Hi All,

Just finished a large, detailed dungeon map for a client. I've uploaded the GM version to my gallery here: https://forum.profantasy.com/profile/gallery/6719/jmabbott/47

Primarily done in SS4, with some symbols from DD3, a Cosmographer annual - the one with the planet symbols in it and the CSUAC, along with some custom drawing + a piece of art work from the client inserted as a symbol. I made the trap numbering symbols (the adventure uses random generation for a lot of them) and saved them as a catalogue! That was...interesting. I even managed to set them up with a text entry field (for the numeric value) - very advanced for me...

I also provided the client with a player version which made extensive use of the colour key effect on the Wall Mask Sheet/GM Only layer. What I did there was place the Wall Mask sheet below the walls sheet and then drew the colour key polygons where required. I also submitted an unumbered GM version (room numbers on a separate sheet).

All in all, an interesting project with a few creative challenges...

Client was a pleasure to work with and payed promptly, actually before receiving the final copies...

Hopefully, they're happy and give me more work.

I think @Ralf may know a thing or two about drawing tools with tree fills...but still, there appear to be quite a few individual symbols as well...

I really need to go deeper into this stuff. It's application and result is very interesting but I find technical things such as this very difficult to master; for some reason when I'm reading technical instructions - including some bits of RPG rulebooks, you know , the mechanical bits, I've read the Sanity Rules for Call of Cthulhu several times and still don't fully get it - my brain decides to switch off and I read the text, understanding the words written with virtually no comprehension.

Hi,

Here is a photo of a map I drew in an A5 notepad while waiting my turns during a Pathfinder game followed by a WIP of the CC3+ version. I've made some changes to the CC3+ version.

Well that’s interesting, you would think the scenario writers would check that sort of thing.
