A couple weeks ago I decided to start a 2d project. So I started work on this 2d map editor. The current version can load and paste tiles to a map screen. It will also allow you to choose how big the map (screen size) should be.

Here is a progress list:

Load Tilesets
Set map size
Select and paste Tiles to map
Save/Load Maps
Import Function
Ability to Scroll Map and Tileset
Set collision tiles

Current Demo:
Check attachment for .exe file.

Currently I'm working on adding the function to Save/Load your maps in the editor. Although, for some reason the write string command doesn't seem to be working properly. If somebody would like to help with that, let me know. Oh, and thanks to Aaron and his WinGui plugin

I'd also like suggestions as to what features you want to see in this. Thanks!

Hey, you can download the second version here:

http://www.mediafire.com/?sharekey=f111d29bf9c0d2154012e8015643d9c8bdf409ae0a0d92f5

It now has the ability to Save/Load maps. The save file also acts as the exported data, but I have yet to write the function to import the map data for your projects. That's next on the list as well as map scrolling, and setting collisions.

By the way, you want to keep your tile images in the same folder as the executable.
