If you’ve missed any of the live mapping sessions we do on YouTube most weeks, showcasing a certain style or set of tools in CC3+, you’ll find them archived on YouTube. Here are the most recent ones:
We’re back on schedule with the March monthly symbols! We are climbing up towards the light this month, instead of descending of the dark of the dungeon. Height differences are always hard to depict on a top down map, so Mike has produced symbols that help with that. The “Outdoor Heights” symbol pack contains cliff edges, slopes, and a variety of helpful tools to navigate them, from rope ladders to climbing poles.
Note that the example maps included with this free content make use of Symbol Set 4 to showcase the symbols in proper surroundings. If you don’t have SS4 installed, you won’t see these correctly, but you can still use the symbols on other maps. Symbol Set 4 – Dungeons of Schley is available for purchase here.
To download the free content go to your registration page and on the Downloads tab, click the download button for Campaign Cartographer 3 Plus. Mike’s new symbols are listed there. All the content of year is included in the one download.
You can always check the available monthly content on our dedicated page.
Sorry for a little delay in getting the February symbols to you, but Mike was exceptionally busy. Hopefully we are now back on track and will get the March set to you this month. The February set brings you a colorful collection of mushrooms, fungi and lichen tp decorate the fungal caves of your mega dungeon. The monsters and other inhabitants do need something to eat after all!
