Maps that match edges?

Any and all chit-chat regarding L3DT.

Maps that match edges?

Postby trollfiddler » Wed May 03, 2006 12:34 pm

Hi,

If I make MapA and then want to make MapB to match up to (say) the eastern edge of MapA, is this possible? Similarly for all the other edges of MapA and so on? So that I can eventually make a very large map by combining them all.

<edit>Um, I mean automatically. Obviously I could hand draw all the maps!</edit>

Thanks very much,

T.

Hi trollfiddler,

This is an oft-requested feature (arguably the most requested feature of 2005). I did some work on this at the end of last year, but I hit a bit of a road-block with some nasty artefacts that I couldn't easily fix. At the time I also had a lot of irons on the fire (v2.3c, v2.3d), so 'map-stitching' got put on the back-burner for a while. I'd like to re-visit this once I've sorted-out v2.4.

Cheers,
Aaron.

OK, thanks for that Aaron. Handy to know it's on the wish list. In the meantime it's hand-editing the edge tiles. No big deal. Easier for us to be doing that individually than you adding it to your current workload I bet :-)

Cheers,
