#1 Aaron_Highcolor Aug 09, 2010 17:51:01	Now before you start on the "no piracy" rant, I'm looking for a digital copy because I'm LOATHE to tear my map out of my DSCS book. Anyone?
#2 ian.thomson Aug 09, 2010 21:11:50	You don't want a no piracy rant?  Too bad. YOU SHOULD BE ASHAMED for mentioning piracy in relation to Dark Sun.  There are no pirates on Athas, because there isn't enough water for naval warfare.  If you would just look at the map, I'm sure you'll find that to be the case.  PIRACY AND DARK SUN DO NOT MIX.  Despite bringing up pirate as an example for a theme when discussing themes, they have not said they have or will release a pirate theme.  WIZARDS OF THE COAST DOES NOT SUPPORT DARK SUN PIRACY.

You can likely wait for the Art Gallery for DSCS to be up, but the map will probably be low-res. I believe this map remains fairly accurate for 4e: www.digitalwanderer.net/darksun/
#5 mouthymerc Aug 09, 2010 21:59:09	Back to seriousness for a bit, if you have DDI, the map gallery should be available soon enough. There is one with the group of Creature Catalog artwork just released.
#6 fortman Aug 09, 2010 22:15:22	Oh yeah, missed those for some reason.
#7 Aaron_Highcolor Aug 10, 2010 14:56:08	Thanks all

I hear rumor of a device capable of capturing images of inanimate objects.  They call them.....scanners!  BEWARE OF THE LIGHT, IT CAN CAUSE BLINDNESS!

Ah, but going back to my original post, that would require me to tear the map out of my campaign setting book, which I DON'T want to do.
#10 RalofTyr Aug 12, 2010 23:31:34	Ah, but going back to my original post, that would require me to tear the map out of my campaign setting book, which I DON'T want to do. Buy another book then...

Its called a flatbed scanner, they come in all sizes.  Most have cool hinges so you could scan a page out of a 1ft thick dictionary if you wanted too
#12 FlashbackJon Aug 13, 2010 9:20:26	Its called a flatbed scanner, they come in all sizes.  Most have cool hinges so you could scan a page out of a 1ft thick dictionary if you wanted too It's called ruining the binding of a book so that ALL of the pages eventually come out instead.
#13 Aaron_Highcolor Aug 13, 2010 21:04:53	And besides, I'd still have to tear the map out, which is what I don't want to do....

Opening a book 150 degrees will not ruin the binding.  I've scanned dozens of pages from my RPG books.  You arent running a history muesum, the **** is supposed to be used.
#15 gujiaxian Sep 07, 2010 18:26:09	So, has no one scanned the Athas map from the DSCS? I just want a digital copy.
#16 Mock Sep 07, 2010 18:44:39	Someone here has, but is reluctant to distribute the file because it's not his to do so. I can dig it.
#17 gujiaxian Sep 07, 2010 19:41:07	I own the 4E books, but I don't have the scanner to scan the map myself. I'd really appreciate it if someone could even toss me a private message with the file (can you do that on these forums?)
#18 gujiaxian Sep 08, 2010 11:52:43	No one? C'mon, help out a fellow Dark Sun-er...okay, that's not quite the term I was looking for, but my point stands.
#19 Mock Sep 08, 2010 14:19:18	No one? C'mon, help out a fellow Dark Sun-er...okay, that's not quite the term I was looking for, but my point stands. The thread where I saw a user had a map was started by The Capn (maybe TheCapn?) - it's called Hex Map of Athas, I think.
#20 moxcamel Sep 08, 2010 15:05:08	No one? C'mon, help out a fellow Dark Sun-er...okay, that's not quite the term I was looking for, but my point stands. Did post #4 in this thread not help?
#21 gujiaxian Sep 08, 2010 15:53:26	It's something, yes, but I need a file I can download, hack apart for my campaign, load into Masterplan, etc.
#22 Mock Sep 08, 2010 21:00:01	Note that the map linked in post #4 is also available if you just Google image search for "athas maps". You won't find the one from the 4E books, but that one is available.
#23 plassteel Sep 09, 2010 16:07:34	So you going to send us the moeny to buy a second book?
#24 FlashbackJon Sep 09, 2010 17:44:22	I'm seriously just confused why my DDI subscription doesn't qualify me for map images that are bigger than a computer screen.  Grar.
#25 Mock Sep 13, 2010 13:10:57	The DDI article/feature/whatever "Traveling the Sandswept Roads" includes a very high-res copy of the map.
#26 koesherbacon May 16, 2011 23:13:00	I believe this map remains fairly accurate for 4e: www.digitalwanderer.net/darksun/ COOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL!  This map is beyond awesome!  Thanks for the link ;)
