Preview: Castle Ravenloft

1 - PLEASE READ

This is just a preview! The actual pack will be released within the next 7 Days WITHOUT ANY FURTHER COSTS for you. WHY?

So I post this still in June, you will receive its content during the next days AND TWO MORE regular releases during July a...

Tser Pool Camp & Beneos Tokens -> Ben's Day on (not so) Wednesday CW21

Hey you Pen & Paper fans out there, this week I am back with a brief update because I still have so much to do. On the bright side, everything is map and token related :P


Tser Pool Camp and Madame Eva’s Tent

What I really love about creating maps is that even the easiest and uncomplicated map still offers so much room for creativity and details. Making th...

A Wild Castle Ravenloft Appears -> Ben's Day on Wednesday CW20

Hey you Pen & Paper fans out there. This is our newest weekly update.

New Design and Logo

I took some time to finalize my design. I always liked the minimalistic black and white theme of Beneos Battlemaps because it provided space for all the fancy worlds we create. But my logo has always been a pain point for me, so I made a new one.

This is my magic. My holy g...

About Discords and Bonegrinders -> Ben's Day on Wednesday CW19

Hey you pen & paper fans out there,

This week, as the last ones, is all about optimizing and testing. As I wrote last week, I try to stick to my 2 releases a month schedule and that means I need to define deadlines for myself. That means I only have limited time slots to test things and Invest time for new features such as the animated tokens, our new website or Foundry VTT Premium adventures. I also met the super kind 2021-05-12 21:35:42 +0000 UTC View Post

Vallaki is Burning -> Ben's Day on Wednesday CW17

Hey you Pen & Paper Fans out there. This week went faster than the Voyager in trans warp channels. I nearly finished my next map pack - another Vallaki approach! This week I will release the coffin makers shop in two different versions. One normal and one burning version. Why fire? I don't now what your Curse of Strahd groups are doing but in 3 of 4 groups I led to Vallaki the players ended up burning down the coffin makers shop.

Incomming Quality Update! TheForge Integration -> Ben's Day on Wednesday CW16

Hey you Pen & Paper Fans out there. This week I worked on many different topics. My to do list is huge! Oh and don't start with "BEN, MAKE MAPS NOT RANDOM STUFF!" I have enough productivity for 4 Maps ( If I would ever wan't to though) but that would be way too much (and too expensive:P ). So I use my spare time to update, optimize and expand things as well as trying out new stuff and experiment like a child with lego. So let's just jump right into it.

WebM Poll and Animated Tokens (Again) -> Ben's Day on Wednesday CW15

Hey you P&P Fans out there,

We finally released the Yester Hill and now I will go for the Coffin Makera Shop to fix this lose end in vallaki.It should be ready pretty fast and will be a smaller pack (unlicke the last two giant releases). Please give me Feedback in the comments what map should come after. I still need to do the easy things like the old Bonegrinder and the Tser pool encampment. But what do you think?

NEW: Tier 4 - Master Download Folder

Hey P&P Fans out there,

Happy Easter! I found some eggs as well!

I got Feedback that I did too many maps :P Because of the 18 packs with more than 496 FoundryVTT relevant sceneries and battlemaps it apparently gets kind of exhausting downloading the files one by one to put them into the FoundryVTT folder manually.

Thanks to Hades who contaced me and gave me feedback I c...

How long does it take to build a map? Speed Build Video

Hey you Pen & Paper Fans out there,

While I work on the next map pack here is a video showing how I did the Bluewater Inn. In case you didn't see it already - the video shows all phases of the map building process in the Unreal Engine. Blocking out the map, arranging meshes, textureing the layout, lighting, environment, camera placement and rendering. It also shows how detailed the maps are build (most likely way more detailed than neccessary).

All the best and stay health...

POLL TIME: Animated Tokens? Landing Pages? Isometrics?

Hey you P&P Fans out there. I've got a lot of feedback over the last months and I am starting more and more to take this hobby serious :P The reason why is that so many people joined us here on patreon. Way, way more people than I ever considered being interested in what I do! That makes me proud but also at the same time is a big responsibility that I need to implement in may daily routine and my workflow.
