Gridmapper Reviews and details

• Exploring Underground Tips?

  Well, there are dedicated mapping tools (generally paid software, such as Grid Cartographer on Steam, which is supposedly very nice for 2D grid maps), but personally, I have found the humble web-based Gridmapper best for Qud-diving purposes. It's fairly simplistic, but offers a multitude of features to mark tiles differently, plenty of hotkeys (you can map entirely without a mouse! Just like playing a roguelike),...

• If drawing dungeon maps on a PC, what programs do you use to do so?

  Sometimes I will also use Gridmapper: https://campaignwiki.org/gridmapper.svg. It can map a few situations that Mipui cannot do, like doors on diagonal walls. It's quirky, but also rapid once you learn the keyboard controls. Source: about 1 year ago

• How important are Artistic Maps

  There are some pretty good online tools out there for homemade maps which lift the look above wobbly pencil on graph paper. Two of my favourites are Gridmapper and Dungeon Scrawl. I'm sure others could suggest more. Source: over 1 year ago

  For in-game dungeon mapping, this tool is super nice. (I learned about it last week on this very sub): Https://campaignwiki.org/gridmapper.svg. Source: about 2 years ago

• Is there a way to let players map the dungeon in Foundry VTT?

• Old school mapping while online

  (a) Gridmapper which has a shared mapping feature but is very keyboard-driven so could be challenging to use for some. (b) Google Sheets, with a few macros for simpler grid-like dungeons or pointcrawl style maps. Source: over 2 years ago

• (long) My OSR experiment in mapping and player skill challenge

  About mapping online: I've been looking at this aspect myself and so far I'm leaning towards one of two ways: (a) (Gridmapper)[https://campaignwiki.org/gridmapper.svg] which has a shared mapping feature but is very keyboard-driven so could be challenging to use or, (b) Google Sheets, which a couple of macros. I'm probably going to go with (b) simply because of players' familiarity with it. That way you can just... Source: over 2 years ago

• West Marches collaborative solo superdungeon starter

  All you need to do is read other journals to get familiar with the dungeon, then post your own play journal, be it link to your own blog or simple comment. Ironsworn + Delve works very well but you can use any system you like. If you want to, use https://campaignwiki.org/gridmapper.svg to produce a map, or just make a map on squared paper - I will amend it to the master dungeon map. Rules for mapmaking are...
