TrenchBroom is a free, cross-platform level editor for Quake-engine based games, supporting brush and entity editing with a high-performance 3D renderer. It supports Quake, Quake 2, Quake 3, Hexen 2, Daikatana, and custom engines via game configurations.

Use cases

  • create maps for Quake
  • edit brush geometry for a Quake-engine game
  • design levels with entities and textures
  • build custom game levels for a retro FPS engine
  • export maps as .obj files
  • configure a custom game engine for level editing

When to choose

  • you are making maps for Quake-engine based games
  • you need robust brush and vertex editing tools
  • you want a free cross-platform level editor with 3D and 2D views

When to avoid

  • you need a level editor for non-Quake engines like Unreal or Unity
  • you need full Quake 3 patch or brush primitive support
  • you want a node-based or scripting-focused level design tool
