MapEdit Application

This application allows a user to create a place - a ruin (below grownd, e.g. a dungeon) or a town (above ground buildings). Descriptions, treasure, and monsters may be added to the maps.

When finished, the user can produce a printable module of the place and/or post it in the marketplace for sale to other users.

The UI for mapedit displays these menu headings and options to the user.
