Dawn of Fantasy latest beta patch presents the new Scenario Design Editor. The Dawn of Fantasy editor is a powerful tool that will ship with the game come September 30th, allowing fan designers to craft their own playable scenarios with all the power of the Lua scripting language. This scenario design editor is the very same tool that the developers used to create all of Dawn of Fantasy’s maps, including the 3D World Map, showing that there is no limit to creativity with this incredible utility.

The Dawn of Fantasy Scenario Design Editor enables designers to create their own lush environments and put their imaginations to the test with the ability to craft fully-usable custom walls, stairs, bridges, and towers using the advanced rotation and hover tools, in combination with the editable walk-meshes, to design free-flowing waterfalls and erupting volcanoes, to contrive fully-customizable particle effects, to blend layered terrain paints to fit any need and to create and save design templates that can be loaded into any map.

In addition, the beta now includes a Modding Kit. This kit includes a detailed guide to level design with images to guide the new designer every step of the way, as well as a guide to scripting and cinematography with Lua script samples to teach the new scripter how to set up his or her first triggers and a simple cinematic to create the start of a playable scenario. And finally, the kit will feature a number of sample scenarios that complement the guides, showing advanced level design and scripts in action.
