A small farming community that is having an issue with the local wise woman. She's blighting their fields unless thay meet her demands. Using the Darklands City Style (thanks Sue!) this time. Is the blighted field on the right hand side believable?

@Royal Scribe I had completely forgotten to add the Wall Shadow effect, thanks for the reminder. I've been trying to get rock face/cliff face type features in various maps for about a year now. I tried a lot of things using the various rock drawing tools in several CC3+ dungeon and city styles but it wasn't getting there. PBE Games has a numner of different textures, mostly rock types, that can change the look a lot. I have not moved beyond figuring out the texture scaling and picking the base texture. The lower map is a different texture pack.

Playing with lighting in a cave complex. Some of the shadowing still causes my perfectionist brain fits but its pretty much what I want. Comments, suggestions constructive criticisms always welcome.

The walls across corridors are intentional, it's how I do secret doors...

Happy New Year All

I am creating a night time encounter in a graveyard for a VTT game and LoopySue's Creepy Crypts is turning out to be awesome for the task. I just realized that we never asked for any corpses so I had to raid DD3+ for my dead body. This is WIP, plenty more details to add but I wanted to share and see if there were any suggestions from the community. Map without the shadow effect on is down below

And without the night time effects

The party has left the dimension! Travel to the resting place of the famed magical sword known as The Darkness in a tomb buried kilometers below the world's surface, requires passage through an exra planar gate. The first step on the journey is a way station in Oblivion where entrance to the tomb is accessed through a through a second gate. But which is the right one?

DD3 Color and Forest Trails with third party magic circles.

Shadows for the camp fire are funky but otherwise ok

Toook another run at this with SS2A with an assist from Dark Cities. I think I like this approach more.

Thank you, Wyvern. I appreciate the insights into improving the design of the building. I will take a run at a 2.0 version of this at a later date but for now I have a D&D game to GM this week and I need the map done. I gave in and added windows to the ground floor and nixed the upper story. I'll take these learnings and use them for my next "frontier" Inn. For the moment, I give you the Shaggy Shep Inn and Tap Room. Center of life in the hamlet of Kilmeade.

Cheers.

I've been playing and failing at making ligthed dungeons for quite some time. The secret is to not have a Directional Wall Shadow effect on the walls of your rooms that you apply the Wall Shadow, Point Light Setup and Final effects to. Must admit, I did not see anything specific about that in the Tome but I resorted to shutting effects off one at a time and.... BINGO...

Still needs quite a bit of work but I can FINALLY make a lighted dungeon....

I think LoopySue is a genius. The varous symbols and styles that she has created have enable so many possibilities. SS2 + Creepy Crypts. The party is in a rowboat leaving a cave complex and this is the exit. What coul possibly go wrong?
