simonh Posted May 20, 2021 Share Posted May 20, 2021 (edited) I came across an online mapping application called Inkarnate recently and it's really nice. It's only available on a subscription basis, but even the free tier is quite capable. Here's a map I worked up for a game I'm prepping for just using the free assets. https://inkarnate.com/ Edited May 20, 2021 by simonh 3 2 Quote Check out the Runequest Glorantha Wiki for RQ links and resources.

Bill the barbarian Posted May 20, 2021 Share Posted May 20, 2021 That looks sweet. Thanks simonh! Quote ... remember, with a TARDIS, one is never late for breakfast! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
simonh Posted May 20, 2021 Author Share Posted May 20, 2021 I figured if even a talentless clod like me can produce something useable it might be handy for others too. Actually, on the subject of online mapping tools Dungeon Scrawl is quite nice, and free. https://probabletrain.itch.io/dungeon-scrawl Quote Check out the Runequest Glorantha Wiki for RQ links and resources.

There may be hope for all us talentless clods, then.😃 The map looks really good. 1 Quote Simon Phipp - Caldmore Chameleon - Wallowing in my elitism since 1982. Many Systems, One Family.

simonh Posted May 20, 2021 Author Share Posted May 20, 2021 (edited) It works by 'painting' on land and textures. All those knobbly coast lines are auto-generated. You lose fine detailed control, but gain hugely in speed and convenience. The mountains, hills and trees are symbols added manually - BUT - it has multiple variants of each icon, and cycles through the icons of that type randomly each time you click to place one (that's optional). So each time you get a slightly different tree, or a slightly different mountain. Very clever. Edited May 20, 2021 by simonh 3 Quote Check out the Runequest Glorantha Wiki for RQ links and resources.

Sir_Godspeed Posted June 30, 2021 Share Posted June 30, 2021 I've heard a good deal about it, or seen it around, but I was always put off by the subscription. I just don't have a lot of disposable income lately. Since there is a free tier, I might give it a whirl for fun, though. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
