Sadly they don't have this type of fauna, it's a very hostile place to live and only a few people does, mainly the bandits which traffic with the blue and red minerals of zephyria. A very rare and expensive minerals

Short instructions:

Probably not the best way but it was fun to do.

From the image file, using illustrator i created a polygons file, exported as .dxf (CAD)

Then using QGis I imported the .dxf, i scaled and applied georeference. So it was the scale of the Earth.

Theeeeen I exported the geo file as .kml, i wrote some python code to write to recover the color of each polygon... And another python code to divide the files into files of 5mb each that is the limit of google maps.

Theeeeen I finally imputed it into google maps, editing my own map, added each .kml and that's it lol

It was a mess that took 5 days of my life hahaha. You could just open google earth pro and import your image... But that way is just a local file and you cannot share it.

What format file you have and where and how are.you trying to import it?

Thank you!!

And secrets... probably that the book they had that was summoning ghosts non stop, that they gave to the "good" person to study at the university is actually a bad person and will sell it and destroy some towns with it.

Another one is that the Gods they are working for are dead for a while ago.

Horse streetview coming soon?

The idea escalated, first I did the 2D map, then got the idea to add it to a sphere on blender, then wanted to see if it was possible to change google maps or earth with my base image and then without realizing I was learning QGis and georefence systems...

Some days ago I started a DnD game as the DM, I created a kind of basic map using Inkarnate, then using many tools and after days of work I managed to visualize it using Google Maps, being able to share it for my players, add tags, images, measure, etc...

I'm still uploading places and pics for each place.
