[QUOTE="Osiris, post: 1612223, member: 20572"] [b]Dundjinni & Me[/b] I am not an artist by any stretch of the word. I am also not an architect or engineer, though I had three years of drafting courses. I own and have used a number of mapping software programs, including CC2 and FM7. In the past I have used these various mapping programs to build a considerable number of maps, however I was never pleased with their output. Most were "cartoonish" and inspired chuckles from my players. One required years of working with it and using the subtle manipulations of high-pitched screams and beating of the keyboard to create a semi-decent map. Recently I purchased Dundjinni and my mapping changed. The output I produced was beautiful and took me 10-30 minutes to create each map -- and this with hardly a glance at the manual. Now my maps take my players' breaths away. I use them as: battlemaps, handouts, and GM tactical maps. When my players show up at a location, I present them with a map that instantly gets them to understand the feel of the place. These are not just simple, 2-D representations, but they feel like they are actually there. But my favorite parts of the program are its beautiful rendering capabilities and its extreme ease of use. I have submitted a number of these maps to Dundjinni's website, in its Forums / Maps section under the user name Frost. [/QUOTE]
