Dude, you are a one-stop shop for helping DMs. I'm just over a year into this hobby as a Dungeon Master, and your videos have really helped. Thank you!

This is the most useful D&D video I’ve seen in ages.

@clifs7419 3 года назад

I too am a map hoarder, but have found that by naming each map as what it includes helps for a quick search for a specific type of encounter map, i.e map-forest-stream, map-forest-road. Great videos! Keep 'em commin!

@2GoatsInATrenchCoat 3 года назад

I keep mine in separate, nesting folders for each country/city/district/area/biome type and then name them super specific things like "garden behind Agatha's house encounter," and I separate random encounter maps from dungeon maps in their own respective folders. Makes it super easy to keep track of which maps I've already used for very specific things, or different maps that are consistent with the layouts that I've already specified to my players. for example, if my players have already visited Agatha's house but I plan to possibly have them fight something near her house at night in a future session, I know that all maps labeled as "Agatha's house" are consistent with the layout that they've already seen. I tend to give my players maps for every area they're in, not just encounters and dungeons, so I have tons of previously used maps to keep track of. Not trying to teach my grandmother to suck eggs here! I just thought I'd add on to your comment so anyone reading could get additional tips from my comment, too

@lifelonglessson 3 года назад

I've started to run mines of Phandelver for a party of friends that never played a tabletop rpg (we usually play 40k). And I bought both dungeondraft and wonderdraft. And I must say I'm very pleased with dungeondraft as you can create every single encounter map for this specific campaign (surely the option to recreate most) and I use 2mintt (mentioned here) for more assets and tokens, which I use for the party characters and most npcs. The only thing is that I create bigger encounter maps as my friends tend to focus in fighting. I just need to find a place where I can share them for free.

@daviddecesare9832 3 года назад

Don't be afraid to ask some of your players to help draw maps. I play Adventurers League games with a few DMs and I offer up making maps for them with Dungeondraft. Many times the maps in the AL modules are very rough outlines of what the maps should look like so I take those and re-create them with Dungeondraft (the overlay/trace tool helps with that).

@KnightFlesh 3 года назад

I have recently been using Dungeon Scrawl to build out maps. You can get far more detailed maps in it if you import a ton of assets and use the assets to build it out. They look great and import incredibly easy into OwlBear Rodeo. Thanks for the content Nate, keep up the good work buddy

@dukejaywalker5858 3 года назад

Yeah, Dungeon Scrawl is great. It's my goto resource for making dungeon maps for my regular game. Very quick, intuitive, and flexible.

@KnightFlesh 3 года назад

@@dukejaywalker5858 For sure, plus it imports perfectly into the OwlBear Rodeo program so that the grid lines up just right and is pretty seamless. The only downside I have found to Dungeon Scrawl is that if you add too many assets it can overload pretty quick. So export often if your map starts getting huge

@bluelionsage99 3 года назад

He didn't touch on the fact that often you need to size the map for your needs. As in how much screen space it takes up and the scale. (Fantasy Grounds needs the files to be certain sizes W x H to work well, not sure if Owlbear or Roll 20 can autosize). Many maps you try to just grab off the google search result page will be very small or on occasional way too big.

The problem I have with premade maps is that I always write my own campaigns and trying to find something that fits exactly what I have in mind is almost impossible.

I've always played theatre of the mind so honestly I'm still undecided at this point.
