Roleplay Overview & Staff

Welcome to the Terraconserva Roleplay Association! You can just call it the "roleplay" or "RP" though, if you like. Our community roleplay is a world-building project where you can develop your nation's lore, have it be placed on our map, and more! If you haven't joined our Discord server yet, be sure to do so, as that is where most roleplay-related chat happens. 

We have two venues for posting roleplay content. First is on the regional pages on NationStates.net, which you're already likely familiar with. The second is our custom wiki-style website, linked here. If you haven't already, make an account there! To sign up for the roleplay and get started, please use the sign-ups thread, which can be found at this link.

Questions or concerns? Below is our roleplay staff, including moderators (those who make final decisions) and advisors (those who help the moderators manage the roleplay and integrate new people). You can contact any member of the staff, or ping them in Discord for help.

  Nationbuilding Resources
Posted by: Spode - 09-15-2022, 07:23 PM - Forum: Roleplay Information - Replies (5)

Making nations can involve a lot of graphics, documentation, etc. Making all that can be difficult! Here's a thread for sharing resources we find online surrounding making government documents, flags, maps, the whole thing.


I'll be updating this OP periodically with resources if anyone posts them (or if I find any other cool ones).



Flag making websites:


  • Flag Designer: This website has a limited selection of symbols that users can put on their flags, but has a robust number of patterns. Perhaps best of all, the website allows you to save your work as an SVG (scalable vector graphic) file, which means it can then be scaled up and down without loss of detail found in other file formats.
  • Tennessine: This website is a bit more work to figure out, but it makes very interesting flags, with lots of customization possibilities. There's even filters to provide "inverted color" flag copies. It provides options to download user created flags as both SVGs as well as PNGs.
  • Flag Creator: I cannot in good conscience recommend this tool unless you really dig paying to remove watermarks and deal with paywalls. The features included on this website are by no means unique, and there are free tools (or free versions of them) which do the exact same thing without begging for your money. A link to this accursed website is here if you wish to sate a morbid curiosity. 
  • Fake Flag: Allows you to add whatever modern real life flag symbols and patterns you want. It supports PNG downloads. Only thing about it is that it takes a good long while to load up when you open the page.

Map making resources:
  • Something About Maps: A blog from a university educated cartographer, it has a section (where the link points to) devoted to tutorials ranging from how to make map effects in tools ranging from Blender (which is free), Illustrator (not free), and Photoshop (not free). That said, even though the content may be using these tools, the lessons contained can help with making maps in other software.
  • Azgaar's Fantasy Map Generator: This will generate maps, usually islands. It could be useful to make a world map, or a continent, or even just an island. Turning off all of the layers means that the website basically becomes a coastline generator, and that could be the basis of a whole other map. Interestingly, the download section has a ton of features, you can download in normal file formats like PNGs and JPEGs at varying levels of resolution, as well as SVGs. More exotically, you can download GIS data (used in professional settings for topography work) as well as JSON data (for working with the output with programs or scripts).
  • Map to Globe: This allows you to put a 2D map onto a 3D sphere. Caveat- that means distortions around the poles and equator unless the 2D map's projection is accounting for this already. It's a very useful tool to get from a Equirectangular projection of a world (probably the ones you'd see in geography textbooks) into other projections, and to get a better idea of how the world 'wraps around the edge'. In terms of output, you can save new projection types as PNGs, and it supports making GIFs of the globe rotating with your map on it. It also supports getting multiple screenshotted angles of the globe as PNG image files.
  • WikiProject Maps & Conventions: Want to make a Wikipedia style map but don't know how they style maps? Well this has links to every Wikipedia standard map, from the Orthographic maps of single countries that people often put on their wiki pages to the challenging Topographic maps which are used as backdrops for many different maps.

  Nation / Region Tagging Codes
Posted by: Quebecshire - 09-15-2022, 05:43 PM - Forum: Administrative Bureau - Replies (1)

Hello all. Using MyCode, a feature we have on our forum software, I have (with some outside help), created a new custom code for us to use to make posting easier and more familiar. The one I've started us with is the nation tagging code, replicated exactly from how they are on NationStates.net. I've attached an example, the code you'd type to use it, and the displayed result.

Nation Code

Code:
[nation]Quebecshire[/nation]

Quebecshire

It's not a substantial change, but hopefully it serves as a minor quality of life/convenience update! I also plan to add a region tagging code once I figure out the issue that it is currently having. Enjoy.

Andrew Du Day


Presented by: The League of Conservative Nations' Citizens' Assembly's Official Opposition

Preamble: To remember the valiant efforts to protect our region, it's elementary that we mark a date on our calendar.

THE LEAGUE GOVERNMENT DECLARES:

That the following be added to the Regional Calendar of The League:

The LAF would later evolve to create ramifications, such as the Intelligence Agency and the Homeland Security Agency. This system became known as the Department of Defense. Under Andrew Du's leadership, the Armed Forces ensured the region's security, whilst also becoming a part of the region's culture and soul. This was impactfully noticed when Du became inactive and is why this date receives his name.
