What is TalePainter?

TalePainter is a map editor for Hytale. You paint terrain, biomes, plants and prefabs on a top-down map and export the result as a Hytale world.

It is a fork of WorldPainter, built by FS-Projects. That means:

  • It is its own program. You don’t need WorldPainter installed and you don’t put anything into WorldPainter’s plugins folder.
  • Most of the interface works like WorldPainter, so WorldPainter tutorials help a lot. Layers follow the same logic but work a bit differently in places.
  • An official WorldPainter plugin version is being worked on together with Captain Chaos, the creator of WorldPainter.
  • Export straight to a Hytale world (singleplayer or server)
  • All Hytale blocks, fluids and biomes in the palettes
  • Hytale prefabs, with prefab sets, block mapping, placement height, random rotation and mirroring
  • Import Minecraft schematics and map their blocks to Hytale blocks
  • Several Only on / Except on conditions at once
  • Search bars in the block and prefab lists
  • Vanilla Hytale terrain beyond the edge of your map (Void, Standard or Elevated)

TalePainter is free. The source code is on GitHub under the GPL-3.0 licence, same as WorldPainter: github.com/meintsot/WorldPainter

TalePainter is still a testing release. Expect rough edges and please report bugs on Discord.
