✨ Welcome to Part 3 of the TileMaker DOT tutorial! In this update, we’re moving beyond the basics and diving into professional workflow features designed to save you hours of manual work.
✨ I have added a highly requested Dark Mode for those late-night dev sessions, a powerful Sprite Sheet Importer to quickly slice and ID your assets, and Dynamic Brushes that make painting natural landscapes like forests and rock paths a breeze. I also implemented the new Chunk Selection tool, which allows you to duplicate, move, and even export specific sections of your map between different projects.
✨ Key Updates in this version:
Aesthetic & Comfort: Toggle between Light and Dark mode.
Asset Management: Auto-assign missing IDs and hot-reload assets with F5.
Animation Support: Bring your maps to life with simple frame-based animations.
Pro Painting Tools: Use the Brush tool with adjustable spread for organic placement.
Inter-Project Workflow: Export and Import map "chunks" to reuse your best designs across multiple levels.
