First, thanks so much to the creators for developing something like this for free/education! From the tutorial videos it seems to be very intuitive.

I am outlining a book that I plan to write this coming November for NaNoWriMo. The book takes place on a small island off the coast of Taiwan, called Lamei island. I was drawing a map of Lamei, and wanted to model it in 3D. I looked through many other world creating programs, but most were too complicated or expensive. After watching many videos, I finally settled on Platinum Arts Sandbox!

Quick first question:
On the download page here

Is the school edition the main build? Or is it made specifically for students. Any differences in features? (assuming there is a different, main build)

Thanks! Hoping to get to know everyone!

The student edition doesn't have the WatergunWars (FPS) mode installed. For your project, it sounds like the student edition should be OK.
