Maps! And backgrounds!
Maps! And backgrounds!
I packaged up six combat maps, a couple of maps for navigating regions, and some backgrounds to like dollhouses during play.
It was a lot of work. For each map, there's a PNG file with the hex grid, a PNG without the hex grid, the original SVG for editing, and a PDF containing the map broken into pages that can be printed and then lined up and taped to make the full map with a 0.75" hex grid.
Would anyone check these out and tell me if they look good?
Also: is there a better way to share these? I feel like people might be wary of downloading a 37 MB zip file from a stranger on Lemmy. Would people prefer that the files be stored on a cloud site like Dropbox instead of in a Zip file?
I've found mega.nz to be very easy to set up a storage drive account with. Alternatively (and we'd want to check with poVoq on storage space, but I think we have the option to set up a wiki for this community, which could also (eventually) become that organized resource for players and GMs.
Those both sound like good options.
@poVoq@slrpnk.net : would it be possible to set up a wiki for sharing maps and such for our game? Currently, they take up around 40 MB.
https://wiki.slrpnk.net/fullyautomatedrpg:start
You can edit that page and the namespace as a mod of this community (however due to an incomplete authentication script you currently need to set a display name and an email address in your Lemmy profile, otherwise the login on the wiki will fail).
Edit: I need to check the size of the files allowed for upload. Looks like they are currently limited to 2mb which is a bit low.
