Guide:Map Design

Map design or mapping, is the process of creating a Map for Weissblatt. There are many things to consider when creating a Weissblatt map, so each section of this article will try to provide an overview of what's what and encourage further reading elsewhere - mapping is a broad topic.

Creative map design

Creative map design describes building a map in the creative abstract. This can mean either in terms of visuals as well as game design, but a lot of the skills required for this can be applied outside of Weissblatt.

Technical map design

Technical map design describes the process of realizing your ideas as a playable map. The tool to do so is BlattPlanner - Weissblatt's map editor (based on Ultimate Doom Builder).
