Other World Mapper Forum

That's a beautiful map. I love the 3D effect you made with World Machine.

Crossposted from The Piazza : I meant to post this a while ago, when I first saw it. Teramis, of the World Building Academy (and also a member of The Piazza) posted a YouTube video tutorial called: Build Your World With Continental Drift . You can also read a bit more on her World Building Academy ...

Alejandro & Mac, Well then .. please let me formally invite Three Mind's Software and OWM to MoatCon 4 - (http://www.moatcon.com). This is our first open to the entire public convention and we are holding it in Youngsville, NC. Just down the road from y'all, a bit of a drive but we would love to ha...

I surfed over to Kickstarter yesterday and a notification of your survey popped up. When I filled out the survey, Kickstarter asked me to log back in, so it looks like they might have booted me out during the survey. Did you get my reply? I asked for: David "Big Mac" Shepheard as my credit*. * Big M...

These broken maps (with "Pac Man poles") are the actual reason I've been wanting to learn cartography for several years. I might be able to get a close approximation with Winkel Tripel projection you have already made, but I don't think it would be close enough to make me happy that they are "fixed...

The dev log will go up before the end of the month and the Alpha 3 release will be available to both Alpha and Beta backers as we said in the previous update. Ohh. Alpha version to Beta backers sounds good. That means you can get more people to look for bugs. More bug testers means faster identific...

Thanks Alejandro. GenCon does seem pretty busy and expensive. Maybe there is a gaming convention closer to the Three Minds office, that you can do a public demonstration at, to record for YouTube (after you have it launched and have the time for this stuff). What would be awesome, would be to invite...

I'm considering your comment on the addition of other mapping projections. I don't know enough about the different projections to know what ones might be useful. I do know that there are lots of different projections and that each type would take time for you to include more than the six you have a...

I've created a topic called: [cartography] OWM team solves "the polar problem" at The Squishy Bits forum at The Piazza, that you might want to keep an eye on.

EDIT: That Piazza topic is now the featured story on the Facebook page for The Piazza and the Facebook group for The Piazza.

Yay! That is exactly how I wanted it. Thanks Alejandro! :D What did you think of the last update? :) I just saw it! It is amazing. 8-) 8-) 8-) From what I can see in August Update and Dev Log I think you have actually solved the polar problem. 8-) I'm considering your comment on the addition of oth...
