I used Hexographer. The basic terrain wasn't randomly generated. It was based on the southern coast of the island of Ektau and the border region between the Mandarinate of Xian and the Magocracy of Tien Lung, as shown on the maps in the Red Tide sourcebook. The city of Haicheng, the Lanbaoshi River and some of the nearby villages were put on the map before I began play, but most of the locations were randomly generated during play. Scarlet Heroes does provide a mechanism for randomly generating the basic terrain of an area, which I did use in an earlier campaign and which I think is probably the best tool for realistic but random generation of terrain.
Awesome game, I think SH is huge fun. How do you generate your wilderness map?
