This is a site for discussing roleplaying games. Have fun doing so, but there is one major rule: do not discuss political issues that aren't directly and uniquely related to the subject of the thread and about gaming. While this site is dedicated to free speech, the following will not be tolerated: devolving a thread into unrelated political discussion, sockpuppeting (using multiple and/or bogus accounts), disrupting topics without contributing to them, and posting images that could get someone fired in the workplace (an external link is OK, but clearly mark it as Not Safe For Work, or NSFW). If you receive a warning, please take it seriously and either move on to another topic or steer the discussion back to its original RPG-related theme.

I just came across the website of a guy who made some very impressive Traveller deck plans with AutoRealm. He also has a tutorial on the subject. It's pretty involved...

For what it's worth, almost everything on this page was made in AutoREALM, and this includes hex maps, cover illustrations and even clip art. It's a pretty good mapper for my purposes; MSPaint takes care of the after-mapping tuneup.

More modules!  Is there a means for me to get those and the website in English?

I want to add an English section to the site, but haven't had time yet. Some of the materials up there have been published in Fight On! or on //www.judgesguild.com before, though.

Here's a set of brushes for GIMP that will allow one to easily create custom old-school style TSR maps

Doc, in the comments section somebody asked that very question. The response:

    "Unfortunately I don't have Photoshop. It is pretty expensive and GIMP meets my needs for now. You can try to open the brush files in Photoshop, but I don't know if it reads GIMP brush files.

    If it does read them, then convert them to Photoshop files following Photoshop's instructions. If it doesn't read them, I suppose you could open the map key above in Photoshop and clip out the icons from the map key and make them into Photoshop brushes.

    If you do get it working, please send me the brush files and I'll make them available here."
