That is the video, and yes, as far as I know, it's only interactive (which is what I meant) in CC3+. @Monsen @Ralf do you guys know if it's possible to export the hyperlinks from the index so they work outside of CC3+ or can it only be done manually in something like Adobe or a DTP program?

As Sue says, it looks really good.

Re your earlier comment about the mountains; have you tried softening the edges a bit by playing around with the effects, particularly the outer glows? Alternatively, you could reduce it to 2 layers, 1 for the base mountains with a bevel effect and another for the snow topped peaks.

What you see is what you get, Jim.

I've got to make a few other things; pillars, some different shaped rooms or room parts and so on. I've copied most of the symbols from the style to my Maptools resource folder so I can add the traps and what not in as neccessary and make sure they're hidden.

I'm leaning towards the thicker version myself but then the floor makes it look a little bit busy, I could use a transperency effect on the floor so it's not as "in your face" I s'pose...

Thanks Sue,

I thought it would be much more difficult…`

Off the topic of annuals and on the topic of feature suggestions, I'd like to suggest CC4 be cross-platform. Come-on let's show Mac users some love!

Wishful thinking on my part...

@Kertis Henderson

You misunderstand me (refer to my intial post).

I have absolutely no issue with CC3+ (other than it is not a cross platform application😉) and have used it for commercial and personal projects, as my gallery will attest, over the last four or so years. It allows me to make maps quicker and of far superior quality than anything I could produce using traditional or digital (Photoshop, Illustrator and the like) drawing tools.

My comments refer specifically to WINE, that is the ‘stable’ version I mention. To be fair, they are a bit harsh as the WINE documentation makes it clear it may not work with all programs. In my opinion, the latest 'stable' version of WINE should include the installation of additional components, particularly those required for known issues. If it does not, there should be comments to that effect, i.e "Note: Some versions of InstallAware may generate a run-time error, if this occurs please download and install VC Runtime blah blah blah".

As I said, I am no longer as computer 'savvy' as I once was, hence my comments. After your suggestion to download and install VC Runtime I Googled it and came across the post I linked. After reading that post, I decided that it was 'too' hard for me.

I am currently working with our IT support company to resolve my remote access issues, which if successful, will make this whole discussion moot.

Not sure, I deleted it. but I used the latest version from WineHQ 9.something?

I also downloaded and installed VCRUN2019 before re-installing the trial version of Crossover and got the same runtime error.

The wife and I are away for the weekend; I’ll try CC3+ on the laptop and see how that goes.

Thankfully, my Remote Desktop issues have been sorted, so I can leave things as they are.

Well, I'm going to say my issues were likely 70%-30%, maybe 80%-20%, user v machine. My Mac does suffer from performance issues and has done since new (my new HP mini desktop at work is blisteringly fast in comparison); I think it's time to do a complete re-install of the OS and them migrate selected APPs and data from my Time Machine Back-up.

Part of the problem I think is that I copied my old Mac in it's entirety when I set up the new one so there's probably lots of rubbish in places I'm unaware of causing issues. I timed the startup process after a shutdown last week and it was well over 4 minutes - that's not right.

Must've had a power outage at work over the weekend, as my work PC was off. So, to ensure I have reliable access, I installed the base CC3+ on my work laptop last night as a test and it's fine, I'll be doing the full install. Just have to get used to the smaller screen - there'll no doubt be lots of zooming in...
