  • How do i know what i currently have installed?

    Go to CC3+, find the drop-down menu "Tools" in the bar along the top of the window, and then go to the "Add Ons" label in that drop-down. That will show you everything you have currently installed, and you can click on any one of those names to access each individual item's description in an HTML file.

  • CA style development - "Darklands City" (issues for September and December 2021)

    @Loopysue asked: Does this look like how you would imagine a chimney fire from directly above?

    Possibly, though it's quite common to have a heavy plume of smoke above the fire, so you can't see the central flame so well. Chimney fires have a tendency to produce copious amounts of dark smoke, sometimes with embedded sparks, which tends to be more what you'd see, particularly given the chimney itself is relatively tiny compared with the smoke plume. As house chimneys often kink inside, you might not be able to see the blazing soot unless it's near the top of the chimney anyway. From memory, the flames tend to be redder as well, though this is from the perspective of viewing from the side, rather than top-down.

  • Seeking map of Burgundy

    Hi @Johann !

    My recommendation would be to try to see the Barrington Atlas of the Greek and Roman World (Wikipedia link). This has details on the landscape and landforms in contour maps and text descriptions, with lists of identified places known to have existed in specific periods (including late antiquity, which is where c.450 CE would fall in their categorisation). Where this can be established, changes in landforms (coasts and river courses primarily) have been allowed-for, though I don't think the area of Germania Superior that you're interested in features in that too much, as little work has been done on things like the ancient river courses in this area, unfortunately.

    If you have fence lines, I've learnt they can be placed below a hedgerow to look enough like a gate to work as such in the Fantasy Town style. As long as there's an end-piece for the hedge, that should work OK. It also works with walls too, of course.

  • Are there steampunk resources for CC3+?

    I think the problem we're having in helping you is we don't really know what YOU think constitutes Steampunk, or what it is you're trying to map, so just saying you want Steampunk assets without saying what they're for, is a little like asking us to give you a piece of string to accomplish a task you can't define. Now you're saying you found some Steampunk packs elsewhere but they weren't what you wanted (which rather goes against your prior comment that anything under the Steampunk label would do). Maybe if you could say what assets you DO want and what it is you want to map, instead of what you don't, we might be able to help more. It's clear you know what you're looking for, but we don't.

    Certainly there is no ProFantasy pack that carries the specific "Steampunk" label, if that's all you were hoping for, although that doesn't mean there aren't assets you could use in that genre in many other packs, as we've tried to indicate in the notes above.
