The Story Guide: Overland and Town Map tool – Flowscape

I have started using a program called Flowscape to create overland maps. It is a very fast tool to make very professional maps quickly. And its only $15.99 on Steam!

I have used it to make simple overhead battle maps like this:

With a little more time , I have also used it to make maps for towns. The paint tool is used to paint down flora, paths, and buildings. The buildings are a little harder to place as you have to scroll through a style of building to find the right ones with no preview, but it really doesn’t take that long.

Check out the town of Pacov below:

Which also allows you to take some nice mood photos to show your players! The camera can be flown around the landscape to get the perfect shot. You can also adjust the photo like a real camera. With the right lighting and skybox, you can make some pretty impressive shots.
