FM 9 Premade Maps
Hello,
I have some ShadowDark premade maps. I would like to use the VTT tools within Fractal Mapper to map the doors, walls etc. Can I insert the map as a background image since it isn't an fmp file? Right now it is a JPG.
From that, I would trace the map in FM using lines etc and then input the VTT Doors, Lights etc. Is this correct?

Yep, just do "File -> Place" from the menu to place the graphic on the map. Then you can draw on top of it. Once you get the map placed, put it on a layer and mark the layer as unselectable so you don't accidently move it.
btw, for testing I actually did this with the dungeon from The Keep on the Borderlands.
I just watched your video on the new Building tools in Mapper. Will The Keep be getting any updates in the future?
The Keep will get updated to support the new features in the mapper's engine (since The Keep can show maps) next.
