I certainly loved your San Francisco Bay Area and Longbeach maps! Tough and hugely interesting, based on real elevation data. Any new map in the works?

I've been working on a great lakes map, but the concept does not fit normal map boundries. May change it to a Michigan map... or scratch it all and start another. The editor for Dragon Age: Origins has been taking up more of my time too.

Hi CalmDragon,
Now that Dragon Age: Origins is a distant memory, any chance of returning to finish your most recent map?

Lost my prime hard drive last month, and moved from the beach to downtown. Need to find my CD and re-install and start editing again. Voice Acting hobby has taken a lot of my time lately too. Still have my DEM data on a flash drive, hmmmm....

Tough times
But you should not let your railroading talent go to waste!

After six years, my stance on SAM maps has softened.
Another four years and I may retire.
I have an idea for a new series of maps.
Now to fire up the old system and see if the old version of MicroDEM still works the way I remember.
The new version of data files use a new technology and hence have a new learning curve.

Well, being that I am one of the main instigators of the SAM style, what IS your 'softened' stance on SAM? And why has it softened?

Not looking for a 'i stand my ground on my doings', I just often have looked for opinions of them. Some of them have helped to transform them to what they are now.
