Free Tile Mapping App, Dungeon Crafter tiles fit it.

gameleaper, thanks for posting your mapping app! Now that I know my way around it I can create floor plans really quick. I've add it to my RPG flash drive. Here's one I did on the fly and loaded into Fractal Mapper. Notice the old school Klingon counter I copied into it. Makes encounters/combat easy.

thx bb, I'm glad its of use, and I'm learning off you how to use it too. They look like computer terminals at the top,you can use freehand placement too, and mix small tiles bigtiles and hexes on the same map, I found lots of tiles online, just resized the sheet to correct size and pasted them in (MSpaint has the option to resize to exact dimentions) I learned from you to put the app on the Flash drive too. you also Hex or grid over an image with an empty square or hextile, and you can multiplace ontop of placed tiles, I just found the place command in fractal mapper where you can place a PNG base map in like dawnpatrol.

I like the way its easy to create star-trek bridge will my tiler, it make me seem cool for once.

I'll post my tilesets here when I finish updating.  8)

Id really like the Maps bb, I think them chairs look comfy, and the computers look like they work.

Ok Ive done a quick ship to use with your bridge. Ive included the files below

I thought each deck could have different hextiles with labels on, I did one quick deck, and I included a blank deck

I'm just having a bit of fun with the tiler :)

Now you have me thinking I could create Star Fleet Battles SSDs with this...  :o

[gameleaper]

Yes SSDs would be nice to see, I was thinking of going from room to room on a ship, Its certainly Fun, I like what its done for my gaming .

I found you can set the background image in map setup then save as a fmp file then open in keep, the use icons , I'm learning as I go :)

I have not seem any other PIM for RPGs yet.

I like this border on the Map, its a simple thing but looks good on star trek stuff, but don't mind me, I'm just throwing stuff in

I think its its just clicked what your saying, are you saying your creating new maps as you play an RPG, because all the created Maps overite the older one in Mapit, so that means a link in the Keep will always use the new map as you make it,

Yes just tried it, the Map gets swapped for the new one, but I had to run Mapit outside of Keep(not a problem, just minimised Keep and run Mapit) so the same Map link in the Keep shows each dynamic update of a Map, I thank you bb.

Ive been playing with it, but I found its probably more correct to do a Map then edit it in MSPaint and save as a PNG, the dynamic map update is to big a map I think if your using a small part of it.

[gameleaper]

I played with your great tiles, hope you don't mind its so much fun star-trekin

More tiles are better! Once the set it complete it is amazing how fast you can 'sketch' a floor plan with this.

I'm a really bad game artest, I only get the basics. Your mini computers were great to play with. I like it a lot more seeing someone elses imagination in game art, I seem to enjoy the things I didn't see before, keep em coming bb :)

I think the tiler is a good tool for RPG maps, I was looking at profantasy and some others, but the expence and effort to learn, make me like my tiler better :)

[bbmike]

Actually, those graphics were just quick and dirty. I plan to clean everything up at some point.  :)

[gameleaper]

I would really like to have a star-trek themed version of the tiller. even the quick and dirty as you say are different to anything I would of managed, it takes more than one person to do a good job, and I'm actually thinking star-trek now instead of world of darkness.

Here's the space tile set I created. I'll post the Trek ship one when I finish it. I'm just about to start a Prime Directive GURPS game so this is perfect timing.
