Chapter 3: Custom Tile & Object Creator
One of Lidarion Hexmap Studio’s most powerful capabilities is its integrated Asset Workshop. You can take any PNG, JPG, or WebP graphic—whether generated by AI, downloaded from the web, or hand-drawn—and convert it into a standard, gapless hextile or map prop without ever leaving Foundry VTT.
