The WxW maps this thing makes are awesome! Thank you so much for taking the ideas onboard and making this amazing program even better! I've made a bunch of WxW maps already!

Also, do I need to update mine, or is the test version you gave me the latest?

Tutorial for Grenade Wars - How to make your own theme:

I spent some time creating 10 themes to be released with the generator, here's how to make your own!

Navigate to the data folder, then the grenadewars folder.

You will see multiple folders, let's call these "themes".

Inside each theme folder are 9 folders:

  • floor - Images for the bottom of the map
  • large - Large objects for the middle of the map
  • medium - Medium objects for the middle of the map
  • roof - Images for the top of the map
  • small - Small objects for the middle of the map
  • wall - Images for the walls of the map
  • wall_l - Images for the left wall of the map specifically
  • wall_r - Images for the right wall of the map specifically
  • waves - More objects for the middle of the map


You can add/remove/edit any of these images!

One cool feature Plutonic added is you will notice a lot of the objects have white backgrounds. The white makes it so that nothing else will spawn in that area whereas black background is transparent and other objects can spawn there.

If you wish to make your own theme, I recommend copying one of the theme folders, pasting it and renaming it with your new theme, then it's a case of replacing all the images.

Once your done, it will show up in the generator automatically!

Browse the folders to get a rough idea of what is what.



Tutorial for Grenade Wars - Other useful information:

Grenade Wars maps can have a width ranging from 1920 to 4480 and a height ranging from 2088 to 4408

There is an objects slider so you can effectively have more or less objects spawn in the map.

If you want to generate a map using a random theme from your themes folder, leave the Parameters on Random. If you with you generate a specific theme, select Manual then choose Style from the drop down menu.

If you like the floor / walls / roof but want to change the objects in the middle select modify and select objects then click generate again.
