ISBN-10: 1592004342 ISBN-13: 978-1592004348This book is for people interested in learning the skills to be a level designer. The book covers the very basics,and moves to some fairly advanced topics.However, because of the enormous amount of level editing tools available to the public, this book will deal with general information, rather than specific information on how to build levels in toolsets such as the UnrealEd editor for Epic’s Unreal game series, or the Warcraft 3editor available with Blizzard’s Real-Time Strategy (RTS) game. This book should be considered a companion guide to help you master the tool of your choice. For more specific information about the mechanics of these tools, there are many Web sites that deal specifically with that subject.
