The maps in the adventures, take Troubles in Otari for instance are quite low in resolution, if I where to buy the same flip-maps in the store would these be of a higher resolution?
And as a side question, are the resolution heavily impacting the game experience and this is the reason for them to be so grainy?

The maps used in products are based off the digital assets provided by the publisher and also the FG guidelines: https://fantasygroundsunity.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/FGCP/pages/2037547009/Developer+Guide+-+Product+Guidelines Although the guidelines don't really apply to the Troubles in Otari map files that were provided by the publisher of that product, as these are smaller than the recommended max size. The maps all use 50 pixels per grid square.

I don't have the Flip Mat FG versions of the two maps that are on the PDF end papers, but I would imagine they will be 100 pixels per grid square (based off other FG flip-maps conversions by the same person).

Thank you for the swift reply, I might consider getting the flip mats then :)

And after having bought the flip mat version I can now confirm that the maps are of a higher quality :D
