RPGMapMakerX overview

RPGMapMakerX (was HexMapMaker) is a tool for drawing maps with polygonal grids. In addition to having most of the capabilities of a real painting program (such as lines, ovals, ..., drawing with color and pattern, text, pipettes, etc.), RPGMapMaker has also unique features that greatly simplify the building of polygonal maps: various kinds of grids, ten layers map, interactive maps, terrains editor & organizer, random terrain and maze generator, fractal terrain generator, models, layer scripts, text styles, markers, etc.

Almost the ugliest piece of software I've ever seen ... Take a look on the website, you will get a good idea about the software himself. Sorry, this is the first time I drop a comment for a software and I really had to say that :-(

I wish people would actually mark things in accordance with what the program is CAPABLE of rather than the features the reviewer /understands/. Best campaign mapper I've seen - the graphics are customisable, so the 'ugly' point is flawed. The generation aspects and other in depth features EASILY make this worth the money.

Ridiculous. How can they charge $37 for this? This kind of simple software is free for Windows / Linux. This one is as ugly as Campaign Cartographer. You'd better buy Graphic Converter or simply use AppleWorks.

This is by far the best maping program I have tried. When trying to make maps for any RPG most every program falls short in being able to do what you want it to. This program is very flexable and the support is outstanding. It allows you to create maps with links to move to other maps, like scrolling across a landscape or to move into a city. It is a little complex and does require a little time to get the real hang of things but this time is very well spent. Give it a try, put a little effort into it and you will be amazed at what can be done with it,

1 star? Come on people.. Don't you check a product's site before testing it? If you had you'd see this isnt a simple map drawing package.. You're giving it one star because you couldn't work it out in the few minutes you used to "test" it and lost patience. Then you looked for flaws. RTFM. >.< The target audience is RPers, and often you need a lot of detailed maps. Graphic Converter is not a solution to the problem at all. Typical tabletop RPers are used to reading heavy manuals, so this is no big deal. It's complicated because it's powerful and flexible. This app seems great for what it's intended, and any serious role-player would see it's value - the maps aren't ugly, it lets you edit the graphics! I've only used it for less than an hour and am seriously considering purchase for a campaign world and setting for stories I'm writing. $34 isn't too much for something as specialised as this, what else are you going to use? Nothing else on the mac does this stuff (that I'm aware of!)
