Here it is, a big block of text all about MAPEDIT.

If you don't have it already, get the mapedit exe from here and place it in your Blood directory.

Here's a fairly easy way to setup MAPEDIT with a shortcut, this is the best way to go about it unless you like using dos commands every time you start mapedit: https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=863927494

Once you get that working, you should change theses settings in "dosboxBloodEditor.conf" and "MAPEDIT.INI"

==== dosboxBloodEditor.conf ====
aspect=true
sensitivity=50
fullscreen=true
fulldouble=false
fullresolution=desktop
windowresolution=2500x1300 (This works for me since my monitor is 2560 x 1440, Yours might be 1920x1080)
==== MAPEDIT.INI ====
HighlightThreshold=x (I made this 70)

These sites have almost everything you need to know about blood mapping.

**** Tips / Advice ****
* Sketch out your maps on graph paper first. Deleting things in build can cause horrible problems with your map, that's why it's better plan out your builds.

* Save your map often with multiple copies! MAPEDIT doesn't have an undo feature so if you trash your map your kinda screwed.

I hope this helped you out anon, build mapping may seem overwhelming at first, but creating levels and decorating them in MAPEDIT is wonderful.
