Maptool 3D

Post by Darkcrystal »

in theory, is it possible to include maps in 3d with maptool?
By an update of the program.

3d has been discussed thoroughly in this forum so if you search around you'll find several topics concerning that. However your post is rather vague. What do you mean with '3d', like e.g. Wolfenstein or did you have something else in mind?

I mean not a plateau from above but instead of drawings to represent houses, and many models 3d house.
A boardgame of 3d figures. Especially video game.

At the moment there is no reasonable way to integrate that kind of functionality into MT. It might be possible to add that into a future version, however since this is not a primary focus of the developers, nothing definite can be said at the moment.

There was some clever work done a long while ago using iso that was pretty impressive, but it was I believe a little awkward in practice and never truly 3D.

I think it would be a terrible thing to MT for 3d. Maybe for version 2. LOL. But far too long has developed.
