@ Falconius and Jo - Thank you, both for being concerned. Its nothing serious. Just a personal upset. that's all.
I'm very sorry to hear that too... I hope it's only temporary, and that you'll be back very soon !
You spent so much time and energy in your beautiful map... Now I'm sure everyone would like to see it finished ! I hope it'll be possible one day...
Meantime, I wish you all the best, and I'm looking forward to hear better news from you !
God bless

Version 40
Benchmark
This version reflects the loss of a rather large and independently supplied symbol set that I was using in addition to the Profantasy software. The red crosses are how CC3+ marks the location of missing reference files.
I have decided to draw and create my own additional symbols to replace them. I am aiming to do this with the help of Blender (for the basic tree shapes), CorelDraw, for the leaves, and NeotextureEdit, for the one missing texture in the map - the rubble that served as my rocky shores.
I have no idea how good or bad it will look, but that's most of the fun of making a map.
Progress, of course, will be slow compared to before, although I think I can probably replace all the buildings fairly quickly with one or more of the City Designer 3 sets

Version 41
I replaced the three missing fills (there were two in the frame as well as the one in the map) and deleted all the tree Xs. The island looks very bare now, but things will get better.
I've left the building Xs in place because that's my next job - to rebuild all the houses.
The ivy frame is just a stop gap fill - one of my own making. I will be doing a new wood texture before long

What happened ?
Hey Jo
I uninstalled 2/3 of my symbol set - all the NON CC3 ones.
I still have the Bogie Mapping Objects installed, which is why there's still a map to look at, because most of the textures are Bogie textures.
That was what upset me yesterday. I couldn't see a way of carrying on with half the map missing like that, and I was about to give up, but I feel much better about the whole thing now thanks to the support I was shown by the Profantasy Team, and I now have a new way of looking at the situation: This isn't a disaster - its a new opportunity. I've been meaning to make a few of my own symbols anyway - so why not start right here and now?
It has of course meant that I didn't have time to be part of the Lite Challenge, but I can enter another one someday
So... It looks like you aren't the only one who will be drawing lots of trees

I'm glad to read that you're back on your map...
But I understand that it was kind of a
disaster !!!!
I salute your courage to go back on this map
and to work on your own symbols !
Your map is so promising that it's really a good thing that you don't quit !
If I can help, let me know... I would be glad to draw symbols for you, if you want !
