  • [WIP] Adnati - Birdseye Continental

    Looks better now the grass is more blended :)

  • change background colour

    Oh I see.

    The polygon on the WALLS sheet will have to be scaled using SCA.

    The reason resize is set up the way it is, is because it's intended as a way to adjust the drawing area available for you to draw on - like extending the flaps of an extending table to spread the things on the table out a bit more. It's not actually a scaling tool for the contents of the map.

  • Live Mapping: Cosmographer Satellite

    I'm not sure. Maybe we should ask Ralf tomorrow.

  • [WIP] Adnati - Birdseye Continental

    I'm wondering if it would be better to have wider edge fade inner effects on a map of this scale - to blend the biomes into each other.

  • How to install CC3+ on a different Drive

    Hi Calibre :)

    Please report this issue to Tech Support. It's not a good idea to start moving folders around without technical advice.

  • Missing Fill and Castles Failure

    @Royal Scribe Yes. But use it when you are certain the map is finished.

  • shadows in a top-down cave

    Well, thanks Don, but I think we should wait to see if I got the right end of the stick here ;)

  • Combine Path causing crash

    This may or may not have anything to do with the problem, but as I worked along that red line I discovered a piece that was duplicated. The only difference was the entity tag number, so I used that to delete the first and shorter one.

    I will stop here because I can see that Don has commented before I really got going.

    EDIT: I wasn't having any trouble all the way along that red line myself, until I got to that duplicated section.

    EDIT2: One thing that strikes me is that you mention using D or return to finish the command. You don't need to do that with Combine Paths. Just right click once when you finish adding all the pieces together. The only extra thing you need to do is if you hit a line that's the wrong way around and have to switch it's direction using F or S.

    EDIT3: I am now very curious to see if you can join thse lines together, knowing what you do now about the way to complete the command, and with the awkward duplicate part removed. If you still can't join things let me know.

  • Combine Path causing crash

    You don't need to press enter. Just right click. That ends the command.

    This is what the Tome says about using Combine Paths:

  • Playing Card County Maps

    I wonder if they would sell, if any of us made a new set of the counties of England and Wales using one of these custom playing card printing sites mentioned by Taustinoc.
