Dungeon Map Tiles IV

Expand your adventure map-building toolkit with the fourth set of Dungeon Map Tiles from Studio WyldFurr. A brand new pack of art assets that combines photographic source material with hand-drawn art to create fantastic map tiles for building fantasy dungeons, wizard towers, a monster's lair... whatever you can dream up!

What is a Map Tile?

Each map tile is a bird's eye view of an area of terrain, such as the floor of a cave, an area of grass, or where the floor meets a wall. The map tiles are provided as ready-made art asset elements that can be pieced together on a digital canvas - block by block - to create an adventure map that players can explore. All Studio WyldFurr map tiles have a unique "look'n'feel" as each map tile combines photographic source material with hand-drawn artwork.

Map Tile Scale

The Studio WyldFurr range of digital role-playing tokens and map tiles all use a standard scale of one real-world inch to three on-screen pixels, for a standard roleplaying map scale of 180 pixels to each 5ft square.

But we have also included the art assets scaled down to fit a 50-pixel map square, for those of us who use the smaller 50-pixel square size for building adventure maps.

New Design Method!

In this map tiles pack we have employed far more PNG images than in previous map tile packs. We have done this because PNG images let us employ transparency as an integral part of the map tile design. For example in previous sets the walls and floors were combined, now the walls are separated from the floor in their own image files. This enables far more flexibility in map building. For example, you could create a map using the floor tiles from Dungeon Map Tiles II and the Wall tiles from this pack for a totally different look!

How to use the Map Tiles?

The map tiles have been made as a kind of ready-made art pack that you can simply drag'n'drop onto a digital art canvas to build a map. To do this all you need is a graphics editing program such as Photoshop, Gimp, or another Map Making program that permit you to use pre-created tiles to build maps. We recommend using Gimp, it is free and is a compelling graphic design program for this task.

If you are not sure what to do, our Studio WyldFurr YouTube Channel has tutorial videos showing our artist Tailz building adventure maps in Photoshop, Gimp, Fantasy Grounds, etc.

Art Assets - Raw Image Files Edition

This edition of the Dungeon Map Tiles IV pack is designed for use by Game Masters who love building their own maps and want access to a toolbox of ready-made artistic material rather than the hassle of designing their own material from scratch. The map tiles within this package were designed to act as a library of art assets that a Game Master could simply just drag and drop onto a canvas to form a map.

The package contains a wealth of raw image files in JPG, PNG, and WEBP file formats. These image files form the building blocks which you can assemble into the form of a dungeon, fortress, monster lair, or whatever kind of adventure map structure you desire. Simply start with a blank canvas inside the graphics editing program of your choice. For example, Photoshop, or Gimp. We recommend Gimp as it is free and quite powerful. Then start composing the form of your adventure map by grabbing a map tile from the library, then plonk it onto the canvas right where you want it to go. Keep placing down map tiles, block by block, and your adventure map will take form like a giant jigsaw puzzle.

Using map tiles permits very granular control over the form of your adventure map chambers and passageways, rather than relying on pre-constructed rooms which you cannot change. Once the structure of the map is in place, add the final touches by dressing your map with props and object tokens such as tables, chairs, statues, etc.

Scanned image
These products were created by scanning an original printed edition. Most older books are in scanned image format because original digital layout files never existed or were no longer available from the publisher.

For PDF download editions, each page has been run through Optical Character Recognition (OCR) software to attempt to decipher the printed text. The result of this OCR process is placed invisibly behind the picture of each scanned page, to allow for text searching. However, any text in a given book set on a graphical background or in handwritten fonts would most likely not be picked up by the OCR software, and is therefore not searchable. Also, a few larger books may be resampled to fit into the system, and may not have this searchable text background.

For printed books, we have performed high-resolution scans of an original hardcopy of the book. We essentially digitally re-master the book. Unfortunately, the resulting quality of these books is not as high. It's the problem of making a copy of a copy. The text is fine for reading, but illustration work starts to run dark, pixellating and/or losing shades of grey. Moiré patterns may develop in photos. We mark clearly which print titles come from scanned image books so that you can make an informed purchase decision about the quality of what you will receive.

Original electronic format
These ebooks were created from the original electronic layout files, and therefore are fully text searchable. Also, their file size tends to be smaller than scanned image books. Most newer books are in the original electronic format. Both download and print editions of such books should be high quality.
