External Map Editors

What is this about?
External map editors are applications that aid in the creation of Transformice maps, they often provide tools which are not available in the in-game editor to make map creation easier and faster. This thread gives an overview for such editors and provides links to their respective threads.

The feature listings were taken from the respective threads, either 1:1 or in compressed form. If something specific should be added let me (or someone who can edit it in) know.

There is at least one other external map editor (whose source i could not find) and there might very well be others. If you know of any and think they should be included, make a post. I would not mind if someone with executive power on the forums would take this thread over. I think it should be stickied either way (or linked to in a new superthread; there are too many sticky-threads as is, aren't there?)

i think someone (offended maybe?) posted his map editor on reddit

I never knew Baffler made an editor. Anyway, I get the point and its a good idea to bring more attention to the EME. I could stick this topic, but I don't like the first post organisation. I would preffer some short introduction without drama, then links to the editors threads/downloads in order:
Stalky's
..
Enigmice's (MAC-friendly)
...
Baffler's
...
Where ... is short list of cons and pros/features ;p

That introduction was only meant to be temporary to illustrate the point to moderators like yourself. I now updated the first post since you read it with the schema i had in mind.

Well, since I'm suggesting using external map editors to anyone that aks me for some more advanced techniques I will make this thread sticky for now...

I feel I can bnever get used to EME after using the internal one up to now.
However, MapPad is the place to go for circles ^^

I knew there was an online map editor
