Ideally I hope to work out how to export at the original bit depth of the DEM, modify in that bit depth, and then make the finished DEM at that same bit depth, but you can still get good results with my current workflow. This leaves you with what is essentially a bunch of 8bit rasters, which might be a lot less than your original DEM, but you are going to be hacking at them like Frankenstein later on anyways. tif files at that scale through the layout tool in ArcGIS Pro (400 dpi). I am sure there is a better way to do this, but currently I export snippets of each tile as. For my example map, I am aiming for a area about the size of western Europe, so I will be working at 10,000,000km (rounded to make things easier). The same features can look very different at different scales and you want your data to look consistent, just like real terrain would. You then want to decide what scale your eventual fantasy map will be at. As I have said before, you can make any area unrecognizable, but I also enjoy going for more obscure terrain (if you are from the US or Europe of course) to begin with just to make it as fresh and exciting as possible.

I got a tile from South America around southeastern Brazil, western India, and part of the Sakha Republic in Siberia (Russia). Does not have to be of a particular place, the goal is to get a lot of stuff to work with and pare it down later. I grabbed some elevation data from GMTED (you can get it here). So again thanks for you work, and if anytime you decide to build tools for dwarf mannors of cities, or tools for bigger cities inside here that would be great (maybe it does allow it and I wasn't smart enough to use it correctly).Īnd I apologyse my for bad english, not my native language.The first step is downloading this data. I used Harnmannor RPG book for the starting mannors and now they have reach the moment when the city is being built next the the mannor, but the mannor will keep growing to provide food for the cities (also couldn't find any nice tool for the cities). With this tool I was able to create the two initial mannors easily and give them particular looks (the dwarven one sadly I couldn't find a single tool for underground mountain creation). The are building the three settlements just a few miles from each other, one on the coast with large fields, one on the coast but inside the woods, and the other a dwarf went to the mountains pretty close. They are creating this settlements in the Alterac/Hillsbrad area. I'm DMing a WoW campaign and the party has reach level 13 and decided they want to establish and create a big city, after many arguments the party split to create actually 3 cities (they didn't reach an agreement in many important decisions). As a few bellow I created an account to say thanks, thanks for you hardwork, thanks for sharing, thanks for making my RPG adventures better.
