MK Mapmaker

Postby ballth » August 24th, 2008, 10:11 pm

MK mapmaker is a good source for printing out some of your own room tiles. Not like traps or fallen rock or anything, but more like 5x5, 3x5, 3x3 sized rooms. The official website describes it like this:
MK Mapmaker is a DHTML/CGI-based Map Making utility for producing tabletop maps for games such as Mage Knight or HeroQuest. Using MK MapMaker you can interactively design large tiles from individual terrain icons using an intuitive (hopefully) interface and produce a full-size single color image suitable for saving and printing. You need a DHTML-enabled web browser to use MK MapMaker.
It looks easy enough to use, though I'll admit I've never printed out any room tiles using it.
By posting this link, I, in no way intend to infringe upon the rights of the owners of this program, John Keating & John Evans. I simply wish to make it available to the HeroQuesting community. If the owners wish to have the link removed, I'll gladly do so.
Otherwise, mapmakers, enjoy...MK Mapmaker!

Once I get my hands on some new Toner, I'll try printing something on it. I'm curious to know what the print quality is like.
