I packaged up six combat maps, a couple of maps for navigating regions, and some backgrounds to like dollhouses during play.

It was a lot of work. For each map, there’s a PNG file with the hex grid, a PNG without the hex grid, the original SVG for editing, and a PDF containing the map broken into pages that can be printed and then lined up and taped to make the full map with a 0.75" hex grid.

Would anyone check these out and tell me if they look good?

Also: is there a better way to share these? I feel like people might be wary of downloading a 37 MB zip file from a stranger on Lemmy. Would people prefer that the files be stored on a cloud site like Dropbox instead of in a Zip file?

    Okay: I’ve started using this, and this is a great resource. I was wondering if I could make more pages within this subdomain. I’d like to add the following pages:

    • One page for each of the six maps, so that each page can list all the formats of each map.
    • A page for background images
    • A page for each of the four starting adventures, linking to all relevant assets
    • A page for user-generated assets.

    Is it possible to get permission to create new pages?

      You can create as many pages as you like in your Wiki namespace. With the exception of this specific page that lets you edit the namespace specific side menu, you can just replace the start in the URL with any other page name. Or alternatively you can make a Wiki link in the editor to a page that does not exist yet and reach it that way.

        I don’t think I currently have that privilege. I tried that, and the page has a message that says

        This topic does not exist yet

        You’ve followed a link to a topic that doesn’t exist yet. If permissions allow, you may create it by clicking on Create this page.

        And “Create this page” isn’t a clickable link.

        Edit: Never mind, I misunderstood the instructions!
