Tutorial 1a: Dungeon Mapping with Dungeon Designer - Basics

In this tutorial you will learn how to create a professional-quality dungeon floorplan for use with your favorite fantasy role-playing game, such as D&D. In this section, we create a stone hall, and odd-shaped room and walls and add increadable shadowing effects for extra atmosphere. The tutorial demonstrates the power and ease of Dungeon Designer 3, from Profantasy (www.profantasy.com)

Holy! This would sure help me build-up a previous 2d version of a dungeon I would like to make later, in 3D in Autodesk Maya. Thanks for the tutorial!

Interesting idea. I think CC3 can export lines and poly elements to Autocad DFX format. These should be able to be read by Maya... which MAY (perhaps, I think, maybe) give you a floor / wall framework to start with. I have previously tried to make 3d dungeons with CARRARA 7, but alas I was not very happy with the results, mainly because I do not understand UV mapping very well.

Once of the things I'd love to see is 'isometric' wall symbols. However, drop shadows also work well enough.

@Roger0Czerwonobrody Yeah, don't be a douche and just go to the Pro Fantasy website and buy it.

thanks for the tutorial, I just need to understand why when I click on the default wall, it says: no matching draw tools.

Where am I wrong?

wooooooooooow, i thin that i only can do maps and i see alll this simbols lol

[SailorBarsoom]

You've now got a wall blocking the temple, but I'm guessing you deal with that in the next ep. And speaking of the next ep, I'm off to watch it now.

Thanks for doing these.

I'm having some troubles with the first steps.

Actually I can't proceed over 1:26. I have the same window with the same styles, but if I click on one of them .. Nothing happens. Why is this?

Please, help.

@backspace8908

Only torrents i guess...

On

filestube com

there is only Camapign Cartographer 3 with a crack but no add-ons.

There are Dungeon and City Designer 2 but without a crack or serial.

If anyone has a serial for these i'd be very grateful.

[backspace8908]
