I shrink the columns and rows to a small grid and use the border-drawing tools to make the walls and stuff. I still can't find a good border style to represent a door, but other than that it works pretty well. I keep a minimized Excel window right next to my DOSBox window and switch happily between the two.CRPG Addicthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01238237377918550322noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6162314467762792782.post-36988335397732277502010-10-12T00:55:55.981-04:002010-10-12T00:55:55.981-04:00Hey, love this blog and need to catch up reading a...Hey, love this blog and need to catch up reading all the back entries you got here but I got one question: What tool do you use to draw those dungeon maps?sascha/hdrshttp://blog.hexagonstar.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6162314467762792782.post-10374692402189430162010-10-11T23:53:49.571-04:002010-10-11T23:53:49.571-04:00Aw, hell, Muckenhoupt.
