• Dragon Map Maker (Early Access) UI Colors + Overlay image v0.245 - 28 January 2026

  Steam Early Access Build: V0.245 GUI Colors UpdatedThe GUI has been adjusted so it uses consistent colors throughout. This has changed the overall look of DMM slightly.GUI Color Modes AddedThe GUI has been changed to allow color swapping. This means that I can now add a “Contrast mode” for folks with impaired vision. Currently there are two options to choose from “DMM Default” and “DMM Contrast”.GUI Checkmark color pickerYou can now choose the “Checkmark” or highlight color DMM uses. Just click the toggle to turn the override on and then click the color swatch to choose a new color! You can go back to the original color by turning the override toggle off.Map Image OverlayYou can now project an image file onto the grid view of DMM. Use this for reference when creating a map. You can load .jpg or .png files. (switch between them in the file explorer)The image will only be projected onto t…

• Dragon Map Maker (Early Access) Security Update v0.244 - 3 October 2025

  Steam Early Access Build: V0.244 Unity Security update Quoted from the Unity email:“A security vulnerability was identified that affects games and applications built on Unity versions 2017.1 and later for Android, Windows, Linux, and macOS operating systems. There is no evidence of any exploitation of the vulnerability, nor has there been any impact on users or customers. We have proactively provided fixes that address the vulnerability, and they are already available to all developers. The vulnerability was responsibly reported by the security researcher RyotaK, and we thank him for working with us.”What I’ve done: With this update I’ve built DMM with the latest secured Unity version. Unity also made sure that Steam and Windows Defender have also been updated to block the vulnerability.I haven’t had time to 100% test all features of DMM with this new patched Unity version, it was a min…

• Dragon Map Maker (Early Access) Update v0.243 - 10 September 2025

  Steam Early Access Build: V0.243 Update quick look:Fixed a couple bugs.Added separate door objects to the Objects tool (so you can add open doors).Added a few color variations for Biomes Short Grass and Long Grass.Added Assets: Separated All Door objectsAdded separated door objects to all the Object Tool door themes (most are now Multi object themes). All the relevant door object themes have been separated out into separate door and door frames, so you can add open doors using the Object Tool (rotate and place them how you need). The themes now contain : 1. Door + Door Frame (as before), 2. Door only, 3. Door frame only.Added Assets: Wooden Log Door objectsAdded Wood Log Door themes to the Object Tool (Large and normal sizes) to match the doors available in the Door themes library.Added Assets: Biome color variants for Short Grass and Long GrassAdded color variations for the biomes Shor…

• Dragon Map Maker (Early Access) Update v0.242 - 18 June 2025

  Steam Early Access Build: V0.242 Update quick look: Various sized ships and boats have been added to the Objects Tool. A new floor type has been added to allow edge tools to be used on different levels of ship flooring. Bug Fixes Added Assets: Boats, Ships and nautical stuffAdded to the Object Tool. Each ship level has been designed to match as closely as possible to the underlying grid. Various versions of each ship have been made to show each floor level. Each level is 10 foot tall, this isn’t historically accurate but makes things a bit more consistent when adding assets to boat interiors. There is also a set of pre placed cannons that can be snapped into place using the snapping tool that will fit with each ship. The order of the ship layers goes from top to bottom. Place ships with the snapping set to corner so walls will line up correctly with the grid.Hint: use the water wave obj…

• Steam Early Access Build: V0.241b Hot Fix 🔥 - 14 January 2025

  Change log: Bug: When using different keyboard layouts than US Standard, the key binds would display the keys pressed as a US standard keyboard would be set out, making key binds not show the correct keys for the current keyboard in tooltips (eg AZERTY keyboards). Fixed Bug: Arabic text wasn’t written in cursive and right to left reading order. Fixed (with a lot of pain!)

• Dragon Map Maker (Early Access) Update v0.241 - 12 December 2024

  Steam Early Access Build: V0.241 Update highlights: VTT lighting export 36 Language support for the DMM interface Native OS file browser Stone bridges and Castle wall themes Added Feature: .uvtt Lighting export. The .uvtt file format supports importing of lights into VTTs. I’ve tested this in FoundryVTT and it does work quite well. It however will never look quite as good as a light in 3d and you may need to tweak light settings and light ranges once you’ve imported to the 2d VTT map. I’ve included some controls in DMM that should help you tweak your overall light export values for your VTT. Please keep in mind, light range values may be visually different in 3d vs 2d. A 3d light is a sphere while a 2d light is a circle. So the higher off the floor a 3d light is the smaller its light effect will look vs a 2d VTT where it will light up its whole range value. Added Feature: Full translati…

• Steam Early Access Build: V0.240 - 7 June 2024

Fixed Assets Added: Two new sets of draws in the Objects Tool Assets Added: A set of Standing Mirrors in the Objects Tool Assets Added: A new fancy cabinet in the Objects Tool Assets Added: Two new sets of small tables called Consoles in the Objects Tool Assets Added: A set of small tables in the Objects Tool Assets Added: Two book stands in the Objects Tool Added UI: Added an extra button to the Objects Tool Map Theme List used to Select Themes from Selection. Select an Object or multiple objects while in the "Select All” theme and then click this button. DMM will select the themes in the map theme list according to what objects you have selected. Added UI:…

• Steam Early Access Build: V0.239 - 30 May 2024

  Map Saturation changes and controls: Last major update I added a more modern Terrain Shader. The new Terrain shader renders more realistically (it’s PBR now) and has more features, but it does render colors differently from the old terrain shader. This meant that on some biomes the colors and contrast were more muted and desaturated. After a bit of investigation I found that to get the same overall look as previous versions I’d need to increase the saturation of the camera post processing in DMM. So the result is, overall Saturation has been boosted a small amount to allow me to achieve more fully saturated colors in textures. After making this adjustment I went through all the textures and Biomes in DMM that looked a bit too saturated with the new settings and adjusted them so they match previous versions when rendered. You may need to tweak your adjusted light colors and override colo…

• Steam Early Access Build: V0.238c Hot Fix 🔥 - 7 May 2024

  Change log: Changed: You no longer need to press enter after typing a map name. The name should update as you type and you can click off/out at any time and the map name will be recognised. Press ESC to cancel the input. Bug Fix: png and webP map images were rendering with a blank alpha making them empty. Fixed

• Dragon Map Maker (Early Access) Update v0.238 - 4 May 2024

  Steam Early Access Build: V0.238 Update Highlights: New Terrain/Biome Shader (Glowing (Lava) and metallic textures are now possible) Tweaked rendering to allow High dynamic range textures and effects like lava New Biome textures from floors See inside Multi-Object themes with the Theme Objects Icon window (Objects Tool). New written User manual on the web page How To Map Change log: Unity Version Update: The version of Unity which DMM uses has been updated from 2019 to 2022. Lots of stuff had to be changed and fixed under the hood, either bugs with Unity or systems that work differently in 2022. You shouldn’t notice any difference in basic functionality. It took longer than I wanted but now everything is working and updated (hopefully!) I can start to implement features that were not possible using 2019. Added new Terrain/Biome Shader: A new terrain shader has been added now we’re in Un…

• Dragon Map Maker (Early Access) Update v0.237 - 13 November 2023

  Steam Early Access Build: V0.237 Update Highlights: Holiday decorations, minor bug fixes and wall align toggle for the object Spawn tool (In the object tool). Change log: Bug Fix: Objects spawned in biomes were not being merged into one object for optimisation purposes. (Not sure when this stopped happening). Fixed. UI Change > Object Theme List: Changed the name of the permanent “Object Theme Tool” button list item “No Overide” to “No Theme Object” to make the usage clearer. UI Change > Object Theme List: Changed the name of the permanent “Object Theme Tool” button list item “Empty Space” to “Force Empty Space” to make the usage clearer. UI Fix > Object Tool: Objects that are selected with the “Object Tool” will no longer be highlighted when outside of the “Object Tool”.

• Dragon Map Maker (Early Access) Update v0.236 - 20 October 2023

  Steam Early Access Build: V0.236 Update Highlights: I’ve added a Crop Map Tool, find it in the render panel. It allows you to render out any sized map you want (yay!). It means you don't really need to think about the exact map size until you’ve got a map ready to render. It's much more flexible this way and doesn’t restrict the user. Crops both Rendered map images and .uvtt files. Change log: Bug Fix: Light slider values were not affecting light values when the value was typed into the text box below the sliders. Fixed. Bug Fix: DMM would complain if the Webp option was selected in the .uvtt save options and a larger than 12k render was attempted even if a .uvtt wasn’t being saved. Fixed. Bug Fix: Resizing the map canvas (which clears the undo stack) would delete duplicated objects if they were still contained in the Undo command stack, causing DMM to break. Fixed. Added DPI metadata t…
