A Map Editor

lom_mapLooking for a coder who fancies writing a Map / Campaign /Scenario Editor for Lords of Midnight and Doomdark’s Revenge… and anything else that might follow.

I’m afraid it’s not a paid gig, nothing more than a bit of respect and possibly some penny whistles and moon pie…

It can be Mac OSX only or preferably cross platform. It can’t be windows only.

If you are interested, give me a shout.

The Compass

Something I was working on tonight…

Work in progress on a new feature in Lords of Midnight. Hold the screen for a second and the compass pops up, then slide left or right to look around and let go.
This is the initial version, I may later release it with full animation, either revolve to the new direction or maybe even revolve as you move your finger. It basically gives you access to the full 360 without multiple presses and drags.

Next set of features…

dragon_redI have identified the new features that will be in the next version.
