    I really like the farm lands and acreage and whatnot. Did you do that in CC3? I've been trying to do that sort of thing in PS but nowhere near succeeding. I've never been a huge fan of being able to see textures on buildings.. kinda like when you google map something, you can see the roof and anything unusual on it, but you dont see the tilework or the shingles. But, thats totally, MY thing. Regardless, I can't wait to see how this turns out (as hopefully get some pointers on the farmland plots and possibly trees).

    Thanks for the feedback. I'm using gimp to make this map. As far as the farmland goes it a texture I modified from the Genetica Viewer. I've attached it for you if your interested.. Crop Fields.png

    Wip Oh COME ON NOW....(or enough already..)

    Yep Phase VII The longer I looked at this map the less I liked the "too" randomness of it. So because I can't get any of the city patterns that I like to work the way I would like them to..I am going to do it all by hand..(or by mouse to be precise) I drew up the "Ward" boundary's so I could properly place the "landmark" buildings. This will be a long and tedious process (and one that I will not share nightly with you to save you from falling asleep at your computer from boredom.. but I think In the end I will finally get the results I have been after...

    You may be onto something with this one. The lil markets seem to fit very well.

    After having read the thread about using other peoples stuff without permission or credit I find myself guilty of it as well. Here is a list of all the items and or locations in this map that were NOT created by me

    1. Roof texture created by Mearrin69
    2. The original building pattern was taken and modified by me from a texture in the Genetica Viewer. (I don't know who originally created it)
    3. The last building pattern was also modified by me but not created by me. If you recognize it let me know and I will credit you and Thanks!!
    4. Map descriptions: The words "Riverhewn" "Merrian" "Northrun" "Southrun" "Lordsrun" "Fishome" " and "Woodsgate" are all original The following words were taken from the "World Of Greyhawk" Campaign Setting "Fler River" "Lake Quag" and "Dramidj Ocean".

    Whew..There very well may be more stuff that I haven't credited if you see something that's yours let me know so I can credit you...

    Wip Done (at least enough for me)

    Whew... I'm going to call this one done. I went yet another way with this at the last minute. It's not perfect but I like it. It "feels" right .
