Dungeon maps for mini use

[dm4hire]

Anyone know where I can find a decent dungeon map to 1" scale for use with minis perhaps done with Dundjinni or another program? I'm working on a weekend game that will have about 20 encounters in it but don't have a lot of the dungeon tiles to work with.

Bumping in hopes someone might have an idea. Thanks.

Lots of good maps at the old Paizo dungeon magazine resources section, where they have a ton of maps keyed and unkeyed for free. You just need to scale them up to 1" scale and then print and tape together.

paizo.com - Dungeon / Resources / Downloads

To scale them up, you can use a freeware app like Gimp to measure the size of a square on the map and then resize them up. Then print them out. I usually convert them to PDF first because I don't know how to print them right from a graphics program... and I get lost without something telling me where things go. As an example of what you can do:

Thanks, will definitely take a look at them.

You might want to check our website out-we have tons of 2D dungeon and cavern tiles.

I highly recommend fatdragongames and skeletonkeygames and WotC's old line they cancelled with the maps in them.

Maybe someone can help me with this. In particular, it's a Photoshop question.

Let's say i have this map:

Let's say that the actual width is 41 inches by 28 inches, so each square is 1 inch. And inch= 5 feet.

I want to automatically print this sheet into tiles. In other words, is there a way to tell Photoshop to print this map as closely as possible onto 8x10 sheets, all at once, without me having to individually break the image down into pieces?

I'm using CS.

Your printer does the actual tiling, so you'd want to make sure it's decent and actually understands tiling and overlaying. If you have an Acrobat PDF printer queue for your computer, you can have it tile the whole image to 8.5x11 PDF pages, but I can't remember if it will overlap properly or not. Either way, there is no automatic tiling option in Photoshop.

Ah, thanks. Yes, it's a good laser printer, i'll have to experiment with it then.
