AFT Downloads is closing down soon. So if you need some Doctor Who themed paper terrain you best hurry.

That is sad news. I was also looking forward to their Star Wars pieces.

Has anyone else been doing a major download?

Has anyone else been doing a major download? I downloaded everything. My daughters love watching the Doctor, I'll scale the sets for them to play with playmobils.

I'm working on it, but I'm trying to keep things organized, and that takes a bit longer than I'd like. I'm actually finding things that I didn't remember were there

Organization!? I just put the lot on the same folder and done with that. When I put this to use I'll worry about what piece of what set each of these files are, but this a problem for future me, not present me.

I forced myself to just download the Star Trek rooms and the 8th Doctor's TARDIS (since it is somewhat rare and looks quite different from all the blue boxes seen in the series)...
Since those were all 3.75 inches sets, what percentage would you guys recommend for scaling them down to 30mm heroic standard?

Actually, a lot of the pieces are 5 inch. That's why on most pages they have the figure of the 5 inch guy and the 3.75 inch guy. For hallways, corridors and some of the rooms, I'm not sure scale matters that much. I generally look for screens that I don't want over everyone's heads, or controls and handles that I figure should be just taller than waist high (which is how I came up with the rescale on the Carriage House). I think that you aren't going to be able to just blanket rescale everything by X % and have things work.

Whew! Just finished two days of downloading everything. Never know when I'm going to want to use something. Waste not, want not. My sincere gratitude for all of his devoted work!

There was an update on the AFT Downloads page on September 30, as follows:
Following my announcement that the site is closing, I'm looking into keeping the images online somewhere so watch this space. This page will still be here so you can keep up to date.
Before I start taking stuff down next month, some people have asked for the latest stuff I've been working on but not had time to finish, specifically the Star Trek sets. So here they are, without tabs or instructions. Good luck.
There seemed to be at least three additional Star Trek items since my last check-in, so perhaps worth checking back for others here who might find them useful too. Hopefully though, the materials can survive in some form elsewhere regardless.

Just a bump on an old, old thread
If you hadn't checked the site lately, there is more Doctor Who stuff, more Star Trek stuff, the Batcave, Masters of the Universe and Big Bang Theory.
Pretty glad they didn't close
