Many thanks to Mugafo (https://github.com/Mugafo/DQB2ChunkEditor) and his work! Without him this fork wouldn't exist. Many many thanks.

And of course to turtle-insect (https://github.com/turtle-insect/DQB2), the one who paved the way in DQB2 technical knowledge.

DQB2 Chunk Editor Plus

This is my first time uploading to GitHub. I am unsure of the standard procedure. This fork adds more functionality to the original program. I assume since it hasn't been updated for years that it will not be. (UPDATE- The original editor has been updated for NET 8.0 support. This one is still at NET 6.0)

For all undocumented blocks, here is a link with all IDs identified. https://www.tumblr.com/sapphire-rb/751291945137078272/all-of-dqb2s-blocks-with-their-ids

Do not try to set unidentified blocks (the ones that make the selection say '-1 not on list') because I don't know if it will work or not.

Items are still unrecognized.

Note: Has not been fully tested yet. ALWAYS BACK UP YOUR SAVE.

Features

• Import and Export buttons for raw hex editing.
• Updated block list with new blocks.
• Changed the way the blocks display in the map for a better visual interface (In-game textures instead of block icons).
• Blocks seem to overflow at index 2048. Added functionality to read and insert blocks with their normal and overflowed indices.
• 'flatten island' option (Turtle's one wasn't working for me and I needed it for testing)
• Magic Pencil tool that will select a whole area in the current layer. By choosing a new block the entire area will be set to that block.
• 'Replace block' tool that will replace every instance of that block in the map for a different one. If there is a selection active with the Pencil it will only affect the selected area.
• New info added: What items do the blocks drop and the hammer requirement of the blocks. 'Used' property added as well (Not accurate)
• Added support for editing Gratitude Points, Time and all 30 Weathers (Not fully tested, gratitude does not work)

Alpha-Temporal

• Filter "used", "unused", "liquids" and "default blocks (non=valid IDs)
• Better block selector
• Primitive mass select tool and mass place tool
• Ability to change chunk count manually (since it sometimes doesn't work?)

Features to add:

• Decorative items.
• Fill bucket mayhaps.
• Automatic backup.
• "Favourite" toolbar for saving and fast selection of blocks
• Sign and salutation station text editor
• Warp editor (if possible)
• Chunk remapping (if possible)
• Minimap to chunk tab (if possible)

External info to add:

• Colored block images are not implemented yet.
• Mapping of all chunks in each island (They are really big.)

Island Chunk Maps

Will be updated with all main islands. There are plans for a "Chunk selector" in the app itself with the save file minimaps, but as of now this will do. Use the green BG one to mask to your own island.

-Isle of Awakening (STGDAT01)

-Furrowfield (STGDAT02)

-Khrumbul-Dun (STGDAT03)

-Moonbrooke (STGDAT04)

-Malhalla (STGDAT05)

-Angler's Isle (STGDAT09)

-Skelkatraz (STGDAT10)

Patch Notes

0.2.0:

• Import and Export buttons for raw hex editing.
• Updated block list with new blocks.
• Changed the way the blocks display in the map for a better visual interface (In-game textures instead of block icons).
• Blocks seem to overflow at index 2048. Added functionality to read and insert blocks with their normal and overflowed indices.

0.2.1:

• Added a 'flatten island' option (Turtle's one wasn't working for me and I needed it for testing)
• Added a Magic Pencil tool that will select a whole area in the current layer. By choosing a new block the entire area will be set to that block.
• Added a 'Replace block' tool that will replace every instance of that block in the map for a different one. If there is a selection active with the Pencil it will only affect the selected area.
• Changed a water block that seemed to have the wrong name (It was too obviously wrong to ignore)
• Changed the way the chunk number is fetched.

0.2.2:

• Completed the whole block list from ID 0 to 2047. Added colors (Still missing images)
• New info added: What items do the blocks drop and the hammer requirement of the blocks. 'Used' property added as well (Not accurate)
• Fixed oversight on the way the chunk number is fetched when importing a file

0.2.3:

• Added placeholder filter option to filter blocks by name (Thank goodness)
• Added support for editing Gratitude Points, Time and Weather (Not fully tested, weather is not documented yet)

0.2.3a:

• Fixed import option (That was broken in 0.2.3)
• Added ability to change chunk count manually (since it sometimes doesn't work?)
• Tile update, some images were added, water and snow cover was updated, and item tiles were also better identified
• Clock displayed wrong max number (12000 instead of 1200)
• Changed 'replace' icon to an in-game one (finally)
• Save option will now display the proper file name, even if the name of the file was something completely different when it was opened.
• Better weather editor, all 30 weather tipes are named and can be chosen from a dropdown. Which weathers work where is untested.

Mayor glitches:

• Gratitude editor is still broken. I'm not sure where the problem is
• For some reason sometimes the blocks will not be recognised despite being in the dropdown? I have no idea why this happens I did not touch that... If this happens just save, close and reopen the program, the file won't be affected by this.
• Filtering seems to cause some chaos in the dropdown thing. Not recommended. Main branch text below.

DQB2 Chunk Editor

Dragon Quest Builders 2 Map Chunk Editor based on the map flattener from https://github.com/turtle-insect/DQB2

Requirements

.NET 6 Runtime

Save Data

Steam save files should be located in C:\Users\<user>\Documents\My Games\DRAGON QUEST BUILDERS II\Steam\<steam id>\SD\

B00, B01, B02 are the corresponding save slots for the data.

STGDAT01.BIN is the Isle of Awakening map data.

Backups are not made when editing, so make sure to keep a backup of the save folders.

Information

Able to edit all chunks and layers. Some issues with unmapped blocks due to duplication. Still need to add color and block shapes as well. I have the ID's but still need to add functionality for it.

"Items" are more difficult than simple blocks and I am still researching the data structure. Looks like there are a lot of different things that go into those, placement direction, shadows, block tile effects.
