This thing is still in development? Quite.
I like what you have done

[Ramah]

Hey Fluesopp. Yeah it's still in development when I have the time. Last time I worked on it I was overhauling it completely, changing the way it held the forest patterns but I had to stop for a while so it's stayed in a bugged state with me now unable to recall exactly where I was with it. Hehe.

So it may be some time before I get enough time to unravel where I was before being able to make some actual progress. Ah well, one day.

Didn;t you say you were working on some kind of world generator now or something? Any progress with that?

[Ramah]

Zzzzz @ trying to pick up where you left off after 6+ months break and not knowing WHY you broke a core part of the program when it was obviously intentional that you did so. :S

Anyhoos, update to this coming soon although it will mainly be UI-centric. And bug fixes.



EDIT: Added a screenie of where I am right now. UI is hopefully a little easier now with most of the common functions being readily available. It might be a little more overwhelming when coming to it for the first time but dunno... is it hard to use? It's hard for me to be objective. Seems easy enough to me.

Image shows the faux perspective view that I probably won't enable for the next release as it is still very much a WIP.

man this is getting better and better... love the perspective effect ... now just add some mountains, rivers and a landmass fractal generator, and we'd need nothing else for our maps ... cheers, DJ

looks really great - just make sure you have "tool tips" for the buttons so people know what they do

Hehe. Already sorted that bit so no worries there.

maybe I should try using it for my Cartographia map... can I use my own images?

[Ramah]

If you mean can you use your own images to make your tree brushes then yes you can. It's not the simplest thing in the world to wrap your head around how to make the brushes I guess but if you can make maps digitally then you can make a few trees, masks, shades etc. and name them correctly.

The version I am working on now is stable and mostly debugged. With just a few more fixes and the perspective code, such as it is, disabled then it will be up to update standards. If you are serious about trying it then I'd recommend you hang on for the updated version first.

Cant wait!
