Biome Map Editing Tool

I was looking for a different solution to gimp and photoshop for editing biome.png files for 7 days to die...

I decided to write an editor for it and it can also be used to create some of the additional mapping files that KINGGEN can use with the included colour palettes...

Feel free to check it out and don't forget to report any bugs you find here.

Cheers.

Both the stand alone editor and the source code are available at the following url's

thanks :)   I like C and C++ have been a novice hobby programmer for a few years but it's also been many years since I last coded anything :)

wxWidgets was a huge help for the GUI as I did want it to be cross platform - it should compile under linux as well as there are no special windows specific calls being made from my code...

Just use wxWidgets 3.15  for compiling it

Also just to be clear because I did not include a licence file of any sort - the source code for my little editor project is free to use for anyone for any reason consider it public domain.

Hi Scallipus

Thank you very much for this wonderful tool, I have created only 1 biome map, because it is a bit difficult for me when I am painting the biomes and adjusting the zoom in the window that opens when you create a new biome map.
The window does not show you the entire biome map like Gimp, Paint or Photoshop does.
I think it would be a good idea to adjust that, don't you think.
At first I could not run the program due to the lack of a DLL (vcruntime140_1), but that has already been solved, nothing serious.
Regards

Hi, yes zooming the window is something I am working on ;) ,  I am also working on it indicating to the user what the current brush and selected colour are along with the brush parameters

Umm the program uses static linked libraries so I am unsure why it is asking for the vcruntime but it is entirely possible something VS is doing behind the scenes requires it. Glad you sorted it out :)
