My current work...

With some of the changes Riley has made on the dev server regarding how often data is pushed from client to server and server to client, the tileset I created for building dungeons is actually usable now. So here's one of the first encounters in a new dungeon I'm working on: <a href="http://gates-of-elysium.wdfiles.com/local--files/admin%3Afiles/current-campaign-work.png" rel="nofollow">http://gates-of-elysium.wdfiles.com/local--files/admin%3Afiles/current-campaign-work.png</a>
Very cool!
Very cool indeed. Will this be on marketplace, free somewhere or neither? I rather like the look of it.

Thank you kindly. This was just the right timing too, running an introductionary campaign for some new players on Sunday :)
You'll need to find some good textures for the floor. I find it easier to use a dark grey background, lay out the dungeon with the tiles, and then place 3x3 (210px by 210px) floor tiles on top of the dungeon tiles. Finally, group the floor tiles and send them to the back and change the background color to black. If we get a texture painting tool at some point... it'll make using dungeon tiles sooooooo much easier. Also, the tiles were created so that painting down dynamic lighting is easy with snap to grid polygon lines.
One more thing... building a dungeon using tiles like this is time consuming . It is not something you should use for a quick game or a pick up game.
@JonathanTheBlack: Great work! I really appreciated your tips on how to use the tiles (grey background, group floor tiles, etc). &nbsp;It got me to thinking.... &nbsp;do you think you could make a video about how to create a dungeon with these tiles? &nbsp;I really like the finished look of what you're able to create with these tiles... I'm just having trouble seeing how to actually get there from a blank map.
Just grab the different shapes, rotate them to line up and put 'em together. I lay out the walls first and then place the floor tiles on top, group them, and send to back.
How do you organize things in your library to be able to quickly find the shape you're after?
Uh... I don't. I just scroll through until I find it. Once I have enough variety of tiles on the map, it is mostly copy and paste unless I need a special piece for spicing things up.
Looks cool, JonathanTheBlack.&nbsp; Also, the recent&nbsp;changes made on the dev server by the Roll20 Team allowing this must be of impressive importance.
