What is Tabletop Mapper?


The Tabletop Mapper (TM) is a simple program to help DungeonMasters control the positions of players (and monsters) during a game session. TM allows you to load any picture (*.jpg, *.bmp) to use as a map, define a grid and control the players positions on the map. You can also define areas to be hidden from players, and which are revealed to them as they walk through the map. Pre-defined areas like circles and rectangles can also be marked to indicate the location of spells or other area effects. If your adventure cannot go on for one game session, you can save all information of the tabletop map (player positions, hidden and marked areas, and map file name) to restore it later.
 

So, Tabletop Mapper is the perfect tool for those who like the well drawn maps found on the Internet (and those who like to draw their own maps), but don't want to print them all (save your printer ink!).

I would like to thank Alexandre Costa for the support, the Dungeon Crafter (www.dungeoncrafter.com) crew for their great software in which the sample map was drawn and Thomas Allin for the scrollbox control used in this software.
