[Request] Hi-resolution map photo's

NemeanHavoc · 12-15-2009, 05:24 PM

I was wondering if people have or could make some hi-resolution pictures from 2 maps:

-Operation Archer
-Korengal valley

Since I cant run PR on the highest resolution I cant make them.
Most important is that the buildings are on the map. I want to make a map, like the NATO staff maps. with buildings numbers etc.. I want to test the concept and see if it works better.
I hope someone can help me.

Are you thinking of making a Topo map?

of the minimap man? Because i can run the game on high settings. I'll also edit the resolution on photoshop for ya. Make it around 300 px

do you want a minimap...?

If you want a minimap, get GIMP and look in client.zip/HUD/the only folder in there/inGameMap.dds fro the highest available resolution.

Otherwise, let people know what part of the map you want in-game screens of.

If you plan on making a map from them, whycant you open them in the editor and have a look at the objects that are used?

that or get Paint.net. In my opinion it's better than gimp

I really don't see what you really want, maybe if you explain the purpose of this maps, we can help. You wanna make a tactical map, topological map or what? How big you wanna it?

The topological is up to 1024px, and the full map up to 4096px

Sorry I was away for a while.

I have worked with Nato staff maps, for example we had a map of the Tarin kowt area in Uruzgan province. (Afghanistan).

Every building and compound in the area where giving a specific number.
So if we requested support, or get orders for a specific task everyone knew which building it was.

So if i have a insurgency map, and rework the minimap,
For example the commander can giver orders like: "Squad 1 clear the compounds 1 2 and 3.
this way commanders could work really systematicly.

You get the ID?

edit: Thanks jonny found the Minimaps, sometimes I see mapers who have a very hi-res pic for there map ingame, that was what I was looking for, but this wil work.

humn, interresting but I think the minimap, its too "mini" for you to put numbers in each house.
The further you can go is spliting the keypad in quadrants, but it maybe confussing!

that the greater res you can get for a 2x2km map. hope it helps.

	XKCD forums, in the middle of a perfectly sane conversation: Has anyone really been far even as decided to use even go want to do look more like? Best post ever made! EG: PPSh is made of win and quite possibly stamped sheet metal
