  • WIP Novaregna

    I always love seeing maps from this style and this one is lovely. My only recommendation might be to add some shading to the ocean.

  • Winter Village style development (March 2022 CA issue)

    My only suggestion (which you are free to ignore because it is rather nit picking) is that the capstone of the chimney would be much too warm to be fully covered with snow. But honestly, I think that it looks amazing. ๐Ÿ˜

  • Top down symbols for overland maps.

    Just popping my head in to say that I agree with you Quenten!

    The disparity between flat terrain/rivers and front view mountains and hills often looks out of sync to me; like I'm seeing the map from 2 different perspectives (because I am). My solution has been using terrain fills to denote biomes and lighted bevels to denote mountains and hills.

    These are the best examples I have using ProFantasy fills. Having top down symbols instead would be a great addition. I'm wondering how they could be done.

  • Recommendation for SS6

    This is not a bug per say, but a highly recommended change: Have the Roof Frills go on their own Sheet so that when you sort the symbols, they don't all end up under the buildings.

  • 1000th Map Competition: Ober, Southern Scar

    Fascinating info. I love the forums here because we learn about the world as well as making maps of it. Thanks everyone!

    Thanks Sue! I've been quite busy babysitting a little dragon. Now that there's a new hatchling on the way I felt that I'd better figure out how to balance my personal interests with those of my little grand dragons. Time to teach the little one that my computer is not his toy. ๐Ÿ˜ƒ

  • Turn off shading?

    I'm still experimenting so both of your ideas will be tried. I've just added an HSL effect in addition to the global sun and transparency change and ended up with brown cliffs but had to cover the top portion of the symbols because of oddities in the color there. I'm having fun experimenting if nothing else. LOL.

    I missed Ralf's session this week but intend to watch it tonight. I learn so much from his tutorials so expect to have some revelations on the RGB Matrix. It's an effect that I forget about most of the time.

    So sad to hear this. Jim was a very important part of this community and I will truly miss his kindness and creativity.

    @Monsen Yes, an Atlas competition in his honor. Perhaps using the classic CC2 styles?
