Release - Version 1.2 Higher Resolution Maps
Fantasy Planet Painter » Devlog

Version 1.2 Release Notes
Version 1.2 introduces long-awaited improvements to high-resolution map creation. You can now paint at higher resolutions and export maps up to 128K, making them suitable as base maps for GIS workflows.
Map Rendering & View Options
- Render specific map types, including height maps and biome maps
- Toggle grid overlay
- Enable latitude-based shading
UI & Theme Updates
- New default map theme: Lefebvre 2
- Added a status bar to the GUI
- General layout fixes and overall stability improvements
World & Seed Management
Each planet consists of:
- A base map
- A randomization seed
From the File menu, creating a new world generates both a new generalized map and a new seed. You can also randomize only the seed, allowing subtle variations without changing the overall layout. Lower-resolution maps define large-scale features (e.g., continents), while the procedural system fills in finer, sub-continental details.
We hope you enjoy these updates and find them valuable in your creative work!
