detailed preview of a map

Postby ABSTRACT » 22 Jul 2017, 15:54

Hi guys, i want to make a detailed preview of a map.

Is it possible to generate it from the map data, or do i have to take 2342736452 screenshots and merge them into one picture?

My map editor has option to render maps to image with any resolution. I have somewhere 4k Seton image. I can add there to render icons instead of markers (mex, hydro, spawn)

Just checked, and now its broken :( I will add that in next release, should be tomorrow. It will be just 'File/Render...", select resolution and path and it will render map to image file.

Edit:
Try it now

does it need some minutes to render? because the editor displays a preview, but i cant find a file in the specified path.
it also seems to hang up, so i have to kill the process.

edit: it works now if a save in the same folder. But it is without mex/hydro icons

Yes, rendering and saving file can take some time. 16k x 16k takes for me about 2min for jpg
