Pardon my ignorance, but what is a SVG image and how do i make one? A current map from Dundjinni that I made required a high res due to footprints on the floor that could be followed. A smaller sized map would have saved me the 2 days it took to search this forum and the java forum to figure out how to make java max out more memory.trevor wrote:then you should use SVG (vector) based images. Saves a crap load of memory, and has infinite ability to scale.
As a bonus, I did learn a lot about RPTools and Java .
I direct you to Wikipedia: Scalable Vector GraphicsDark_Wyvern wrote:Pardon my ignorance, but what is a SVG image and how do i make one?

Here are more generic insides I made for Hylas's building Set1Misc3.

And here is a Bank I made:
Notice that the secure area walls are lined with steel. I was going to put a lever and switch in the secure area to open a secret door leading to the basement but I figured it would be just as easy to stamp them down if needed.
Again, the inside of the buildings can be stamped down in Maptool as shown below:
Here is the building template that I used to create the inside so that it would match the building:
Hope you enjoy!

Same Floor Plan as above but decided on another tavern. You can never have enough taverns!
My thoughts were this: I wanted to create a little classier tavern but not royalty. I figured make it 3 tier - low half, balcony and an upstairs (not included). This gives it a feel that there is 3D space to it. The balcony area has a piano player that plays there regularly. It gets pretty wild on the weekends! They don't have a kitchen here and usually get their food from the restraunt next door who they have an agreement with. They deliver the food as an order is placed. I figured upstairs could be another bar area - this place is a hoot! No bedrooms here!
Some Detail:
More Detail:
Note: You may want to stamp windows where you see fit. I left these out since every GM has different ideas about windows.
I hope you enjoy! I can't wait to see some that others make!

Thanks Heruca!
Here is another one for those who wish to make this building into anything they want. Just stamp down your goodies!
