Message: <blockquote data-quote="Wurm1234" data-source="post: 1744359" data-attributes="member: 13965">Map Making Programs -- DundjinniCampaign Cartographer Pro is both exceptionally powerful and exceptionally complex.  The newest versions, particularly the Castle pack, make it a much more approachable program, though it remains one that only rewards a great deal of effort.  CC-Pro (newest version) can do any map making/cartographic chore you might have, but it doesn't do it quickly.  At least I can't make it do anything quickly.  It has a loyal user community that makes maps and macros available both at the profantasy site, as well as at the Yahoo Groups site.  Macros make life a lot easier, and it is worth learning how to use them. However, Fluid Software has recently produced a new map making program called Dundjinni, primarily intended to support RPG players.  It is an amazing program.  Quick to learn, one can have a simple map of a building or a small area ready in a couple of hours.  It'll have more detail that CC-Pro ever dreamed of putting on a map, and you can output to battlemaps that are already scaled for miniatures.  Dundjinni has some outstanding users who are regularly adding to the fairly rich set of objects that the program makes available.  Check out the website at <a href="http://www.dundjinni.com" target="_blank">www.dundjinni.com</a>.  While I will keep Fractal Mapper and CC-Pro around, my map-making program of choice will be Dundjinni.  It has a pretty good demo that will let you see how the program works.  Give the tutorial a quick read (won't take too long), and jump in.  Recommended. Good luck.</blockquote>
