  • [WIP] August Competition - Pappy's Pub

    Next round of updates.

    After looking at the original map again and noting where the chimneys and street are, I've decided to move things around a bit. I liked @DaltonSpence idea of moving the kitchen door to the side wall and had to move the chimney's to the side more. The chimney location looks wrong to me now but fits with the city roof so...blah!

    The Pub roof is on its own sheet so can be shown or hidden at will.

    Still lots to do...

  • Community Atlas 1000th map Competition - with Prizes [August/September]

    I love competitions, not because I love competing, but because they push me to actually make time to create a map. So I'll be entering the map of the village of Ober in the Southern Scar.

  • How long have you been using Campaign Cartographer?

    I started with Campaign Mapper from the Core Rules 2 software but when I could not get it to print because of old drivers I got CC2-v5. I think this was sometime in the late 90's. The software is a windows 95 version so dates are uncertain.

    I've been away for a few years and am just trying to get back into gaming and mapping.

  • Dungeon Level Symbols

    @Maidhc O Casain I can hear him purring right through the picture. 😻

    @Monsen I don't think I'm up for an animal annual, at least not until far into the future.

    @Quenten I will include more single beds.

    The problem with dogs is that there are too many breeds plus the crossbreeds. If you have a breed that you would like to see, I'll do my best with it. If I get no suggestions, or just can't get it right, this is what will be included in this set of symbols. I might try an Irish Wolf Hound, but other than that, what you see is what you get.

    The more that I work on these symbols, the more I realize that sometime next year is the most realistic timeline.

    I guess this part of this imaginary world doesn't use hedgerows. 😊

    I have a 50 foot wide swath of heavy brush and trees that is on a 40 to 50 degree grade behind my house. This is where the raccoons, groundhogs, rabbits, chipmunks, deer, turkeys and wild mice and rats live. It certainly doesn't stop them. Curse all vegetable eating varmints!

  • Dungeon Level Symbols

    I'll consider adding just the frames, but mosquito netting might not make it into the final catalog.

    I've just reacquainted myself with setting up vari-colored symbols so I'll probably disappear for a while again as I finish up the beds and other bedroom furniture. (I think I'll move onto the parlor/sitting room/solar once done with the bedroom. Hmmm. Or maybe the great hall. Not Sure.)

  • Compass Roses

    Sounds like there is interest in expanding this into something that would be suitable for an annual. I think if I did that I would want to make them more compatible to current mapping styles. Maybe make them a bit more hand drawn looking while still keeping the same level of detail. Scale bars are needed, and I like Remy's idea of legend boxes too.


    I'll experiment and come back to see what you think.

  • Community Atlas - The Staggering Moose - Interior

    I just drew the moose in CC3 using the 40% black transparency, then added a bevel to it. You can grab it from the snowy map and just copy/paste it where ever needed. :)

  • 1000th Map Competition: Ober, Southern Scar

    Finished laying out the areas on the west side of the stream but will add shading, walkways and paths as finishing touches. I prefer not to add too much detail until I'm sure of my layout. I've just started on the eastern side.
