Pokemon DS Map Studio is a tool for creating NDS Pokémon maps, designed to be used alongside SDSME.
It doesn't require 3D modeling knowledge. Rather, it provides a tilemap-like interface that is automatically converted to a 3D model. Please note that this tool DOES NOT allow modification of maps from official games.
As soon as you resave your existing PDSMAP files with this new version, backward compatibility with other PDSMS versions (including Trifindo's vanilla PDSMS) will most likely be lost. This is due to the additional 3D layer, and the new "exportgroup" and "egcenter" keywords in PDSMAP files, necessary to make Export Groups work.

- Pokemon Heart Gold/Soul Silver
