Build318..jpg
This is a sample of the world map we've been discussing on the general thread.
This is Build 318 of the western hemisphere from the Jörðgarð (TM) campaign setting that's in development. The map was made entirely with Fractal Mapper 8. Much of this hemisphere is based upon mythology, which includes the well Hvergelmir from the Elder Edda, from which the world's 11 great rivers flow. Eleven rivers flowing from a single spring is a clear violation of River Police rules, but it's an intentional violation. The Jörð, as this world will be called, has its own rules and logic, not necessarily those of the real world.
This map is at advanced draft stage. A number of things have yet to be done. The final version will support the FM8 multi-resolution system, which means basically that although it's a raster map it will stay sharp and unpixilated with close zoom-ins. Text sizes (no text has been added yet) also will vary with zoom level. Finally, many of the place names will be links that will open more detailed regional maps, and the regional maps will have links that open city, town and village maps.
