DD EDITOR 2021
🕑 Added 2021-09-06 17:18:50 +0000 UTCHi there,
I'm getting a lot of messages about the Editor, so I thought I’d summarize the major points about the current situation and my plans for the future. First of all, I’m thankful for everyone who’s supporting the development of Editor and for those forwarding bugs and errors to me - these are of tremendous help in order to make Editor the best thing possible.
Unfortunately, the corrections didn’t go at the pace I required because the programmer I worked with couldn’t dedicate enough time to it. So it became obvious that these things need to be changed.
After months of research and prep, I appointed a team of programmers to develop a cooler and more modern version of Editor. As a result of this, a new software is under construction, which will keep all advantages and get rid of all hindrances of its former self.
This software will be free for everyone who purchased a previous edition of the software.
This is not just a vague concept for the future since it’s already 95% finished and beta tests are yet to be performed this week. The final product will be available for everyone at the end of September.
New Editor is being developed in Unity, which is great because it’s a modern system with the latest technology available, thus it will dramatically increase user experience, performance, and stability. Moreover, a special 3D particle system will be implemented that will provide a wide range of variety, and in future updates of the program, it will be possible to use real 3d props.
The software will be available for download and install via Steam. This way updates and DLCs will be easily accessible and our community will be able to share self-made content, effects, and animations. Those who already purchased the latest or a former version of Editor will get an activation key, which can let them download and install New Editor for free.
As for the current version, I’m trying to get the programmer to correct the remaining errors and thus 3.4.5 is still going to be around, but the new features we planned and you recommended will only be available in New Editor.
Thanks for your patience and support - I hope New Editor will live up to its expectations.
The software is already quite promising in its current form, and I’m ecstatic to see how you like it.
Till then, happy gaming and take care!

Hi Sosay, The software is not part of the patronage, you can try out the demo or buy it for 30 USD. The app is in constant development and the future updates are included in the price. All media players can play the videomaps, my software is not necessary, but it offers the advantage of playing videos with quad and hex grids, coloring, fog of war settings, props, tokens and particle effects. https://store.steampowered.com/app/1694430/Dynamic_Dungeons_Editor/

Super exciting news. I'd love to see Real time changeable/ movable/ reveal props. Thank you for working on this, keep the maps coming!
Dynamic Dungeons
Pc and Mac versions are coming, but I plan to make a poll to determine the further updates and new features, including compatibility with different platforms.
Dynamic Dungeons
Yes, it’ll work like this. Fow and props stick to the map, there won’t be resolution limit.
Will I be able to load maps that are larger than the visible screen and pan around exposing the whole map?
Very exciting news
ScooterNH
Outstanding news! Thanks for this update. I enjoy using the current editor for our sessions. Can’t wait to use the new version. I’d love to test as well. Will send mail
vmeb
Unity! Does that mean there will be a Linux build available? (For that matter, Unity can also compile for web, though I'm not sure how well that would work.)
Noel Tiglao
Thank you for this great update
C Mero
Are you able to release an assets pack so we can modify your existing maps? I.e trees , water effects (stream, puddles etc), rocks, mushrooms etc ?
Dynamic Dungeons
No, unfortunately. It’s a completely new software.
C Mero
Will previous DD stories be compatible?

Awesome news! With this version be Mac compatible as well? Thanks!
How do I get a replacement license key? My original license key was lost in a system upgrade. I’ve emailed you about this and received no response. The login page at herokuapp does not recognize my PayPal address either.
