Roleplaying
Today we will be making more preset tables and shelves for the stores, this time for the magic store. I found hundreds of potion bottles by Supercaptian and several other artists at the Dundjinni forum, so I thought I won’t need to make Portions, just yet.

So, I’m working on the adventure The heart of gods – part three, and I need some interesting marshes or swamps. (Yes, you have it on you map players, Great Marshes or did you miss that?)
Today, we’re gonna make some final touches to our Eastport map, then I will make something I’ve been thinking of for a long time, which I really saw the need for during this map, more bushes. I will make some using Bryce.
But first, I said I needed some burrows to the south part of Eastport, and I did find a few, made by the very talented Greytale, at Greytake’s nook.
So, now we’re in the state of finishing up the map, adding bushes and trees and fixing things that wasn’t perfect at first. So, let’s get to work shall we?
Back to the nitty gritty of mapmaking today. You always have to divide the time between making objects and making maps, if you are doing object based mapmaking. Some, who can draw and who have artistic talent, can just draw the map using pencil or tablet, but for us who cannot draw, placing objects is what we will have to stick to.
Today, we’re not gonna use Dundjinni so much, but create a ruined temple for the ruins of Eastport. I’ve decided this is a place where a trapdoor should, leading down to something creepy.
Today we won’t be doing so much in Dundjinni, but more in Cheetah3D as we’re gonna make a ruined well for the ruins of Eastport.
This feels good, making a real map again, not only making small items to use for maps. Today, we’re gonna start to layout some stuff for the ruins of Eastport. We start off where we lest yesterday, and open up the map in Dundjinni.
Welcome back to the making of the Eastport map. Today, as I said yesterday, we’re gonna work with what is left of the jetty. This will be interesting indeed.
OK, enough market for a while, now we’re gonna make a map in Dundjinni, a new map, the 4th in my Westport series of maps, that will be named Eastport, or The ruins of Eastport. It will be located across the lake Falangor, and was long a go a Dwarven outpost, now abandoned longer than any mortal can remember.
This is my personal method of doing maps, the way I work in Dundjinni. There are about as many ways as there are Dundjinni mappers out there, so I am not saying this is the right way, just one way or my way.
