Map Making Startup Template

This is a custom startup template for blender. there are 3 locked viewports that require an addon to retain its locking, so install the addons included first before copying this folder to the bl_app_templates_user folder. there is two levels of grid snapping enabled, blender's built in snap was left on at 0.25 units. it can be disabled, however the other snapping addon will then take priority, you can set snap from the "N key" tabs on the right, under the simple grid stap tab. you can create brushes and sectors with level buddy, also available under the N key tabs. The file is automatically set up with my asset lib, which can be replaced with a different material library. pls be aware as of now, theres no way to export BSP/VMF files (Yet).

Install instructions: copy the included addons to your blender addons folder. for linux users its usually in $HOME/.config/blender/ver.num/scripts/addons/. For windows %appdata%\Blender Foundation\Blender\ver.num\scripts\addons. and mac /Users/$USER/Library/Application Support/Blender/ver.num/scripts/addons/

Clone the repository to the startup folder using https://github.com/jurassicjordan/Map_Making.git, or if you downloaded it from my website, unzip the folder and copy it to the startup folder. for linux users its usually in $HOME/.config/blender/ver.num/scripts/startup/bl_app_templates_user. for windows %appdata%\Blender Foundation\Blender\ver.num\scripts\startup\bl_app_templates_user for mac /Users/$USER/Library/Application Support/Blender/ver.num/scripts/startup/bl_app_templates_user Restart blender and you should then have an option for Map Making in new projects.

Just want everyone to know, I did not create these addons and don't plan to keep them up to date in this repo, check out the original creator's repos for a download of updated and maintained versions of the included addons ERF Level Buddy ERF Grid Snapper link in discord View Lock
