Free Symbols Sets

[SeerBlue]

Awesome Sigurd, I have been following dead links from various sites trying to find this pdf with these very symbols for ages, the USGS does not seem to think updating/forwarding dead pages is worth the effort I guess.
Thanks ALOT, SeerBlue

Today I made a varicolor symbol catalog for CC3 overland maps based on the Jiraijirai TrueType font found on this really cool page of fonts.

That page has so many cool fonts that would look nice on maps, I feel more CC3 symbol catalogs are soon to follow...

I believe somebody here at the Guild pointed that Web site and the Jiraijirai font in particular out, but for the life of me I can't find the original post.

What a great find! These are really beautiful and incredibly useful for mapping. Thanks jaerdaph! I can't wait to use these!

Oh...help! When I click on the TTF file to download it it actually opens the file...could some kind sir please guide this simpleton as to how to download the TTF files?

[Redrobes]

Yes fabulous find - I'll rep in a mo !

If I right click on the ttf file it asks me to download so I can save to some temp area. Then drag that file to the C:\windows\fonts dir and it should install it for you.

Cheers. I found a zip file at the top which had them all in and just unzipped to my font directory. Sadly cannot rep Jaedaph as I haven't repped enough after the last time!

Ah right - for some reason its the process of dragging the file in that triggers the install of it. Don't know why but thats the way I have found it. Also although the fonts directory looks like a directory its one of a set of windows specials. Its definitely more than just a directory - its some kind of data base thing with a folder interface to it. Which I think sucks btw - I would prefer to have some unreadable garbage in there with a proper app interface to it and know it wasn't a folder of ttf files. If anyone has some good info on what its actually doing then id like to know.

It's the thought that counts

What now who now? I haven't a clue what you're referring to...

Here's two more varicolor symbol sets for CC3 overland maps. Utsuronaya is a collection of hollow arrows, and yajiri is a collection of solid arrows.

Does anyone know of any symbols that would be good to use in an arctic wasteland kind of setting (white mountains, icebergs, etc)? TIA!

Does any one knows where is the vegetation button in cc3?
Thanks
