Ricko, these are amazing. Each one that you do gets better and better and I find your maps to be very inspiring. Thank you for sharing!

Have you looked RPGMapshare.com that Jeff Alberts'(aka Steel Rat) runs? I've used many of his modern and sci-fi symbols for my husband's cyberpunk game. You have to look through the galleries to find the useful bits, but there are some there.

I love Perspective maps and you have done an incredible job on this one. Wow! Thanks so much for sharing. This is truly an inspiration for me.

Thank you! Glad you like the completed bits.

For future reference, when I put WIP in the thread title, it means that it is a Work In Progress. I do this for a couple of reasons. When it is a complex map it gives the opportunity to get input as the map progresses and before it gets too far along for easy changes. It also lets new users see the steps taken to create a map and to ask questions along the way. I almost always do a WIP thread if I'm posting a map here on the forums. I'm a slow mapper and really only finish a couple of maps a year for the community since I'm also making maps for my game world at the same time. Posting a WIP lets me participate in the forums rather than just showing up two or three times a year to add a map.

Welcome to the forum and thanks for sharing a beautiful and well thought out map!

Really, the selection method is a personal choice. If you prefer the select, select, action method then you can of course change it in Tools>Options: Selection Method. It's why the debate here isn't the thing (unless of course they plan to take out settings that are already part of the base software). I personally just don't want to loose the action then selection method. ?

@pkfrye I'm really sorry but I have to back out of this competition. A recent OS update hosed my system. I tried to roll back and my problems grew. I tried online image repair tool and my problems continued to grow. The harder I tried to fix things the worse they became until startup was taking over 20 minutes and my dis and cpu were running 100% continuously. Sigh. So I made sure my backups were up to date and then wiped it all down to the ground. I'm up and running again. I now have the horrific task of reloading everything. Sometimes I hate computers.

Oh dear, I have to download and install everything from PF. I wish there was an easier way to install CC and it's zillion add-ons. I dread this so much that it's going to be a while before I do it.

@jslayton I'm not basilgass, but here is an image of a modern CAD GUI. I assume this is what he means.

I am not fond of the dark theme that many modern software packages use, but then, I'm old and my eyes just don't see dark on dark like younger eyes might.

The first floor looks awesome!

However, the stones for the steps at the entrance seem huge, like one of the larger ones is @2 meters. A person's foot could slip between the cracks, especially a child's. This is a situation where scaling a symbol up doesn't work for the actual map scale.

Oh no! We've identified the source of the Great Vertshusen Fire of (insert game year)! Guess old Pappy wasn't thinking when he left his sacks of flour next to the wood fired stove. Before you knew it half the city was in ash!

People do stupid people things. I think I'll leave it for a touch of realism. 😉
