You can also zoom in and out of the grid to help you visualize your map. This helps with planning out the size of your battlefield as each section could be considered as a 5 ft. The grid is separated into square sections that make it easy for you to draw with. You can also insert templates of premade maps made by either you or other members of the community. In this space you’ll place objects, text, and tokens as well as draw your floors and walls. The grid is where you interact with the program to create the map. Here is where you’ll make your battlemap.
I will go into more detail on the asset placement options in the next section of this post.
You have a simple selection tool as well as a rectangular selection for selecting multiple assets at once. Your controls and tools are all pretty self-explanatory. There are two different ways to export your battlemap once you have finished it, but I’ll touch on the details of that a bit later. You also have the option to save, open, and open a new sheet. Unfortunately, there isn’t a way to get new packs while you are in the program. You can also update your mods and asset packs that you’ve added to Dungeon Painter Studio in here. You have complete control over what hotkeys are mapped to what function or tool in the program which is a big plus. For example, if you’ve selected an object you can rotate it or change its size. There is a third section that pops up when you have selected grounds & floors, walls, objects, text, and tokens that allows you to customize the placement of whatever asset you’re working with. In this subsection of the UI you can select different options at the top of the screen and select different tools on the bottom section.
Here you can select options in the menus or select a tool to use. Nothing game-changing, but that’s a good thing in my opinion. Overall it’s a straight-forward and easy-to-use user interface (UI). The picture below shows what Dungeon Painter Studio looks like when you first open it up. With that all out-of-the-way let’s get into the post! User Interface If you’re looking for something along those lines check out my Inkarnate Pro review. While you can also build world maps and city maps with Dungeon Painter Studio I don’t feel like it really work as well as other programs out there. I did not bother much with the free version before purchasing the full version as it was already recommended to me by a few other people. This post is going to focus heavily on the paid version which is $15 on Steam. This is by far one of my favorite solutions for creating detailed battlemaps. I’ve mentioned quite a few times now that I am not very artistic and have sought-out software that helps me in this department. I just frequently use the software and have enjoyed the product a lot. I’m going to preface this post by saying that I’m not affiliated with or Dungeon Painter Studioin any way.
