as we all know, foundry designer is ok, but it could be better, so i think there needs to be a sand box designer. now this needs to have all of the three levels (as in the basement thing, the normal building area and the sky bubble). and each of those "levels" would obviously need to have a couple building floors, like how foundry designer it has the floor level 1-4. yes? no? tell em what you think.
There's a sketchup thing made on Google Sketchup. You can place realistic-looking objects, turn them to precise angles, and it looks like sandbox.
Holy crap! You didn't post a wall of text! Sarcasm aside, this thread serves no more purposed imo. I believe there's already a thread dedicated to sketch ups. I also think sketchups are pointless for some maps..
Actually sketchouts are almost always useful, except for a few minigame maps. Sketching out a map briefly allows you to make it a lot better when you actually forge it because you see what it can be and what needs to be fixed
