They are so big and detailed but also pretty uniform looking, meaning styles don't really change from one map to another.. do they use a specific program? I've made several maps using photoshop, but alas don't think i could ever get them quite so professional looking. other programs for fantasy map making look decent, but no screenshots i've seen are on the same level. Just to clarify again, i'm only talking about world maps specifically, not cities or dungeons.

If you REALLY want to know, on the very front of the book, with all the publishing info, most RPG books include what software they use. I know WFRP does... and I remember one Wizards book saying what they use (though I forgot).
