I have just posted my latest creation to WUARCHIVE.WUSTL.EDU. It is a map
creator for tile maps in 320*200*256 color mode 13h (VGA non-tweaked). It
uses 16*16 pixel tiles, up to 200*200 tiles in a map. Each tile may be
assigned a unique value (0-255) representing various physical attributes
(solid, transparent, death, etc...). Sprites may be placed over the map, and
this version supporting up to 500 per map.

	This system is designed for the WGT programming toolkit (Turbo C++),
but anyone who registers will be given information on the file formats so that
they may be used in any language. The WGT Sprite Creator is used to design all
bitmaps. 

	This version of MAP MAKER is a crippleware release (everything except
the SAVE feature works), but for a registration fee of only $20.00, why not
register? Please try it out (sample files included) and watch for sample
programs created with our new release 3.0 toolkit. We have now included full
FLI playing support (animate sprites over FLI while playing, RESIZE FLI to
fit within a certain screen area while playing, etc). Routines for scrolling
maps, and creating powerful games are standard features as well.

Leave me E-mail if you have any questions or comments.
