Hey all! I had a few requests on the last map for an isometric version to get some cliffside combat happening, so here it is! I hope it helps for that next cliffside battle!
Also, if this kind of view is something that you all like please don't hesitate to let me know!
The files can be found in the COPPER tier sub-folder for the 0059 Cliffside Convoy map folder.
Hey All! Just wanted to let you know that I've put together a bit of a website for MapGuffin which includes a map gallery to help browse what maps are available. There is a bit more development to come on this to make it easier to find the maps in the google drive from this (ID number and name reference) as well as a few other plans for the site, but I wanted to get it into your hands ASAP!

Stoked to let you know that I've now finished implementing the switch across monthly, now all that's left to do is for you to migrate across to the new tier structure.
As a thank you I've got some special pricing set up with an extra dollar off. Jumping on these will lock in that discount for you moving forward! If you've been thinking about moving onto silver to check out the animated map, the variants, and now the variant perspectives, there's neve...
2021-07-15 08:20:58 +0000 UTC View PostHi All, just a quick one, and sorry if it's getting spammy I'm just keen to keep everyone aware and to be as transparent as possible. I'll be implementing the switch across to monthly as of tomorrow (Australian Thursday).
I haven't done this switch before and can't do a dry run, so if it triggers a the monthly payment when I do so please know that this is why I've held back from putting maps out this month under the old system, to ensure there is no double pay!
If there is a...
2021-07-14 13:33:51 +0000 UTC View PostThanks everyone for the feedback on the poll, I really appreciate it! The general consensus seems to be to make the switch to monthly. (66 participants with, 67% change to monthly, 24% don't mind one way or the other, 9% keep as per creation)
There have been some questions around the pricing structure, as I proposing that there AT LEAST 3 map packs per month, along with ideally a 4th map pack and/or a few extra bits of content that don't fit into the nice nea...

Hi all, it was pointed out to me that the last map I put out could work as the Brovia Church from Curse of Strahd if it also had a basement so I though why not put that out for free and make a storm version also fully for free too! Because, well, I just really enjoy putting out more content.
I hope this tides people over whilst I keep the pole open for another couple of days. It's looking like the consensus at this point is to switch it up to a Monthly system, but it's not to...
2021-07-07 13:15:58 +0000 UTC View PostHey all! So I'm at a bit of a crossroads with the patreon that I wanted to get everyone's thoughts on, that is whether to stay as per creation or switch to monthly.
Now here's been a lot of discussion around the pros and cons of creation vs monthly amongst the TTRPG creators who also use patreon and strong arguments are made for both side. My conclusion from these discussions is that I want to take it to you all for your thoughts on what you prefer?
I originally chose to go per cr...

Hey all, continuing what seems to be a month of adjustments. Many of you have asked about perspective images of the alternate Silver versions of the map. My original plan was to get hold of some a new GPU to allow me some extra rendering capacity, but that is easier said then done currently. So until I manage to upgrade my computer I'll try changing the number of base perspectives to around 6 to give me some room to do a few silver level perspectives of one or more of the alternates as well. ...

Hey all, in my continuing quest to make things easier and more accessible for you all I have changed how I upload items. You may notice that there are no zip files in these download links, this is to allow you to hit download all and avoid having zips within zips, in theory you can just download it all (or any individual folders) and with one unzip have everything ready to go! Let me know if there are any dramas with this, or if it actually helps!
Hey all, I'm going to start putting links to the Silver and Copper folders on these posts to make it easier for everyone on those tiers to access the files. Additionally as suggested by Midgardia there will be some links to the Silver and Copper in the pinned post, these links shouldn't change in the foreseeable future, so feel free to bookmark them for further ease of access!
Be sure to grab the files from both of the COPPER and SILVER links below for the full release!

Water drips from the dank ceiling into the cloudy water below, each disturbance raising the troubling aroma contained within into the air. Thankfully you are not the first to visit these tunnels, hastily constructed bridges, now somehow even more rickety with wood rot, providing unsullied passage across the flowing muck and whatever strange creatures can survive beneath .

Hi all, this last map pack seemed to attract some good discussion around it with some suggestions of a Shadowfell version, it's also been a while since I got to put out some free content, so here it is!

Bubbling and flowing ever onwards the river of lava cuts through the tropical jungle, plumes of sulfuric smoke rising into the canopy threatening to choke any avian that gets too close out of the sky. Few crossing points survive long here, with wood and stone alike being swiftly collapsed into the amber tide.
Carved, grown, or transmogrified, many have debated the origins of t...

The ground sharply drops away in front of you into the mist beyond, snow swirling downwards in flurries that disappear into the abyss. For as far as you can see to either side the canyon winds onwards.
This bridge may well be the only crossing point for miles, which makes it the perfect place for an ambush… or the worse place to be ambushed…
Luckily we’re all going to be able ...

In the midst of this peaceful forest a path rises up this wooded hill. At its peak an ancient stone circle surrounding this gnarled trunk of the mighty oak. Civilisations have risen and fallen under its watchful gaze.

A few of the other creators and myself have been chatting and thought that setting up a group discord may be an interesting and hopefully beneficial way to provide this option to those who want to use it in a very communal collaborative way.
In this communal discord you should all have access to the MapGuffin channel, as well as some of the general channels for chatting with some of the other Patreons and th...

With the smell of corn on the fresh morning air the road winds onwards, crows eagerly cawing in the distance looking forward to the bounty that will come with the harvest. This road has proven safe thusfar through the forest and relative safety of the grasslands, but as you move back towards civilisation and the horrors of people once more you must stay alert.
Whilst the rows of crops muffle the sounds any attempts to move through them without great care will easily give away...

The fire crackles either side of the doorway as you enter the chamber, illuminating the bridge before you. Molten metals flow along the forgeway before being cast in excess into the magma river below. A testament to the opulence of these dwellers in the deep.
Cast in bronze, brass and gold the pathway forwards is lined with the runic glyphs of the Silverbeard clan that claims ownership over this hold, but one of many in the World Spine mountain range.

Flitting through the gaps in the tree line, bursts of red catch your eye as you walk along the fence-line of the farmer's field. As you approach a turn off in the road a grand barn looms above, overlooking the field below, its structure speaking to the wealth of whomever built it.
The hay inside looks warm and comforting, and whilst wear is starting to show over it's exterior surely the owner couldn't fault weary travellers trying to find a safe spot to rest for the night?
