I think there’s something important to consider: mountains aren’t always a barrier. Having grown up in a town in the mountains, I feel like they are also a place alike the desert or the forest or the plains. So there can be town directly between the mountains, because there’s also valleys, rivers, lakes, etc. They aren’t just walls that impede traveling or that are uninhabitable. Heck, just look at the whole Huasteca Potosina region. It’s a huge ridge that goes along central-eastern Mexico and has loads of major cities, towns, etc. I’m using it for inspiration for a region in my fantasy novel.

People tend to have flat plains and ridiculously high mountains in their maps. Probably the influence of European geography?

@mexa_t6534 4 жыл бұрын

Caleb Sommers well see Mexico is really mountainous, particularly the west and the south and they have some very tall mountains, but most major cities in the region are smack in the middle of them, as is in the Huasteca region next to the gulf. There’s also cities in the Rockies and the Appalachians, right?

It gave a really natural look. He did one with the Mediterranean Sea, and BOY did it have a lot of lakes and swamps in the North East.

In my cartography class our professor explained that having the illumination for a map being from the upper-left corner is the gold standard for map making. Not just fantasy, but real world maps as well. It looks more natural to us for some reason and helps to bring shapes out more than having the light coming from the upper right.

Dude, I'm a geologist undergrad and got my MS in meteorology. My world has seafloor spreading, a divergent rift valley with a dead arm, a hot spot that is forming an archipelago. My mountains have a strong impact on the climate in terms of deserts and temperate rainforest locations, as well as dictating river direction and size. I also have a really freaking sweet canyon area where the Dragonborn make their home as far from humans as possible because... reasons. I think I spent three times longer making sure my geology and climatology were perfectly logical in function than I did placing my settlements and cities in relation to those features. ^_^

It occurred to me, what if the cartographer's preference for shading left or right side of a mountain comes from whether or not they're a morning or evening person. That is at dawn the shadow will be on the left of the mountain, and the dusk the shadow on the east of the mountain. The morning (dawn) people will most often see the left side dark and associate that as the norm, whilst the evening (dusk) people will most often see the right side dark and associate that as the norm.

@griffincreech2019 4 жыл бұрын

Glen Yardley this is interesting but most likely inaccurate because unlike looking at a map, Earth is 3D so you don’t always look at it from the same direction. You could be a night owl but still see shading on the left side depending on which direction you’re facing.

I personally want to include the minutiae like plate tectonics, for one since I want a land lost beneath the waves that players can locate using geological clues, and also to track humanity’s migration patterns resultant in paralleled languages and physiological features in people who are now separated by several millennia and leagues of open ocean. “Lore says that there was a temple on the highest mount of the sunken land; let’s use basic geology to figure out the most promising areas to sound.” “It seems that these ancient texts refer to religious beliefs closely congruent with those of the mainland of Zer, and if that is true, then the customs should be similar as well. In that case, we should examine the far grounds for the burial grounds.” I personally want that consistency and predictability to reward attentive players’ intelligent conjectures.

This is comment is probably too long ago to see my reply but, but on the topic of too long ago, if civilization has existed long enough on your world for tectonic plates to change up the makeup of your world, it has also probably invented space travel. All the paper currently in the world would crumble to dust before the continents change shape. Thats way too freaking long, unless they have some magic that stifles technological progress, and keeps age old artifacts intact.

5:03 - that is exactly what I like to use mountains for. They are a nice tool to "funnel" the (player) characters towards a passage so something could happen to them on that journey. Or they are a plot point - like people crossing that passage are lost and the heroes have to find them or there are bandits and/or monsters to be defeated. I wouldn't split a continent right in the middle, though. But isolating a peninsula by a mountainrange with only one passageway makes for a good setup for an adventure.

You should definitely always shade on the right hand side of maps. Real world maps are virtually always shaded this way, and we're so used to it that doing otherwise can make the topography look inside out. Obviously, the style of most fantasy maps will help prevent that effect, but shading on the left runs the risk of making your maps look "off" in a way that's hard to pinpoint.

Hi WASD20, The point (for me) of plate tectonics is that it gives me the geology. THIS would be a sedimentary basin. This area was crushed, so there would be a lot of metamorphic rocks. Shallow seas would be here. We have a rift valley, so the rivers will be weird in this area. That area is ripe for a igneous province like the Deccan Traps. This continental margin rolled over a mantle hot spot, so these mountains will be especially metal rich. Maybe put a mantle plume here? Super rich metals, and kimberlite for massive diamonds. Generally, the stronger your science background, the more use you will get out of thinking thru the plate tectonics. Warm regards, Rick.

@magiv4205 5 жыл бұрын

I would agree that it is not compulsory, but depending on the age of your world, plate tectonics may well have been an influence regardless of who or what created the planet. If your world is only, say, less than 10'000 years old, plate tectonics would be pretty insignificant and the geography would, outside of big catastrophies, pretty much look like when the gods first created it, which can be whatever the hell you like. If your world is many millions or even billions of years old and the gods pretty much didn't intervene with the geography on a grand scale since creation, then the world would probably look much more realistic since plate tectonics would have altered the planet far from how it may have looked originally.

Mountain ranges usually appear in clear lines, but the map of Europe is its own chapter. And figuring out Europe's winding mountains, peninsulas and strange shapes still causes trouble for geologists, and when one problem is solved, ten new problems arise that are waiting for an answer. For example, how the Iberian Peninsula was formed in the right time and right place without overlapping with the Adrian microplate, how many microplates form the Anatolian Peninsula, what is happening on the seabed between Spain and Corsica or how how the Carpathian Mountains on Balkan Peninsula got its characteristic s-bend shape (which oddly enough cannot be reproduced by computer simulations). But if you're a freak like me who loves the strange shapes of Europe and wants to replicate them on a fantasy map, welcome to the challenge club.

The mountain range at the east of your big continent breaks your tectonic plates rules. Looks like your two continents were one in the past (they fit with one another) and now are drifting apart. If they are drifting apart there shouldn't be a sobduction under that mountan range tu push it up. Usually in a rift escenario like this one, the newly formed oceanic plate fuses with the continent it was formed into and makes it very dificult for it to subdue under it.
