Modular is my absolute favorite as it gives us GMs more flexibility. Stand-Alone Maps are... well ... stand-alone and what happens around these maps? Create maps that help us build whole settings... but modular. - modern bunkers - ruined bunkers - gas-stations - secret labs - hospitals - night-clubs - storage areas - outside of buildings - ruined houses - gang-hideouts - military installation - CIA black-site - garage - living blocks - wasteland camps - space station - harbor - cargo ship & military ship (ruined and in good condition) - slums There are settings without end! And modular: - rooms - filled and empty (I love empty rooms!!! which I can fill to the story) - hallways - secret passages - air-ducts - escalators - elevators The key is to make it modular and interconnecting

You'll usually see it in the file name. A lot of the maps will be 1920x1080, and I've noticed many of the grids are also 64px, so you can change the grid size to that. Can't say it'll be the case for every map, but most of the ones I've used work that way.

Hello, I'm a big fan of your work, however; could you please put the dimensions of each map. Specifically, the length and width for use in Roll20. I have tried the align to grid, but I'm still plagued with maps not aligning with Roll20's grid. Thanks for your help.

Jason Oliver

Seconded! I'd love to give my players a big home base to hang out in!

VeiledMalice .

And some less-luxurious ones would be great as well. Maybe some tiles for room contents so that they're modular/customizable?

Jeff

Great idea! I'll see what I can do!

Solution

Since the build-a-headquarters DLC for Cyberpunk Red was released, I have another map suggestion! A modular penthouse/luxury apartment with room options to go along with the potential upgrades in the DLC. I.e. Medbay, lounge, etc.

Amazing maps, love them. Beautifully designed. Worth every penny. If you looking for inspiration I think it would be cool to have a Night City China Town/Japan town. Thanks for your work!

Brian Barrett

I would like to suggest a university campus map! Such as a campus quad, student lounge, library, etc

Zandrea Maro

Thanks Shane, appreciate the heads up!

Hey DMStevO! Appreciate the kind words! Here in the Quick Access or the Monthly Poll posts are great places for that, alternatively on the discord we have an ideas board for discussion!

Solution

I love these maps! You are a great artist sir. Where can we add ideas for maps? Because I would love some starship interiors.

DMStevO

Hi there. I would love to see a map like "SOL-WastelandGas-Map Sq" but as a rich peoples city house, or even a normal city house with plot. Thanks in advance!

Michael Richter

Man I love all of this, so happy to subscribe! Looking through the content, a couple things I'd really like to see are subway and monorail maps for the Dystopian City, but instead of the stations like you've already worked on, I'm interested in the train cars themselves (in motion or not). I use these for shadowrun, so it'd also be cool to see a talismonger's shop (basically a cyberpunk store but it sells magical reagents and things). I noticed you're splitting off and doing fantasy stuff on another Patreon, Shadowrun does a lot of blending of the Cyberpunk and Fantasy stuff, so maybe you'll find ways to incorporate some of those things together. Just some ideas I thought I'd toss your way. Once again, I am floored by your existing content. Thank you so much.

Happy to hear Lore, thank you for the support!

Solution

Not an idiot question at all! So, when I first started making maps, it was before the Pandemic hit. The earliest maps from 2 years ago have a slightly distorted grid size - This was due to the fact the maps were originally made with TV's in mind. Obviously after that VTTs really took off massively and I moved to a more VTT friendly grid. Map grids are 64px (HD1080) or 128px (UHD4K). I am standardising the gridding going forward, and a few of these have already been released (Commercial Subway Entrance for example). The newer maps will have sizes in both the Patreon post and Google Drive folder for convenience. I am currently in the process of going over each previous release and adding in the gridding details to the google drive folder and post. It'll take some time but I will get round to sorting it all out. Apologies for the ramble and there not being a "1 size fits all" - it won't be a problem going forward!

Solution

Idiot question, but when importing into a VTT (like Foundry) what grid size do I want to use?

Mark

Thank you very much for this post, I regularly use your maps for my games and it's nice to be able to browse through these when I am unsure what I may need!

To piggy back off of Mike Michaels' idea of the large scale city blocks, have you considered modular >small< maps that come as a kit? Think about something like "industrial bunker", and you start with a base kit that's straight, curve, T-section, cross roads. You could then consider making lighting sets for dark (and/or abandoned) / light (and/or in daily use) and maybe alert (emergency lights). This would give you the benefit of having building blocks you could expand with unique rooms ("new this week: network operations center!"), or even further into the future, create new sets, and transitions ("introducing, the caves! Comes with two transistions "bunker gate" and "collapsed bunker hallway"). This is obviously a much larger concept to chew on, but would create a set you could monetize on DriveThru-RPG et. al. as a system with expansions, too.

Cyn Cid

I can't wait to see what you come up with. Your maps are incredible! The commercial quarter maps will be a good addition to my campaign already. Thank you!

Mike Michaels

Leave it with me Mike and I'll do some more testing. I have previously tried large scale interiors but sadly with the perspective requirements for 3D rendering it can make maps look rather squished. I pushed the boundaries out with the Commercial Quarter Shopping Precinct release so I believe I may be able to go a little larger but for multiple city blocks... Hmmm, I'm not sure. I'll give it a go and see though!

Solution

Curious if you have any (or have any plans for) larger scale maps? Something that could span a few city blocks would really let my AR players shine.

Mike Michaels

Consider it done, Cyn! What I typically say to a lot of people with ideas is if there's a piece of concept art or screenshot out there that grabs your attention, drop me a DM with a link and I can certainly see about capturing the feel of it!

Solution

We've seen a lot of more polished and fancy places, but the grimey, run-down back alleys, and the desolate ruins still inhabited out in the boonies would be cool to see more of. I'd be super interested in drug-dealer den, or a shady gun/gear store & warehouse hidden in a dirty part of town. Maybe a crumbling, abandoned construction site turned into a headquarters of illicit trading.

Cyn Cid

prison maps - one with prison cells (to escape from) and a recreation area/exercise yard (for another fight scene). Thanks

Gary Watson

restaurant kitchen map - with lit gas stoves, knives and pots and pans laying around and with a meat storage fridge- got a fight scene coming up in one so would love a map

Gary Watson

loving your work. Could i put in a request for the following:

So it did! Consider it fixed and thank you Shane!

I'm one of those people who would like to talk to you about an agreement for comercial use if you've got time.

Wormwood

Absolutely! It's high up on my to-do list but it's one of those maps that I feel needs multiple different locations and I want to make sure I nail it!

Solution

Any plan to make an Hospital like Trauma Team HQ? i´m looking for somthig like that

La Tardis Vlog

I really need more night market settings as well as bars with themes. Great work as always!
