New Art Pack! Torstan's Island Maps!

Post by dorpond »

Torstan strikes again! Woohoo!

Let us all put our hands together for Torstan – he has offered yet another pack of maps for you all to behold!

As many of you know, Torstan draws all of his maps by hand – no trickery going on here – this guy is the real deal and it shows in his work! His maps have a certain style that stands out amongst the rest!

The theme of this art pack is 'Island Maps' and he provides three awesome maps that will allow you to put together a nice adventure of your own!
How to Download Art Pack
You can get his tile pack by simply by opening Maptool and going to:
File -> Add to Resource Library, and click on the red gear. You will see his pack in the list.

and at his RPGNow and Paizo stores (search ‘Fantastic Maps’).

Maptool Bugs
Couple things worth mentioning:
1. Unfortunately there was a bug in Maptool 1.3B86 that prevents you from downloading art packs – Booo! :P
2. 1.3B87 (the latest version of Maptool) allows you to get art packs just fine, however, the license file will not appear during installation. I will supply that below. This will be fixed in Maptool 1.3B88.
3. Maptool 1.3b60 through 1.3B84 works fine when it comes to downloading and installing Art Packs. B85 works but doesn't show the license.

Thank you Torstan! You rock!
