    Post [Region 1][Map 07][Location 01] Fentor Cross Area

    Getting a bigger picture on Fentor Cross.

    Fentor Cross is the crossing point between the two Fentor Hills (West and East). Around the town are three forts and as such it is well protected and combined, it has the largest garrison of all the places in the fenlands.

    The three forts are Westside, Eastside and Thrubview. The large town in the middle has a large spiked palisade containing all of the houses. It is the melting pot of the area full of merchants and travelers.

    This map is still 125mi across so its still too large to map at town level.

    More to come...

    I'm planning to get the first stab at the maps as just outlines. I will try to get the roads, the palisade walls and the outer bit done and provide a blank space in case anyone wants to start a city map. If I can do the outer and large bits then it should line up with the area map. I will try to do this for some of the larger places in the Thrubmorton region.

    Another level in - now at 30mi - probably the last terrain map for this area - and an update of the next one out to show position.

    Yeah I am having some great fun. This is one of the first times that GTS has been used to generate some deep terrain stuff. I'm trying out all sorts of stuff here.

    This is my Dragon Flight prog. Its a freebie but it does not come with the height map and color map for this. But I have uploaded the app and the height maps for it here. Its 10Mb so be easy on the download - my poor web server
    (I'll prob take it down in a week or so to stop killing it).

    Run DF, click past the help dialog. Now press 'P' for about 3 seconds. Press 'H' four times. Maximize it and press '6'. Enjoy
    (Tell me if it works alright. Its the new V1.05 released yesterday)
