Hello friends, I thought I would pop in and let you all know that I have started to work on the next Map Tiles set: Caves. This set is going to contain a wealth of map tiles that you can use to build underground cave systems with passageways, and large cave rooms. At the moment the collection of map tiles is in the early stages of production, but I do have some goodies to share. First up is a sneak peek at a passageway that I am working on.

Next up is the first map tiles pre-production pack that I have uploaded to the Studio Store. Cave Map Tiles: Pack #1 (https://www.wyldfurr.com/index.php/product/cave-map-tiles-pack-1/?utm_source=Fantasy%20Grounds%20Forum&utm_medium=Forum%20Post&utm_term=Cave%20Map%20Tiles%20Pack%201&utm_content=Cave%20Map%20Tiles%20Pack%201&utm_campaign=Cave%20Map%20Tiles%20Pack%201) contains a collection of Dirt Tiles. These tiles fulfill much the same role as the basic tiles in the other Dungeon Map Tiles (https://www.wyldfurr.com/index.php/all-portfolio-list/dungeon-map-tiles/?utm_source=Fantasy%20Grounds%20Forum&utm_medium=Forum%20Post&utm_term=Dungeon%20Map%20Tiles&utm_content=Dungeon%20Map%20Tiles&utm_campaign=Dungeon%20Map%20Tiles) sets, or the Grass Tiles from the first set. I'll be adding later on a collection of Dirt Tiles that will let you inter-mesh dirt and grass areas.

Sneak peek at one of the Multi-tile Connector Blocks that you can use to connect between a passageway made with Dungeon Map Tiles and a passageway made with Cave Map Tiles.

Stop taking photographs of actual dungeons and trying to pass it off as digital tiles! :p

The second pack of the Cave Map Tiles set has just been posted to the Studio Store. This pack contains a wealth of tiles for building all the walls and passageways of your monster lair, underground cave, bandit hideout, or any other cave like structure you can dream up. To build large cave chambers, build the walls with the tiles in this pack, then fill in the cave floor with the tiles from the first pack.

it seemed like a good idea at the time. i mean why wouldnt going into that dark cave entrance be the smart thing to do? are those claw marks on the stone? what is that smell? how many critters made those tracks?

I have just wrapped up part three of the Cave Map Tiles (https://www.wyldfurr.com/index.php/product/cave-map-tiles-pack-3/?utm_source=Fantasy%20Grounds%20Forum&utm_medium=Forum%20Post&utm_term=Cave%20Map%20Tiles%20Pack%203&utm_content=Cave%20Map%20Tiles%20Pack%203&utm_campaign=Cave%20Map%20Tiles%20Pack%203) and posted the zip file to the Studio Store. This part contains the diagonal walls for the caves. The tiles include a number of single tile peices, and an assortment of multi-tile blocks for quickly building long sections of wall.

I've also poped into this pack a few feature dirt tiles, with patchy grass, rock piles, and a muddy puddle.

This pack expands on the Grass tiles from the original Dungeon Map Tiles set and the Dirt Tiles from the current Cave Map Tiles set with transition tiles between the two. The transition tiles include two styles, one style of just grass merging to dirt, and then a second set that has grass coming to the lip of a dirt ditch or culvert. Plus there are dead end tiles and two rock wall pillars.

The next part of the Cave Map Tiles set has just been finished and uploaded to the studio Store. This part gives you access to a range of curved walls set on ether a 5ft radius or a 10ft radius circle. With these curved sections of wall, you can build far more organic shapes in your underground cave system.

Part #6 has just been wrapped up and posted to the Studio Store (https://www.wyldfurr.com/?utm_source=Fantasy%20Grounds%20Forum&utm_medium=Forum%20Signature&utm_campaign=Forum%20Discussion). This part of the Cave Map Tiles set includes a few different odds'n'ends. First up are a set of dirt step tiles. Tiles that can be used to create the impression that there is a recessed or lower area of dirt terrain. After this are a series of waters edge multi-tile blocks for adding a water feature to your maps. This then spun off a bunch of wooden jetty multi-tiles and a range of tiles for building wooden walkways and platforms over water tiles. The water tiles link up to the water tiles from the first Dungeon Map Tiles (https://www.wyldfurr.com/index.php/all-portfolio-list/dungeon-map-tiles/?utm_source=Fantasy%20Grounds%20Forum&utm_medium=Forum%20Post&utm_term=Dungeon%20Map%20Tiles&utm_content=Dungeon%20Map%20Tiles&utm_campaign=Dungeon%20Map%20Tiles) set.

The end is starting to come into sight. Just finished working on some interlinking tiles so that a cave system can be linked to a Dungeon system made with the Dungeon Map Tiles original set.

But also working on some cave ideas as entrances to a cave map system.

Excellent, can't wait to have the set.
Do you have any plans on doing a wasteland or apocalypse setting set?
Towns and bunkers/vaults?

We shall have to wait and see. I want to get this set finished and wrapped up. Then I plan to do a few more token sets, mostly monsters and the like as I think there are enough "player character" token sets and not enough monsters.

But I still plan to release more Map Tiles, but they may be stand alone packs. Kind of "addon" packs that expand the big sets. In those I will more than likely build some wasteland and apocalypse stuff. I know I have a road in mind that will work with both the grass and dirt tiles.

Part seven is ready and just been uploaded. This is a little pack of finishing and polishing tiles that give Map Builders access the details such as a wildreness surface cave to act as the entrance to a cave system. Plus interlinking tiles that will let you link up a Dungeon complex build with the map tiles from the first Dungeon Map Tiles set to a cave system built with this set of map tiles.

One thing that would be nice - include instructions for using with US Letter paper sizes (and the GIMP/Photoshop template). That will help us people stuck in North America where we can't get access to A4 paper without paying stupid amounts of money.

I have updated the zip file to include page layouts for US Letter and Legal page sizes, plus I have also tweaked and updated the Print Maps PDF. Everyone who has the pack, should get an email about downloading an updated zip file.
