Tile selection was point and click and tile rotation was a mouse click. The demo was wicked easy to use and manipulate. There are tons of map packs available through the Kickstarter and they have a host of artistic partners that will be creating an ever increasing amount of content in the future following the Kickstarter campaign. The developer asserts that the final product will also be able to import existing mapping resources from sites RPGmapshare and the Dundjinni.
The interface is easy to use and pretty intuitive. Dundjinni is dead, long live MapForge!įrom what I have seen in the publicly available demo, this program will be leaps and bounds above Dundjinni’s capability from back in the day. This is the next generation of map making software and the future is looking bright. At one time, Dundjinni was the gold standard in afforable map making software for the massess. Even though I was only able to evaluate a prototype demo, there is evidence that the full program will be a very robust and easy to use product.
Yesterday I had the chance to check out MapForge a pretty cool tactical map making software package that is currently on Kickstarter.
