Hello all, About a year ago (or more) I had started developing a free RPG mapper for my personal use that I made available to the public. I decided to continue development of it, but take it in another direction. Below is the link to the old version, and details about the future :)...

I had someone in Wal-Mart called me a few minutes before they stocked 3 of them. I got there and bought 2 (one for me and one for my best friend as a wedding gift.)

Just got back from seeing it with a friend, and it was pretty good. I haven't read the book, so I went into it without knowing anything but the keywords "Will Smith, Dog, NY ... Unfriendlies". I was pleasantly surprised to find almost no soundtrack (except Bob Marley), and great cinematography...

I think I'd take a page from Independence Day, Dawn of the Dead, and any other world-catastrophe film. If the rest of the world knows (and promptly freaks the heck out) ... Stock up on guns, ammunition, food and water. Bar my windows, doors, and other entrances/exits. If everyone was civil...

Although I suggest Firefox for browsing, if you HAD to upgrade from IE6 to IE7, it might be because IE6 (... and IE7) sometimes doesn't spit out proper formatting for page layouts, PNG images (with greater ranges of image transparency) aren't fully supported, and it's just old and worn out. I'm...

Black Chancery is pretty good. So is Bradley Gratis. Both can be found at "1001 fonts" and should be free to use for commercial and non-commercial purposes. P.S. I wouldn't use Papyrus for anything. It's the equivalent to using a Photoshop filter to generate art (very noticeable as amateur).

Also, I'd love to have some feedback from anyone who enjoys using other programs more! Let me know where the bottlenecks are, what's alright, and what stinks. Any features you think are missing?

I didn't know whether or not I had broadcast this, but I've reuploaded FreeCountry v1.0 with the outdoor tileset, as well as a dungeon tileset. For support, head over to my forums on www.togamario.com, and have fun! Download from HERE -Tyler P.S. I've had a few inquiries lately about my old...

Aye, but not all typical disk operations will have you leaving your machine to do it's business for hours at a time.

And whatever you do, don't let the power go out or the computer shut off while it's defragging. The files transfer into RAM then back onto the HDD, so if it's a system critical file that it's moving when the computer dies, you might be in for a headache.

You may not be able to compare WoW to DDO directly, but you can certainly tell the spots in DDO's design that don't make for good gaming as a general rule (that WoW got right, consequently, so I suppose it's just easiest to compare it like that) The level and achievment scaling is one thing that...

I'm happy to see some progress from these guys since they got a publisher :D It started off as three guys making a game, and the results (to me) are just amazing. I hope the game rocks as hard as the visuals do. http://www.projectoffset.com/astormiscoming/

This is a sketch I did for a particular scene in a book that read called Otherland by Tad Williams. I've still got a few things to clean it up, but it's about finished. I'd be happy to do illustrations for publications (though they'll have to be paid) if anyone's interested. Crits welcome.

It looks fun :D Reminds me of Stronghold (the pov angle and graphics) I'll give it a try if I can find it in a store.

I think that error is caused by a process trying to free pool memory that has already been disposed of by windows, and is most likely caused by a corrupt or faulty driver in one of your devices. I think that particular file belongs to a network related peripheral, so try removing and updating...

Updated with new tiles for cartography. Suggested method of laying out the maps is to fill with a cartography fill tile, then continuous paint or scatter (however you like) to put down base colors, then drop cartography tiles down on top of that ... all the while saving often, lol. Three notes...

Usually people will use an art program like Photoshop or GIMP to create the art at a proper resolution, then they get them printed by a custom playing card company. If you need any help with the technicality of the process, just let me know (it's part of what I do for a living). If it's...

Since the art is the easy part for me, I'll move it to the top of the to-do. I'll pick back up with the programming when I get done with a comprehensive art set. Although, I think the hex map grid might make it in sooner rather than later, since it's a popular request.

Released an update for FreeCountry with the new outdoors tiles (for free). I think they make a nice addition. You can use the same link from above to get it.

I'll take this opportunity to shamelessly plug the program that I made (and need to start working on again). Try FreeCountry out (check the help html that comes with it if you can't get it to run). Available for free, at togamario.com
