Hi Zov :)

This is perfectly normal, as you can see from my list.

There are no icons for either SS1 or SS2.

This is because both these sets add additional styles to CC3+ and DD3 respectively. They are extensions rather than stand alone add ons.

EDIT: In addition to that information you could be forgiven for thinking that I don't have all the annuals. I appear to be missing Annual Volume 18 and 19 (this year's annual), but that is probably because I have installed all the monthly issues and not the full end of year installer.

There is a second Token Treasury, but I've never needed it so it's not currently installed.

You can purchase the annuals either through the selling pages here, or by picking them from the list of Offers when you log into your registration page.

If you buy the current year's annual it will not yet have been compiled into a single download, so you will have all the separate installers - one for each month.

It's important that none of the Profantasy assets are moved or renamed, but I don't think that's what you are talking about.

Are all your custom symbols in folders that live inside the "ProgramData\Profantasy\CC3Plus\Symbols" folder? Possibly in a subfolder of the Symbols folder called User (or some such appropriate name for things that are not part of Profantasy's asset collection)?

EDIT: If they are and that's all correct, have you moved the FSC (the symbol catalogues you made) relative to the symbols - ie, moved them to a different position in the folder hierarchy. That will also break the references.

This week in Live Mapping Ralf will be looking at the December Annual issue and its expanded outdoor battlemap options.

Or watch it here if you prefer.

This thread is not monitored during the live show, but you can put your comments or and ask your questions here any time.

It looks like a seam between separate passes of the export where the sheet effects are wider than a single pass. CC only sees the effect if the polygon or symbol causing it is visible in the same pass.

Type EXPORTSETMPPP and hit ENTER on your keyboard. In the command line you will find the default setting, which I believe is 4000000 (4 million). Type 40000000 (40 million) and hit ENTER. Then try another export.

The "MPPP" part of that command refers to the maximum pixels per pass, so you are increasing the depth of each pass by a factor of 10. This should get rid of most if not all of those artefacts.

I'm only getting it on renders that need more than one pass. Otherwise it's fine.

You might be experiencing the same thing as Ricko a couple of days ago.

Check your EXPORTSETMPP value. If it's only 4 million type "40000000" (40 million), hit ENTER, and try again.

The Description of Rights and Limitations in the EULA indicates how many PCs you can have the software installed on at any one time. This should answer the question for you. https://www.profantasy.com/service/license.asp

On the surface of it, it sounds to me like you should be ok having it installed on both machines, but I dont' know your exact circumstances or how you will be using the app.

If you decide to go the commercial route in the future you can always uninstall it from 'the other PC' (whichever one you chose), and carry on - or you could get a second set of licences if you want to keep both.

If you have any other questions or end up in a situation that doesn't seem to be covered by the EULA, please contact the General Manager or use the Licencing Questions contact from this page. We're always here and happy to help.

The easiest way is to create a new map in the style of your choice, create a new sheet called BITMAP or TRACE, and a new Layer called the same thing, make sure both of these are active and import the bitmap image into it using Draw, Insert File.

Follow the instructions in the command line to paste it correctly. You can either click for the corners or enter coordinates.

Becaues it's on it's own sheet you can move the image up or down the stack of sheets and give it transparency using a Transparency sheet effect on that sheet.

...

Alternatively, you could painstakingly convert the image into one suitable for use with TRACE or TRACED, but that takes time and patience in a bitmap editor as you would need to make it very high resolution all parts of it either opaque or clear and well defined. If as you say it's a relatively simple map it might be more a waste of time than simply importing it and hand tracing the components directly into your drawing.

Hi Joseph :)

Try it with a mouse first.

I've tried it both ways because I use Intuos Pro tablets for my work, but I never use it in CC3. Mouse is simply easier.

Having said that, I know of at least one mapper who uses it on a Windows OS screen tablet and seems to be quite happy with it.
