That looks damn interesting.

There is also this map program (Worldographer or Hexographer) in the Kickstarter: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects...project_update

It is the development of this one: http://www.hexographer.com/

I use it because it is fast and easy and actually gets me what I need from a map making program - namely a geographic fixture for my world, ensuring consistency and basis for thinking up cultures and adventures.

I am - was - not aware of Other World Mapper, but I will have a closer look now - thank you for the pointer.

A list of map making software:

Since people often ask for map making software I decided to make a short list here. I am sure there are many other programs out there just as deserving of a mention.

I included some of the above mentioned and added some more.

I have no experience with any of them except the Hexographer series and CC3.

And of course probably the greatest tool of them all: Pen and paper.

Is Dundjinni still around? I thought they had some financial problems and folded?

[Vargr]

Well, they have a homepage, so I assume they are around - I don't know.

Edit:
It seems like the latest update was in 2008 (with a quick look). But the homepage still seems ready to accept money.

Edit-Edit:
HowEVER, on their news page they are talking about the work on version 2.0 and it is posted in 2016.

Last I heard on their forums Dundjinni had been bought out and they were trying to restart but that was several months back and I've not heard anything since.
