Still working on my Traveller site. Nothing uploaded yet, but I have about 100 planet maps on 4 sectors. Just have to do the uwp for each, post articles, and do a few solar system maps.

  • I don't see the Mike Schley elven symbols in my downloads.

    I really think it needs its own entry in the download section. I keep forgetting where it is located. I did a search and came here for its location.

    Preliminary ground floor. 500' x 400'

    The basement and sub-basement will attach to this map, off to the west so they don't have to deal with water from the northeast side of this map. Water sheets don't currently have effects. Yes, the East-West passageway goes under the main entrance passageway.

    Okay, this is it for the day. The white marble floor areas are where a would be Lord of the local elves convinced this group to make for him. Let yawned and said okay. Then they found him bathing in the drinking water lake. Out he went.

    But they left the rooms be, in case a very nice guest came by. Lorldy manners, but didn't want to bathe in the drinking water.

    I'll skip the ground floor in the following list as I put it up yesterday.

    Area map.

    the_mithlas_holes_area.fcw

    The Gathering Place. Nomadic tents of elves. They tell anyone who sees them, they are merchants. They might even sell you something. Or say they are on their way to buy more goods and are currently out.

    Their real reason is to head, not bunched up nor all at once but to eventually all arrive in the same week, to The Gathering Place. A ruined tower, all that is left of what they believe was once a might elf city.

    There aren't enough ruins to justify such a claim, but they just 'know' that the stones that were there were carried off by evil forces to build something Evil. This could even be true. This has been passed down to them and their relatives. Is it true ? Well, they have found traces of foundations a mile away from this tower. And sometimes late at night they been awakened by a distant elf flute playing mournfully. Those that seek where the sound comes from, and never heard of again.

    the_mithlas_holes_hillentrance.fcw

    Ebereth is just off to the Northeast. A small thriving community. Years ago some folks went to The Mithlas Holes to see why they hadn't been to town. The survivors of this trip said no one lived there anymore.

    Giants' Garden. A supposed area where giant's once grew food. The occasional ear of corn brought to town are usually ignored. Corn on the cob cannot grow to be as big as a house.

    Elf Encampment. A group of elves who travel about this area, keeping a distant eye on MIthlas Holes.

    The Mithlas Holes. A series of rooms that once had a thriving community of elves.

    the_mithlas_holes_entrance.fcw

    various broken up rocks. Dead trees. Two felled trees. An abandoned and falling down keep. All surround the entrance to these caves.

    I made it again, using different symbols in different places. I tried to vary them as I placed which ones where. The ones 'in back' are scale 3.0, the ones 'in front' are scale 6.0. The map is 3000 across, so 3.0 is the default.

  • Is there a discord? Also struggling with this awful controls, especially when it comes to floors

    Here is how I line up floors.

    Start a map in ghe size I want each floor to be in. As an example: 500 x 400.

    Save that map as map01, then save as the same one as map02. Do as many as you want.

    Next load back in map01. Using the room and corridor tool, place rooms and corridors. It does take some getting used to.

    As an example, spiral stairs in a room lower left corner of the map.

    Save that.

    Load map02. Make room in the same location as the one in map01. Then using the same tools, make different size rooms, connect the with corridors.

    I hope that made sense as I'm half asleep and auto correct is going to.

    Im going back to sleep.

    If I made errors I think someone can mention where I went wrong.
