Thanks, everybody.

It's post-apocalyptic Earth set in the US. GM is using 5E rules for it. Basically, the Solar System has entered a region of space where the laws of physics have changed so that magick works, supernatural creatures exist and so on. Fun, so far heh heh.

thanks

Well, is my face red. I never paid attention to the obvious fact that the buildings in Watabou style are on 2 sheets. Previous maps I've done, I had to do the process I explained above---well, I believed I did. So, to be clear (and I'm doing this as I type) hide the Buildings outline sheet (Literally, SYMBOLS BUILDINGS OUTLINE) to select only the brown buildings. THEN simply select the buildings you want to change color and then do so.

I was happy to do it the laborious way, oh yes. I found my own way LOL. I have one excuse: trying to post on the forums after very little sleep while dealing with a monstrous cold 😓

I just love this program! Once you get yourself into it and realize what you can do, man it just ROCKS heh.

thanks

oh PS: when I have the buildings and new key done, there will be an update.

Cal

Argh, Ms. Sue

Now I'm going to have to halt new version of my continent, Estonisch, to use this style!

ARGH!

😁

Strange but some of those fills are close my own.

Nowhere near as good as yours, of course. So, I'll put this on hold till the new style comes out! I can't wait.

thanks, Ms. Sue

Cal

Oh, Ms. Sue

Speaking of mountain symbols/fills. Could we have a top down volcano option?

Cal

Gonna have to steal this for my game....sorries!

😁

Cal

Thanks to both...I figured out it was self-executing.

As for drawing the forests, I think I'm going to try watabou style for the jungles. It's easier, looks good and I can always colorize it a bit.

Cal

Okie dokie

Just keep in mind that it's not finished heh.

Geoff

Umm, should I explain how I did this, you think, Ms. Sue or anyone?

I'm not sure it would be helpful or redundant 😁

I've often wondered if anyone would like to know how I do my maps. Only Dak has expressed a brief interest and I got that post late so felt it would be pompous to answer well after the fact heh heh.

So, I'll just put this out there: if you want the FCWs of any of my maps, I'd be happy to oblige. Or, any explanations, etc.

thanks

Geoff

I honestly can't remember! I know it's been a few years, but I can't pinpoint it in my mind. Unfortunately, I can't even remember how I stumbled on CC3+. I think it was when I watched a Sweeny vid and I knew I had to have it. Just an awesome program.

I've had extensive training in Graphic Arts and Advertising design using Illustrator, Photoshop and so on, so it wasn't as difficult for me to learn CC3+ as it may have been for others; but, I still have a great deal to learn. There are, of course, aspects of CC3+ that I find 'missing' from my Illustrator/Photoshop days, but despite my OCD, I've learned to deal with all that heh heh.

All-in-all, just love it.

Cal

Now, this map is making me want to revise my opinion of that style. Excellent!

Geoff
