Shi_t Delete

Shift delete killed the map maker. When erasing some old files I somehow completely deleted the folder in which housed my sidescroller map maker.

Which is pretty shitty in itself.

Anyways I moved on and set up a new folder for my current reworking of a 3d rpg.

I've sketched out some notes and concepts on how it will function and how much detail goes into making a map.

I do plan to release the rpg finished or demo with map maker included.

I scanned the notes but then found out that the server is not accepting uploading, and when it seemed to it just sent me to a blank page template…eh. I'm not sure how readable it would have since pencil and scanners seem to dislike each other.

I do plan to add in parts of what I had done with the side scroller map maker to this new one.

Like not drawing walls that are touching.

Tintable textures.

Two potential textures for basic structures(walls,floors,ect.)

Layered options for adding vines and such.

Height map editor with various options to the drawing, controlling the shape/size/strength/falloff of the brush and the tint of the terrain.

Each map will also have enviromental options including weather types, water types, and climate tempratures.

I want to reach a balance between realism and campy old school rpg'in' so this may come out wierd or interesting whenever if ever I finish.
