  • To use the Vintyri project?

    I find it a nice resource. It should install fine with CC3+, but the procedures do require some manual unzipping of some zip files, so it is important to unzip these exactly as described in the guides, as ending up with one more or one less folder in the path is guaranteed to lead to red X'es.....

    The difference is because the command increases the number of pixels that will be handled in each pass. This means that a bigger chunk of your map is processed in each pass, and therefore requiring fewer passes overall.

    And yes, it is actually two blank lines at the end of that one. You may wonder why, since I spesifically said "only one line" in the video, but this is an exception, because the SPOLY command is actually split over multiple lines here, and the first blank line isn't repeating this command in this case, it is empty to signal no more coordinates, done drawing. But if I had added an extra, third line, here, then it would have tried to repeat SPOLY again, requesting coordinates from the user.

  • Import from FT3+ to CC3+ for D&D world

    Generally, for a whole-world map, Equirectangular works fine. But it distorts shape and area as you get closer to the poles, so it isn't as good a projection for areas far to the north or south. Here something more true to shape may be desired, like the Equal earth projection. For the polar regions themselves, something like the Lambert Azimuthal Equal-Area may be a good idea.

    Basically, each projection in FT3+ comes with a descriptive text, I advice you to read it.

    Hi @Ricko Hasche, please let me know when you are done with these, I can't start adding them to the atlas until I know you're done tinkering with them. I've added your other two threads.

    I love your maps, and you've done a good job keeping things to correct scale and everything else in order making it easy for me to add them to the atlas. Not everyones maps have been this easy to add. I have two small requests for future maps though:

    • Naming: Several of your maps are named something because you have a city symbol in the middle of the map bearing that name. This is a bit of a problem, because is someone is going to map that city later, their map should be named for the city name itself, the area map containing the city symbol should have a name based on the area (you've been pretty good at filling up your maps with names, so I am sure you can make up a name for the area too). An example of this is your Bughole map, but Bughole here is just a small place on the map, the map itself shouldn't be named for this. If you can't come up with a good area name, a name like Bughole environs or similar can also work. Also, it is easier for me if the filename is the proper map name, no numbering in the front, and no replacing spaces with underscores or the like
    • Lots of your maps have entities sticking out beyond the screen. This looks very bad in the atlas when people see the actual fcw file, so I always fix this, but it would make things quicker for me if this was already fixed. The COLLARDEL and COLLARAUTO commands are great ways of fixing this quickly.
