As far as I can tell this feature has been "around the corner" and heavily requested for 3 years now? As other comments have mentioned, if the company haven't given up they need to communicate that because this looks bad.

Curious how this might be handled when exporting to VTT:
- Transparencies for each level above ground
- Each level is its own scene
- Other example options not listed
Possibly a selector within the export to choose one of several options supported?

In the interim, while we wait for full support, it'd be really useful if it supported "blank" tiles that essentially exported as transparent.

This would at least let me import the maps into foundry as an overlay, complete with sections that show the map below.

"Slice" at levels. Multi-level buildings, but also things like treetops that can be separated by level and rendered out. VTTs (Foundry) can use these objects as overhead tiles, allowing tokens to move under and over treetops and roofs.

Just got this software and i must say it is fantastic. This however is the one disappointment i have in it. The inability to build multi level buildings and dungeons will definitely limit how much i use this software. As well as the lack of constructing roofs not just from an aesthetics point of view but also to help prevent disclosing areas of a map i would rather keep hidden till my players explore those areas is a let down.

One of the great features of the software is the ability to intuitively generate exquisite maps easily. However, maps quickly lose their appeal when everything is one dimensional. There needs to be the ability to create fantastic maps with multiple stories.

Reply

A

Great piece of software. But this is what stops me from using it currently. Otherwise I could do significantly more maps in it for my VTT. Many maps I want to create have multiple levels -- even just stairs up/down to raised or sunken rooms in a dungeon. I see we aren't getting much info on when this might come to be. Looking forward to the feature when it comes.

Adjustable multi-level support please, not just Floor 1, 2, etc.
A: Make an Option, where i can select the level height.
B: Also an Option to blur under some height, also adjustable, both in intensity and height.

Example A: Under wooden floor, a hidden pit with treasure or trap, and you want to only illustrate that.
Example B: A balcony, where you can see the street down blurred. An indoor balcony at a tavern, where it's blurred downstairs.

Multi-Level with roof would be awesome. Then it would be possible to create 3D scenery from first person view with the map you will use as a battle map later.
A little bit like an integrated FlowScape.

Reply

SetArk

I would ask, if possible to add not just multi-level but a "Foundation" option or buildings.
Certain buildings have an, 1~3 ft foundation height, that allow for exemple for a porch in front of the house, with a little stair of 2~5 steps up.
It would give the ability to give some "Mansion entrance" for exemple feeling, or "The house of the old curmudgeon" where the old man sits on a chair on his porch just screaming at people passing by.

Those are some exemples, but, i think more could be done.

I think, modern day houses call it Crawl Space? But i've heard it beeing called part of the Foundation (The Sims calls it Foundation if i recall right)
I know that in normal medieval times those apparently wasn't a thing.
But well, we're all here for the fantasy aren't?

Basically that little 1~3ft height foundation under a house to make it "above" ground level.

Or should i post this as another topic?

This feature alone would be worth its own update. This and being able to change elevations of some areas. You wouldn't need to add a single additional asset or model with this update. Once you get the multi-level working, I would suggest to release that and worry about roofs for another future update.

This is such a hot item! I want to create the map of a manor with several floors. Frustrating that this is not possible yet.

Mister Music

I'd love if you implemented this!
I think you could achieve this by creating multiple hide-able layers at set heights, then creating a property to each item that assigns a layer to the item. From there, each layer except the ground level, needs a property that determines whether it is visible or not. That could also pass to each item, so if their layer is toggled off, the items assigned to that layer are toggled off.
Also, you would need floor tiles for the different layers. It could be as simple as reusing the way tiles are added to the ground floor, except they would have to have some sort of transparency property, so that glass floors pass light, but wooden ones do not.
From here, you would have to adjust the “room calculation” and lighting to look at the layers above/below, in order to consider open spaces on all three axes, rather than just X/Y like now. If you stored the height of a room in a variable, your room calculation could also use multilayer objects in the auto-generation, if the room is large enough to accommodate them.
I also think it should be up to the creators to ensure supports exist, so you shouldn’t need to include a “needs a support within X spaces” calculation/restriction.
I think it’s a stretch, but if you gave each layer a global ‘height’ property, we could even choose the different heights in the layers, too. For instance, maybe we want a ground floor, then half inch levels to accommodate a town with multiple elevations, or 2 inch layers for large, vaulted buildings like cathedrals.
Also, we would likely need an option to export as one image or as multiple single-layer files, depending on printing or VTT preference.
This would all enable us to build the creations as we see fit, and would put Dungeon Alchemist head-and-shoulders above any other platform!

I'd like to have the ability to stack walls, place higher walls, or size-scale walls so that in the 1st person view you can take images to show players and not reveal what's in the rooms beyond if there are large items. Since some rooms are 40' high and others are only 10', perhaps it makes most sense to stack existing walls. I realize that for the top down view and for current practical playing purposes, a feature like this would be unimportant, but it would make sharing the images with players MUCH better -- especially when 3D views become available to and downloadable to VTTs!

Also, one other thing... I am surprised that you cannot just make a secret door out of any part of a wall by clicking on that wall segment and turning it into a door... maybe the programming is more complex than I understand...

Multi-level would be great, for sure, but just roofs in general. The export to Foundry is good and the top down is amazing but it seems like such a waste to lose the 3d isometric that I'm doing a screenshot of the map (if its outdoors or most of the map can be seen) so the players can see that perspective. But I'd like to put a roof on some buildings to hide the interior.

As I'm using the Levels module in FoundryVTT, some real QOL improvements would be to be able to export directly into PNG (or even better, WEBP) with no background. As it is now, I have to export to get a JPG, load that into Photoshop, cut out the room(s) to get transparent background and then convert to WEBP.

Besides, it seems that the Export function automatically cuts out unused map space and centers the parts being exported. I would like to be able to turn that off, since it can make lightning and perspective differ between levels.

When creating multi-level maps, it can get quite confusing to know which path leads to where. Being able to select a map point, such as a set of ascending stairs, and connecting that to another map point, e.g. the corresponding descending stairs, would make this process much easier; it should also be possible to do this across map files. When doing such, it should also be possible to section off a map area, such that you could get an overlay (for example wireframe) of that area to work with, knowing which parts leads to where, which parts are above what.

Building a 5 story mansion in a single multi level map would be great.

Also would be great for building an underground dungeon that goes up/down levels on the same map or a floating island above the ground level.

Adding the ability to copy entire levels and move them up/down and raising/lowering the elevation to the level above/below.

Forget all the little cosmetic things people are asking for, this feature would be a game changer for what people would be able to create.

Simple visualisation, a spiral staircase you could see the entire map with all levels in one view and then select 'per level' and go up/down the level view to add doors/windows or objects into each level to make them unique, once one level was created you could use the 'copy level' function for an easy and fast creation of the total structure.

Merged with: Ability to draw rooms at different heights

A

currently you can only draw rooms at the base height, which makes it a problem when you want to create, say, a tower on a hill, or a mountaintop castle. having the ability to draw rooms directly on the terrain instead of the grid would be a good setting or even default for non-black parchment maps.

What I am looking for with levels is so I can show an iso 3D view of the 2 story "farmhouse" to my players from the outside and have a roof on it. I can then show the battle maps of the individual floors and export them separately. I cant show the iso view at the moment - especially without them currently seeing the layout inside the building, which I may not want to reveal to start with.

a way to visualize the lower floors if you are showing a top floor that has a smaller surface than the floors beneath.
also, as a second option, a roof tile that hides all the content of the map underneath it, acting as an actual roof in top down view...
if those tiles could come with a transparency slider, a lot of very fancy graphic stuff could be achieved.
