  • Sea Contour Question

    That is correct, Goblixie - draw the shape as you have indicated in the bottom drawing.

  • The adventures of Jack

    Cities constructed entirely of cat trees beneath a giant glass dome to keep off the rain and make it nice and hot for lounging?

    Recreation fields filled with mice or butterflies?

    Or maybe they are pandimensional beings like the mice of Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy, and have worlds and galaxies in other dimensions - whatever they look like.

  • Folder removal

    I hadn't either, until Perrorist started talking about it. There's a website if you search the term "Fence Software". I don't want to put a link here to it because I don't know how reliable/safe it is. It pays to be cautious with third party software that messes with Windows.

  • Understanding color and the RGB Matrix effect

    Although it doesn't do the same thing, or even as many different things, the Colorize sheet effect may be easier to use than the RGB Matrix Process effect in some cases.

  • I Can't Buy Campaign Cartographer And Other Such Products

    I can confirm that.

    My currency happens to be British Pounds (£), but I have bought stuff from American sites. The exchange is dealt with by the bank so you don't have to worry about it.

  • Dark Fantasy Annual river-line weirdness

    Thanks for letting us know this, Wyvern. I will draw Ralf's attention to this thread for you.

  • Which Directory is for Fills?

    Very generally they all go in the ProgramData\Profantasy\CC3Plus\Bitmaps\Tiles folder, but there is a well developed structure in that main folder, as you can see below.

    The annuals each go in one of these subfolders (above) according to what basic type they are - overland in the Overland folder, dungeon styles in the Dungeon folder, etc.

    These are all the annuals in the Bitmaps\Tiles\Overland folder - all the overland annuals are there in their named subfolders.

    Perhaps it's worth noting here (although it wasn't part of your question), that we encourage all user-generated fills to be put in a folder called USER placed in the Tiles folder, rather than scattered all over the place within the subfolders. It's a lot easier to copy your stuff and keep it safe if you get a new PC or have to do a major uninstall reinstall at any point.

  • Best methodology for designing islands "by hand" with FT3

    Have you looked at The One Day Worldbuilder pdf included with FT? (ProgramData\Profantasy\FT35\Documentation)

    I'm not suggesting that you make a whole world, but it might help you get a few ideas about resolutions and methods.

    Remember that if you change the resolution on an existing world the shape of the landmasses may change quite a bit.
