02-08-06, 01:32 AM I know it's 2nd ed stuff, but does anyone remember the "Core Rules" CD-rom that came out back in the 90's? It had a nifty map-making program on it that could render 3D "doom-like" walkthrough maps that I'd like to get ahold of again. It was hard to find a copy of it back then, and I have no idea if there are any in circulation now, but I would dearly like to get ahold of that map editor. Perhaps the WotC folks could take that as a cue and produce a new and improved "Core Rules"-type disc? Us busy DMs are always in the market for something to make our lives easier, and a good map editor sure takes a lot of stress out of the pre-game work.

Anywho, if anyone knows of a good mapping program, could you make some recommendations? (Or are we allowed to mention non-WotC/TSR products here?)

Besides, the Mapper feature was actually a stripped-down version of Campaign Cartographer, developed by ProFantasy Software.

You can use Dundjinni or CC2.

By the by, I've got Dundjinni on my desktop, but the video card died, so I'm trying to find something for this underpowered laptop until then.
