Viewing game maps

[pseudo3d]

I've been trying to develop my own maps for the game for a guide I'm building on my website, mostly adding stuff that Pangea's original "strategy guide" didn't, like finding every ladybug. Unfortunately, in addition to building off of Pangea's original late 1990s maps posted (very low resolution, lots of artifacts) some of the levels are quite difficult to waymark, especially Level 8's expansive last section. Is there a way to view the map files as they would in-game, or being able to adjust the camera to see everything from the top?

@LachlanBWWright made an awesome level editor for some Pangea games: https://lachlanbwwright.github.io/PangeaRSEdit/

Lachlan - There seems to be some interest for Bugdom 1 support in your editor :)

Hello! I've actually started work on Bugdom 1 support, but it's in a very preliminary state at the moment. I've created a repo with some gltf 3d model files for the Bugdom 1 maps here: https://github.com/LachlanBWWright/bugdom1levels , but they have janky fences, missing roofs for indoor levels, and no water. I'd recommend loading them up at https://gltf-viewer.donmccurdy.com/

Haha, I realized I made the exact same post about 18 months ago. Whoops.
