Use browse to select a mapdata folder containing lotheader and lotpack files.

Optionally select a different theme to render the 2D map with.

Hit draw, this will render the map and display a preview version on screen (note the preview is a low resolution render, the actual output will be high res)

Optionally you can make a selection of cells, if you define a selection this will affect the Save/Export options below.

 

4.

'Save as 2D PNG' allows to save the map render fully or a selection of it.

 

5.

'Export isometric' allows to save iso metric renders, it will create a file for each cell (300x300) tiles. Note that the selection tool in the program also selects on a cell basis.

Also note that this is not very fast, rendering the entire map may take a while. And will consume a fair amount of memory/diskspace as well.

Mate, we get so many players on our Redboid server asking if there is a map. We would certainly add this. You should definitely continue this, using your original art or the new tool images. Either would be great!

Yep, currently it doesn't seem to play well with the non-default maps. :D

Isn't that the default map? Then where is it?

EDIT: I found the right files in the Muldraugh, KY folder instead of challengemaps. Whoops.
