looking great, but I got a question for you...Just how tall are the outer walls? Judging by the shadows they are pretty tall. Much taller than most of your inner defenses or even the main building in the keep. Also by the shadows the towers are the same height of the walls.
Otherwise, looking great as usual.

I will have to tone down the wall shadows a bit in next version I guess, thankslooking great
Otherwise, looking great as usual.

Your shadows seem a little blurry and for some reason where the towers are creates a dark circular shadow inside the wall shadow. Anyhow, the layout is absolutely incredible and with every city I see I am trying harder and harder to resist the urge to buy the program.
I might have too much blur on the wall shadows as well
Shadows are not my area of expertise. The overlapping shadows (tower and wall) is a CC3/CD3 problem I think.

I was thinking the same thing about the overlapping shadows being a CC3 thing. Since I don't have it I couldn't investigate it and I didn't want to say anything and sound stupid, since you know much more about it. There's a thread on the forums from the writers of the software about what to include fix, etc. in the next version...maybe drop a memo in there about how the shadows overlap and hence multiply. I'll see if I can dig it up...got it, it's the second sticky in the Software subforum.

Well if you can find the thread please let me know. Or if someone with CC3 knows a workaround...

Ah, you mean on THIS forum. Ok, but first I will probably drop a note on the Profantasy forums and explain my problem. Before I look like the idiot and I am doing something wrong with the shadows myself

Next WIP. Gave the map another huge push today and will probably be able to finish it this week. I am still messing around with the shadows. Oh, and I am messing around with labeling. Never labeled a map and what I have done now is really crude, I know
Just getting a feel for how it would look.
