Fantasy-Map-Generator VS obsidian-releases

Adding to the other answers, there are also -besides Photoshop, Gimp, etc- specialized tools to draw fantasy maps. The site mentions Wonderdraft [0], but there are a bunch of others though not all of them support using external brushes.

Some other tools in this space may be Watabou's tools [1], Azgaar's tools [2], Inkarnate [3], Mapforge [4], or quite a few more which you can find links to in this list [5]. Again: you could use these brushes with some of these; not all support external brushes.

If you're looking for a world map, https://azgaar.github.io/Fantasy-Map-Generator/ is great.

I'm working on a command line program, called Cosmopoeia, which can generate random fantasy worlds which can then be edited in GIS software. The idea was inspired by Azgaar's Fantasy Map Generator, so the results resemble maps created with that.

I've been using Azgaar's Fantasy Map Generator to help with naming conventions. There's a culture set dropdown and I've been using the dark fantasy set. This has sets like "Romian" and "Elladan" with a Latin-like and Greco-like naming convention respectively, and were the basis for the idea of having an Ancient Elven culture. Does anyone know where I might be able to view just the name database for this generator? I'd rather this than having to refresh the map every 5 mins.

Can't believe there's no link to https://azgaar.github.io/Fantasy-Map-Generator/ yet. It's an incredible tool with surprising depth and you can really lose yourself in generating and exploring worlds generated from scratch, their biomes, and the political relationships of nations and cultures.

I've generated and exported map from https://azgaar.github.io/Fantasy-Map-Generator/ to serve as a board for my board game mockup. After several playtests I've thought I could pimp up the graphics of the game even further and started using the SD for generation of the elements. So far it goes well, I've learned a lot already, but now I have huge problem with the map element itself.

Thank you again for the software, coupled with Azgaar's Fantasy Map Generator, this is making my life so much easier.

I have updated the Electron packages latest Chromium, that should fix a number of issues. If you use it, download an archive for your architecture below, unzip and run the executable file or the package:Windows x64 | MacOS arm64 | Linux arm64.

This site allows the genration of fairly detailed fantasy maps that are divided in small sections with different attributes.

The solution was already installed on both my computer and my phone: Obsidian.

> why does open source need to "win"

Open source does not need to win.

But your ability to be in control of your computer needs to be preserved. A proprietary fridge cannot control your diet, while a proprietary App Store can control what software you install on YOUR phone (unless you live in EU, hello DMA!). The tail wags the dog, so to speak. Proprietary software has also been shown to break user workflows or remove functions in an update while leaving users with no choice whatsoever.

One alternative to having open source win is to ensure software must come with a robust warranty and other assurances you expect from the things you buy. EU's CRA will make software vulnerabilities in WiFi routers covered by warranty, for example.

You can also ensure robust and interoperable data storage options. For example, https://obsidian.md/ stores all notes in Markdown, not holding the data hostage in case users will not like how future versions will work. GDPR actually has a provision for data portability (Art. 20), but it does not seem to have a requisite effect on the industry yet.

And until the above issues are solved, open source remains the best way to ensure that a software tail cannot wag your computer dog.

So I've had my fair share of personal websites and blogs. I have built them on stacks ranging from the most basic HTML and CSS, to hosted frameworks like Wordpress and Laravel, to the more modern single page applications built in Vue and React. For a simple content blog I think you can't go wrong with a Static Site Generator though. These days I am almost exclusively writing everything in Obsidian. Which is great because its all in standard markdown format. This allows for a really neat and easy content publishing workflow.

Consider making an Obsidian[^1] plugin, or writing to Obsidian-compatible Markdown files :)

Obsidian is a writing application created to allow for offline / private note taking in markdown format, in an interface that looks a lot like our regular programming IDE. It is very flexible, with a good collection of community plugins that you can use to customize Obsidian to your heart contents.

Obsidian support via our Obsidian Plugin

Thank you!

In the beginning, I used kognise'z water.css [1], so most of the smart decisions (background/text color, margins, line spacing I think) probably come from there. Since then it's been some amount of little adjustments. The font is by Jean François Porchez, called Le Monde Livre Classic [2].

I draft in Obsidian [3] and build the site with a couple python scripts and KaTeX.

Great job!

I played around with this on a couple of small knowledge bases using an open Hermes model I had downloaded. The “related notes” feature didn't provide much value in my experience, often the link was so weak it was nonsensical. The Q&A mode was surprisingly helpful for querying notes and providing overviews, but asking anything specific typically just resulted in less than helpful or false answers. I'm sure this could be improved with a better model etc.

As a concept, I strongly support the development of private, locally-run knowledge management tools. Ideally, these solutions should prioritise user data privacy and interoperability, allowing users to easily export and migrate their notes if a new service better fits their needs. Or better yet, be completely local, but have functionality for 'plugins' so a user can import their own models or combine plugins. A bit like how Obsidian[1] allows for user created plugins to enable similar functionality to Reor, such as the Obsidan-LLM[2] plugin.
