Exporting Game maps (.map format) as png/jpg images
Posted: Wed Jul 03, 2019 7:42 pm
I have just made a fairly jazzy map using the Battle for Wesnoth map editor:
- -
that's a bit of the map . . .
Now, I have NO interest in playing battle for Wesnoth
(nor any of that type of game) at all.
BUT the children who are lining up for my "advanced" class in
LiveCode programming ("advanced" = slightly jazzier than the first 2 weeks)
do like that sort of thing. But I'll be d*mned if they are going to play
Battle for Wesnoth: they can"suffer" and make their own Wesnothy-thing in LiveCode.
I could export a series of screenshots of the game map and stitch them together
(and I could pop out and spend $5000 on super-whizzo-enormous-pixel-packing
monitor so I could take a single screenshot).
BUT . . . it would be just great if there were a simple way to export a .map file
as an image . . .
