Vistani Camp 2.0

The second, more substantial part of my divided Vistani Camp map. You can find Kasimir's Hovel here. It's unlikely your players will need a battlemap that features the insides of Luvash's wagon or the treasure wagon, but you never know. I didn't include horses in any of these maps as I know a lot of DMs prefer to be able to control tokens for animals (and I have been asked to leave animals out on several occasions), but if you'd prefer variants with animals in fixed positions, let me know and I can keep that in mind going forward!

My maps are made with assets from Forgotten Adventures, Tom Cartos, and AoA, and they come with grid/gridless, day/night, PNG/UVTT, and full-size/70 pixels per square size variants.

No thank you - I'll just upload the files I have when I get a chance.

No worries. Would you like me to upload the versions I make, that match the other 200ppi jpg maps? Assuming you find them acceptable, you can just post those ones, then everything will match.

I'm probably just going to upload the files I have for any of the locations that are missing once I get a chance - the Patreon is effectively an archive at this point, and with how limited my time is at the moment, I'm not planning on doing anything more involved than that.

I had the older 256ppi png files, and they're posted above.. since those are higher quality than jpg, I used those in GIMP to make my own 200ppi versions of this one. I used Scale Image to scale it down to 6000 px, set it to 200ppi, and used NoHalo for the interpolation. It uses the new GEGL interpolation, which is even better than the Lanczos3 interpolation method. https://graphicdesign.stackexchange.com/questions/138059/what-algorithm-do-the-nohalo-and-lohalo-resize-methods-use-in-gimp FYI, NoHalo is perfect for scaling images down. the pixel precision is near perfect (I've never seen a bad pixel). I use LoHalo for making images bigger (never more then 2x), then use Shapren (Unsharp Mask) with a pixel radius of 0.503 pixels, and feather the amount of sharpening to below where I'll start seeing dark line artifacts. The methods aren't perfect, but they can produce perfectly acceptable (near perfect) results I might not get that lucky on the others, but that got me past this one. :) Would you prefer I hit you up on Patreon chat if I find more stuff, or is it easier if I post them in line here?

I only have the WebP files at hand for the moment - I haven't touched these maps in a very long time, so it may take a while to find the rest of the files. You can still use the WebP file as a base, though, and I don't think this map ever had overhead tiles. As for being 256ppi, I imagine that will be the case for any of the maps that I didn't get around to updating, as I had started out with 256 and eventually swapped to 200.

FYI, I'm not sure if this map should have the 200ppi images, but since I'm collecting those ones right now, I note that both the images in the post and the linked WebP files are at the older 256ppi.

James Long

I use the jpg files for the maps, then overlay with the PNG or WebP files

James Long

Ah! I recently took down the Google Drive, but didn't realize I hadn't actually uploaded some of the older files to Patreon. Thanks for letting me know! I'll try to upload the WebP files I have for any that weren't hosted on Patreon, and at some point I'll try to find the original files!

Hey boss, the Patreon links for this one are missing. :)

James Long

Thank you, Andy! There's actually a path tool among the Forgotten Adventures assets for wagon tracks, but I prefer how the light shadow path looks when used to that end. Unfortunately, you can only do one line at a time, and I'm not great at symmetry, so it takes a while to get it to a point where it looks alright!

Vincent - Aonbarr Cartography

Really love this! The wagon wheel marks on the road is fantastic

Andy D'Amato

It‘s beautiful again - those reworked maps really shine and are so neatly done! Thanks for your work
