[@PaulGuy]

Between the one-time cost and the fact that it's MY map instead of theirs, I think Wonderdraft is by far the better option.

[@zeusporco5570]

So do we have a the ownership of the maps and the IPs of the world we created? So it is not like inkarnate pro, and so do we have the rights to market the maps?

@Lien3383 yes, it is. I did contact the creator a few months ago

Simply with this "raise the elevation of the land" feature, Wonderdraft beats Inkarnate, guys

[@spritelady4669]

That auto generate tool looks really good for people like me who can't draw whatsoever.

[@Pijetlo91]

I used to think there is no way in hell that I can learn to draw, but something got me started and I drew my first map. It wasn't really good but it was a nice edition to my campaign. Then I drew another which was much better but still not quite there. After like 3-4 maps and like 40-50 hrs in total over a couple of months I really started to draw pretty good maps and my players are delighted. Ofc, Nate helped me a lot with his tips and tricks on this channel. But don't be afraid to fail a few times in order to master a skill you wish to obtain :)

[@PantheraLeoKing]

What I do is copy a coastline off of google maps. Pretty easy and it can produce the most realistic coastlines :p

[@davemarx7856]

Everyone _can_ draw... it just requires "years" of practice. Draw a thing every day. I don't care if it's a stick figure or a poop. Once a day and eventually you find your style and flow. Over time, it gets faster and easier.

[@LibraGamesUnlimited]

I learned, on my own, to make some pretty detailed outdoor maps on paint. Just took some practice and figuring things out.

[@cavareenvius7886]

There is no real talent. There is only practice. The only thing in your way is Yourself. You will never be satisfied with your own art. There is not without a reason this saying. You are your own biggest critic. All you need to do is to start with practice and not just stop because you hate your own art.

[@carhemi72]

Another issue with Inkarnate is ownership of content. When you make something with Inkarnate, even if it is your own world, they own your map.

[@WASD20]

Good point.

[@Herf18]

Huge point for me, which is why I won't use it.

[@maxw6004]

you think they'd steal content? sell it? to who?

[@SaucyJack88]

@@maxw6004 they won't steal your content because it isn't even your content. It's THEIR content. THEY own it. And that's the issue. They might not sell your maps (although they could), but the might demand a cut of your profits if you ever use a map made in Inkarnate in any of your commercial works, even if you have a pro-account. They could even keep you from selling any of your maps at all because they own them, so they get to decide what you can and cannot do with your maps. Now personally I think Inkarnate maps always look a bit amateuristic, so I'd never use them for any professional work, but for those who do consider using Inkarnate maps for anything outside of their own personal D&D games, should expect complications.

[@AlexVonT]

that is a huge no for inkarnate.

Another big point, for me, is that Wonderdraft is Downloaded, while Inkarnate is web based only. I'm not a fan of being unable to use a tool without an internet connection, Especially if I was Paying for that tool. Also with Inkarnate, you can only save in the app itself so if anything happens to your data on their end, your out of luck.

@@AIgorith No, you can download a jpg or a png version. I've been doing sort of a partial layout, downloading, and editing the result further in PS, but given the sub price, I think I'd prefer to purchase Wonderdraft, instead, especially if I can create my own icons, and HAVE AN UNDO BUTTON! (That's a huge deal. XD)

[@EpherosAldor]

I have a problem with Inkarnate maps saving with their brush and shovel textures. When I go to edit the map all the land masses and water are gone with only the laid out assets remaining. So I have to keep the window open to edit... even downloading the map comes up as blank (just completely black). In order to keep the work I have to screenshot it. So, hopefully this program works out way better.

[@CoxTH]

Also: Subscription vs one-time payment. So in the long run Wonderdraft is waaaaaaay cheaper.

[@xezazase]

So I bought this after watching the video. Compared to inkarnate, I think this tool was designed more with a DM or GM in mind. It’s way more user friendly in accomplishing tasks related to making a map that needs to be used. The overlay feature is vital for me in that it allows me to do things like zoom up an area of a kingdom map to create a local map from it while preserving scale. The road, river, and coastline tools are massive time savers. I’m almost moved to tears. I do think inkarnate makes a prettier finished product. The symbols in Wonderdraft seem more 2d to me. But I’ll take that. Besides, it looks like it allows you import your own custom stuff, so maybe that can be rectified. I’m thinking a combination approach might even work better. Make the landmass, add roads and rivers in wonderdraft...import into inkarnate for the mountains and trees and stuff.

[@MegaDraconus]

Lester Witherspoon Im a fairly new DM and have created a world of several continents by hand on paper. Seeing this made me wonder if it would be possible to import something hand-drawn and modified from there within Womderdraft? I have never tried a computer generated approach to map making but I am definitely interested after seeing how easy to use this program is. Thoughts?

[@xezazase]

Kyle Evans I’d say it’s worth a try. It’s pretty cheap, so it’s not like it would hurt your wallet that much if you don’t find it useful. I’d prefer to do it all by hand, it’s more about time to me. Using things like Wonderdraft and Inkarnate allows me to have beautiful maps while saving me time. I can use that extra time to flesh out the characters and history of these places, and to work on upcoming plots. Maps are a lot of fun for me...I have to remind myself that it’s just another tool to use to make this story happen. Scan your hand drawn map (or take a photo of it if you’re poor like me with no scanner), import it as the overlay, adjust the grid so the squares (or hexes) line up with the hand drawn map, slide the transparency down so you can see both it and what you’re drawing in Inkarnate, then use the tools in it to sorts trace everything from the original. If you want to make full maps of each area of your continent maps, do the same thing, but zoom up on that area of the original, set the grid/scale appropriately (for me: world = 400 miles per square, region = 100, kingdom = 20, local = 5)

[@michimatsch5862]

@@MegaDraconus It is quite simple actually scan your map as a png file and you can use it in inkarnate. Granted, the software won't recognize the symbols you used and other stuff but you can add new stuff to it. And there is always the brush option I guess.

@@ella4828 I still don't think it comes close to Wonderdraft since it has a paid subscription vs a one time sell, which for many(me included) is really a deal breaker, since many people just make a map once every few times and has more pro options which you would expect from something you pay for, inkarnate is just inferior in many ways and is not worth the money

So in most of the cases it's basically a slimmed down Photohop with some presets. But what I really like is that randomised coastline, river, path form.

I am really gonna get this. I've used hexographer, which was fine. I'm actually drawing my maps by hand right now. Still program though, it's amazing. I'm even considering maybe making maps for people to buy? I'm no Devan Rue, and I'm just a newbie, but I do like making maps.

It looks like the right tool I was looking for, but I would love to try some form of demo first.
