Generic map pack - Update: Swamp wins! Also Geomorphs?
Added 2023-07-24 18:12:14 +0000 UTCUPDATE: I think it's fine to call the poll results now, thank you everyone who voted and left suggestions!
Seems swamps have won out which is surprising, I was sure that maybe forest would be the most requested so I'm glad I did a poll first. Feywild in second which is less surprising, who doesn't love feywild :D
I'm thinking of making the pack a geomorph pack, rather than separate maps that don't intentionally line up. I won't make a poll for this, I'd like to try geomorphs since I have a project in mind later down the line that this could be good practice for.
Anyway, swamps it is, I'll try and get a pack out asap :)

Hello!
Making a quick poll for the next release which I want to be a pack of smaller generic maps. This month has been rough, all I'll say is the sooner they find a cure/prevention for alzheimer's/dementia the better.
I know some of you have been unhappy that this month's releases has only been variants for the eldritch light house map, sorry about that.
I was gonna do a forest pack but figured I'd ask in case y'all need something else more. Ultimately I'd like to do all themes and more but even smaller generic maps take time so most needed first :)
If you have any requests (Not towns and buildings, I don't do those currently, sorry!) let me know in the comments.

2023-07-29 23:12:38 +0000 UTCMountain path/rocky terrain would be relatively easy to do I feel (though every time I think that it turns out way harder XD) so I'll put that on the back list too. And thank you for the kind words, life certainly can be rotten sometimes unfortunately. It is what it is really.

2023-07-25 20:12:14 +0000 UTCYeah I think swamps are under represented in general (as are a lot of biomes I guess). Looks like swamp is the winner anyhow with feywild coming up second.

2023-07-25 20:08:12 +0000 UTCThank you! I feel like underdark would be the most interesting (for me) to tackle :)

2023-07-25 20:06:48 +0000 UTCDefinitely, I love sci fi but hard surface sci fi takes sooo much time and effort. Probably isn't surprising that if I was a sci fi map maker I'd focus on organic worlds/environments rather than ships and urban stuff lol

2023-07-25 20:04:51 +0000 UTCHonestly, I think your bold colors would be most interesting applied to a swamp. And your bold colors always evoke at least a hint of fae anyhow.

2023-07-25 14:52:45 +0000 UTCI voted for Feywild, but as someone currently running Witchlight, I'd also like to throw my hat in the ring for any kind of mountain path / rocky terrain, which is surprisingly hard to come by. (Also, please take all the time you need on putting stuff out! Life can be rotten, please make sure you're taking care of yourself!!)

2023-07-24 22:02:19 +0000 UTCI've heard scifi is higher effort per piece than fantasy because mechanical things take more detailing and planning than organic stuff.

2023-07-24 21:32:32 +0000 UTCOh interesting, definitely putting that on the list, don't think I've ever seen a savannah map.

2023-07-24 20:55:55 +0000 UTCLooks like its tied for second place :D Swamps is currently winning out but I can pretty much guarantee a feywild pack soon since I already do so many feywild maps in general.

2023-07-24 20:55:21 +0000 UTCNot much, some spelljammerish maps, I want to so more of them however I find them strangely difficult to do lol

2023-07-24 20:54:16 +0000 UTCI'm not super familiar with that theme, so if there is any good resources you think would help I'll put it on the list :)

2023-07-24 20:52:33 +0000 UTCDefinitely want to do more jungle stuff at some point so I'll put it on the list. Seems swamp is winning out atm which is cool cause I'm kind of leaning towards swamp myself, rarely do or see swamp stuff.

2023-07-24 20:50:22 +0000 UTCA savannah map would be cool, because it does not exist for the majority of creators ^^

2023-07-24 20:09:14 +0000 UTCI agree with that!

2023-07-24 18:45:37 +0000 UTCEver done anything spelljammer/scifi?

2023-07-24 18:44:19 +0000 UTCI would love more Underdark urban maps!

2023-07-24 18:30:40 +0000 UTCAssuming Jungle isn't an option, Swamps are pretty underrepresented among a lot of mapmakers.
