• Additional City Building Tools for FM7
  Submitted by John Bowden of http://www.ancient-awakenings.com.
  
  A great set of Fractal Mapper v7.0 custom tools to assist in city and town creation! Use with the town template for quick town creation. Be sure your map's unit of measurement is set to feet so that the objects created by these tools will show up at the right scale.
  The tools are:
  
  
  • Boarded Walkway: Creates a plank walkway with support columns.
  • Building Area Fill: Creates a random fill of buildings in an area, clearing any buildings overlapping roads
  • Fence: Creates a fence from a drawn line.
  • Grove: Creates a grove of random trees.
  • Line of Buildings: Creates a series of buildings from a spline curve.
  • Ridge: Allows a freehand cliff ridge to be drawn.
  • Road: Creates a 15' wide road from a spline.
  • Sidewalk: Allows the freehand drawing of a 5' sidewalk
  • Stone Wall: Creates a 10' thick crenelated wall.
  
  To install: Place this zip file into the directory where your Mapper7.exe is located. This is usually 'c:\program files\nbos\mapper7'. Unzip the archive with WinZip or simular program. When unzipping be sure the directory structures contained in the zip file are maintained (this is usually the default behavior).
  
  
• Inpiration Pad Pro v1.0
  Generate endless names, treasure, and encounters for your campaign! This includes both the Windows program, and the CGI versions of the program for Windows, Linux, and FreeBSD. If you don't have a Windows® based machine to run the installer on, here's an alternate zip file you can download.
  
  
• Ancient Map Symbols (for all versions of The Fractal Mapper, 56k)
  It doesn't get more authentic than this! A collection of mapping symbols cropped from actual (scanned) 14th + 15th century maps.
  
  To install (using v2.0 or later of the mapper), simply create a directory called 'ancient' under your 'nbos\mapper32\mapart' directory and unzip these bitmaps into it.
  
  (version 1.0 users should see the help file for info on how to add these symbols).
  
  NBOS thanks The National and University Library of Iceland for their excellent map collection from which the symbols in this collection are derived.
