for the part 2 project, seems like there was an error there where the project no longer contained the references to the XP toolkit, and was otherwise reverted to default values, which is why the includes didn't work. The project needed to be changed to use an installed SDK, and the XP references put back in. I've uploaded a fixed version now.

    I've also made a minor change to my CC3+ XP template, now it should default to the latest installed SDK instead of targeting a specific version. You can download the new one using the same link as before.

  • Error Message with Ancient Tombs Isometric Map Style

    I don't think you actually need Perspectives to take advantage of the issue itself, since it comes with proper symbols for both walls and floors. But you need it to use the 3D projection command, and it also gives the advantage that you can draw additional isometric shapes manually.

    Yea, messing up your map is kind of easy when you are given direct access to the raw data. Part of the fun :)

  • Annual Ancient realms + Local Area Maps + Mike Schley Valley Landscape

    Looks nice, but I am not sold on the fields here. They look a bit out of place.

  • Chart question

    Not sure exactly how his setup is, but it looks like he's just added two filled polygons to a sheet that is on top of everything else, and then added text and decorative symbols on top of that again. Probably 3 or 4 custom sheets. (background, text, symbols, border)

  • Community Atlas - Doriant - Galahais - The Morstarik

    Roads look much better now, really makes a huge difference when you are not seeing part of the road inside the marker circle, but the two medium cities between the red lables in the middle of the map still looks like they could need the same treatment as the rest.

    You've got a spelling error, a semicolon has snuck it's way into the Wizard-realm.

    The red dotted line actually goes on top of the floating island symbol at A. This looks slightly weird.

    Text is much easier to read now, but I still find 'C' and to a certain degree 'A' a bit hard yet. They could do with a more powerful glow.

  • I want to uninstall CC3+, I cant

    Contact technical support using the form on your registered user pages. They'll sort you out.

  • Copying from one map to another

    Make sure you actually finish the copy command. The most common mistake here is that after selecting the entities to copy, people don't realize that CC3 is now asking for the copy origin. If you fail to do this, the selection is never copied to the clipboard. Always keep an eye on the command line, it tells you what CC3 is expecting from you at any given time.

  • Forgotten Realms Interactive Atlas repairs.

    Well, they are doing a good job of telling what the problem is and how to fix it for anyone interested in giving their own install a touch-up. Anyone who owns the atlas product can follow these instructions. They can't share the actual maps for copyright reasons, so this is a great second-best resource for fixing things yourself.
