Map creation software advice

Post by xavram »

I've always just used the drawing tools to create my maps in maptools and I've really had no problems with this.

But, with the advent of Isometric maps, this seems like more of a hassle now, since I would have to take the entire library of textures I have and convert them to Isometric textures. A better solution, it seems, would be to create my maps in an outside program, bring them into maptool as a stamp, then use the Flip->Isometric tool to turn them into an Isometric map.

So my question is, any suggestions on what free (key word here!) software is best suited for creating maps? What are people using out there?

Thanks for the advice!
