So I threw together this map editor this afternoon for zelda. Hopefully it will help expedite some of the map making.

How to use:

Simply click on the bottom row the tile you wish to place. The state tile in the bottom right will tell you which tile you are currently using as a brush. Now click in the location on the map you wish to place the tile. When the map is situated to your liking click "generat". The map dat structure will the be generated and displayed in the text box in the bottom left hand corner. I don't know if it has any usefulness except for myself but thought it would be cool to get some feedback on it.

Note: You may notice there are 3 black tiles. Tile number 3 is for special events(caves, secret areas), tile 7 walkable, and tile 10 is unwalkable. Also, the maps reference these tiles as frame-1, so tile 1 = 0 in map creation.
