3D Tilemap Plugin for Construct 3

3D Tile Map for Construct 3

Turn your native Tilemap into low-poly 3D streets, walls and trees, right inside your Construct 3 layout.

Paint your level with the normal Tilemap, and 3D Tile Map builds it in 3D. Roads get raised kerbs, sidewalks, cracks, holes and broken paving. Walls, columns, fences, poles and trees come from the same tileset, so one map gives you a whole scene.

Features

• Native Tilemap as the source. Edit your level the way you always do. The addon reads the tile cells, so there is nothing new to learn.
• Low-poly tiles. Every tile stays within a small triangle budget, up to 200 triangles per tile.
• Road set. Asphalt, cracks, holes, chipped corners, sidewalks, kerbs and turns, each in several variants.
• Object set. Low and tall walls, walls with a gap, solid blocks, square and round columns, thin poles, fences, lamp posts, stumps, bushes, and round, square and tall trees.
• Textures per tile type. Pick a texture for asphalt, sidewalk, kerb, turn and the other road types. A default texture covers everything else.
• Texture tiling. Repeat a texture 1x, 1.5x, 2x, 4x or 8x per tile. Set it in the properties or with an event action. Repeating works with TiledBg textures, and a Sprite texture is split into pieces so it repeats too.
• Hide the source Tilemap in game. An optional checkbox, on by default, so only the 3D geometry is visible while the game runs.

What’s included

• The 3D Tile Map addon for Construct 3.
• The tileset atlas (PNG, 576 × 1216 px, 9 columns × 19 rows, 64 × 64 tiles). Import it as the tileset of your Tilemap object.
• A list of tile IDs: ID = row × 9 + column.

Requirements

• Construct 3.

Notes

• The 3D geometry shows in the layout preview and in exported games. The layout editor shows the flat Tilemap art.
• Tile IDs follow the included atlas. If you already have maps made with an older atlas, repaint them.

Made with a lot of testing on trees, walls and road edges. If something breaks, tell me what you were doing, and I will fix it.
