Hey Mappsies,

Im currently making a tool for mapping that makes it easier to start a custom map
without having all the boring shape creating.

I want to know if you would like this program, incase i should put effort on it.
I dont want release something that not the experienced mappers would believe to
make mapping in general alot more noobish:

(It will save in OTBM)
Possiblities of adding items, and attributes of items.
Can even make spawns/houses if needed :P

So these features are im planning or already to have:

  • Automatic Terrain Generation
    Generates an whole shape from the begining.
  • Multifloor mountain generation
    The mountain will be like peaks.
  • Brushes, Smoothing, Painting Tools
    The whole map can be edited with brushes.
    Solid brushes will not be affected by the terrain.
    Terrain brushes auto generates things within an specific area.
  • Multiple Biomes and combination of biomes
    There will be an option of combining diffrent types of terrain.
    like snow, desert, swamps, Maybe add an option of custom biome.
    Since the data of the terrain and biome is seperate, you should be
    able to transform existing terrain to another type of biome.
  • Road, River drawer, with random path disturbands
    You can create rivers, roads from point A to B, with the random
    path and width.
  • Biome vegetation generation
    You can assign patching of grass, trees of choise. in a special region.
    You can set more advance properties, Like concentration and density.
  • Scripting possibilities
    You can run own algoritms of how to generate the map, sections

Any features can be requested, I also want your opinions about it.

This is a sample that i generated with the program.

Sample picture (4096x4096)

Hope you enjoy,

(Btw, Water can be removed to only fit the outline also, Just removed the feature to make the map look more clean, Mountain needs to be smoothed, but im just lazy today ;D


Your, Mindrage
 
That actually looks look a wonderful program to get a start for a map; please do release it! I would love to use it to start a map, it would save me alot of time mapping water and even more time deciding if my borders look good or not.

Let me know whats going on with this program, shoot me a PM.
 
I want some sort of mod for RME where if you are using Autoborder for streams/rivers/lakes.
It snaps the 2 borders together.


For example,

Old autoborder:

New autoborder:

(Note; it doesn't add the square unless you go another border length out <height and width>
 
Hmm ,Yes, I could add custom borders, just wondering how it should be done,
Modifying it as a xml file :P

How it shall reack with diffrent biomes.
 
damn thats coolest tool i ever seen :3 u shall release it
