Development:Maps

From Damasca

Overview

Damasca's maps make up the world in which the player is cast into when the game is launched.

Map Editor

The map editor is an application that works very similar to a paint program, with similar tools and layout, including layers support.

Technical

Maps are created using up to 16 separate height maps, including multiple layers just as in an image file created by a modern imaging program such as Photoshop. When saved, they are compressed using 7z, and saved as .dampz files.
