Hi Everyone :)

In this week's Live Mapping session on Thursday 6 May, Ralf will be demonstrating the use of the new Darklands Annual, published as this month's issue of the 2021 Cartographer's Annual

Come along and join in the fun :)

If you hide or delete the COASTLINE sheet that will get rid of the blue line, which is a separate entity to the land drawn on the LAND sheet.

I haven't got a default CC3 style map lying around I can just open, and I'm a little tangled up with 3 instances of CC3 open at the same time right now, but if you click on the LAND sheet of the default style you should be able to copy the sheet effects on that sheet, copy them, and paste them into the Mike Schley map.

As for the rivers - I believe they are drawn the same way in both styles, though the colour might be different. You can find out what colour the rivers are in the default style using List from the Info menu, and then change the properties of the rivers in your MS map using the Change Properties button on the left toolbar.

Took all day, but I've got a single bundle of eelgrass (sometimes known as seagrass). What do you think?

Thanks :)

You will have to add the relevant sheet effects to make the lighting work properly. These are beautifully explained in Ralf's Lighted Dungeons Live Mapping session at about 17 minutes into the video (before that is more about how to draw the dungeon itself)

Well, I'm still on course for a basic style here. It's been a lot of work for not much apparent change, but none of the fills will cause transparency acne in any of the others. I've also done quite a lot of work on the bare rocks. I'll be using them as the base for other more elaborate rocks with weed and barnacles, etc.
