  • Replacing MS Sans Serif(8)

    I'm no expert on fonts, so take this with a grain of salt. It might be possible to rename the font that you have to be the font that you want. Here's a page that describes the process. I don't know about the legality.

  • Tell me all about your DnD campaigns!

    @Royal Scribe, have you considered running something online? For example Roll20 or PlayByWeb (shameless plug). I've used both, and they can be good outlets for this kind of creativity. My Roll20 games that haven't been pre-made have mostly used my sci-fi maps. It's gone well overall.

  • Tell me all about your DnD campaigns!

    Hello! I made a new world within the last year. I made a map of the western half of the continent in which they started. I kept the details of the other lands sparse. When the party needs information about other places, I can reference material or make it up to fit their needs. That way, when I make another map, it fits their needs. I love doing it that way. I kept the city names spread out and rather sparse so that I can zoom in CC3 and make smaller maps with a little more detail as they explore. It's gone well.

  • What got you into cartography?

    As a child, my family went to Lake Erie for a short trip. At one of the shops, I saw on the wall a reproduction of an old depth map of Presque Isle Bay from the 18th century. I was fascinated. It was much different than the maps in my school books. It told a story with lines and numbers about the changes over a century of nature and civilization. Most importantly, I could see the actual bay in front of me, so it felt real. I wanted to buy a copy, but at that time we barely had money for a trip let alone a map.

    Fast forward some decades, and I returned to that shop and bought a copy. My study and technical skills started when I bought the map, but my fascination started on that trip as a child.
