  • Cartographer's Annual - all the issues linked in one place

    I can't make all potential useful topics sticky, the front page would just be a long list of stickies, which is not very user-friendly. Instead, it is listed in the resources category, which you can find directly from the left-hand navigation menu (Helpful resources and FAQ link)

  • Dungeon Wall question

    Lines can unfortunately just have a single path, they can't branch, so an additional section like that cannot be part of the line. What I would probably to in this case is to draw the outer line as a single line, and then have that "inner" vertical line as a separate line, and make sure to arrange the lines so it is below, not above the outer lines. This will give you much better corners.

    Otherwise, it would have to be made as a polygon, which is doable, but a bit more work.

  • Wall Overlap Causes Wall to Disappear in SS3

    Disappearing parts during overlap happens because the same line overlaps itself. There are several ways to avoid or fix this:

    • Don't start drawing at a corner. If the start/end is in the middle of a length of wall you don't need any overlaps
    • Build the walls using more than one path. If they are not the same entity, you don't get the disappearing problem.
    • Use tools like Combine Path or Path to Poly to combine the lines to make the corners actual corners and not just "meeting points of the ends"

  • Export to CC3+

    Pick the_CC3+ Mike Schley export setting when exporting from CC3+. Or, if you have defined your own export setting, make sure to use the @Templates\CC3+ Mike Schley.FCW template file in the first page of the export settings.

  • Jon Roberts Revisited Bug

    You may have downloaded the fixed version Ralf just put up to your Mac. The new fixed version does contain the files, and should install them properly.


    For those interested in the technical details, the reason for the lines was that when the symfill files didn't exist, CC3+ failed to load them, so it used the default settings. Which happens to be a very simple vertical line symbol.
