Dungeon Editor Progress

[Morgan]

That's a good question. We actually don't have a level editor at all. All levels have been coded in a text editor

Could you share (commented?) sources of any existing level and describe how to connect custom dungeon to LoG?

I think if text editor was nice for your team, it would be nice for majority of modders too

I have no idea how to use LUA, on the bright side I can copy/paste, make small edits to obvious text and can also use Google! (If you can use Google you can do almost anything!)

No! Need graphical editor. D:

I can't wait to see what the community comes up with for new dungeons. I've been meaning to learn Lua for a while, so maybe I'll take a crack at it myself. To the devs: thanks for working to add this feature to an already great game.

The problem is how many of the communitymade dungeons will be worth playing. I already saw it on Littel Big Planet 2 on my PS3. There is a really intuitive and easy to learn editor but many kiddies make many crappy levels.

But I'm also looking forward for the dungeon editor.

No please! I guess I could create a map or dungeon graphically and maybe a very basic script if it is needed, but not necessarily a mod or a Great feature...

Yeah, I'd prefer getting the mapping/scripting instructions to just waiting around for an editor.

Will there be a way to add new monsters? I know it would be really difficult to create the models as modders but it would still be great. Or if not I Would gladly buy DLC for new monsters.

Good question! I believe the average age of players of LoG is higher than LBP2, plus the game is somewhat more hardcore and attracts a more determined audience. So I suspect there will be many worthwhile levels/mods, probably most of them made should be worth a dabble, some of them may equal or even surpass Almost Human's Dungeon!

Fingers crossed!

Yes there will be,

Sorry, I haven't had time to follow the discussion closely but there is no problem if you want to swap a monster or wallset texture with another texture created by you.

Here's a pretty neat article on Lua, at least is looks like it's neat, I am a complete beginner:
