Update: This page is currently being updated with new info, new level editors and links. https://xiiv.over-blog.com/2020/12/read-the-vampire-diaries-the-struggle-pdf.html. To be published soon.
There are a lot of level design editors (map editors) available. From original Half Life and Team Fortress to more current games such as Counter Strike: Global Offensive, Crysis 2, Call of Duty: Modern Warfare and Skyrim.
If you have been following World of Level Design, I primarily focus on level design and environment art for first-person shooter games. But level editors are just tools to get your ideas into players hands. Many of the level editors I list have been used for other game genres. From racing to 2D top down shooters to puzzles and third person action games.
LuigiFollowing is a list of level editors you can download and begin using. Below you will find editors that I either I have used in the past, continue to use or recommend to use.
Make sure to check out all the tutorials within this series listed below:
Level Editors/Game Engines Series:
15 Recommended Level Design Editors
First, let me cover the basics of what a level editor is. If you are familiar with level design, feel free to skip this section.
What is a Level Editor (Map Editor?)
Level editor is software that is used to create levels/maps for a specific game engine and specific game. Level editor allows level designers to create the world that the player will navigate, interact with and play in.
Level designers are able to create new mission types, new worlds, and new content for a game without modifying any code to the game engine itself. Level editors usually come packaged with the game engine as part of the toolset for game designers. Then the level editor is configured for a specific game.
So if you want to create new maps for Left4Dead2 you would need to download the L4D2 Authoring Tools. These mod tools will give you access to the level editor and everything you need to create custom map campaigns to add to the world of L4D2. Same goes for any other level editor (map editor). In order to map for Call of Duty Black Ops, you need to download the SDK toolset with the level editor for Black Ops. You cannot use L4D2 level editor to create maps for Call of Duty: Black Ops or vice versa.
Level editor usually comes bundled with the game engine and its tools, also known as SDK or Software Development Kit (Mod Tools). More on Game Engines and SDK in this tutorial.
Level editors are either shipped with the game or released later as a download. Usually the level editing tools become available as a download after the game is out. Many level editors are never released to the public and are only used in-studio where the game was created.
So if you ever wanted to create new maps, new missions, new worlds to an already existing game, this list will give you options to do so.
