CartoZed

 

CartoZed is a little tool that can draw 2d topdown images from lotheader/lotpack data. It should work for custom maps as well.

The new version also has the option to export isometric renders of cells.

 

Most recent version:

CartoZed 1.2 (Full) || CartoZed 1.2 (Update)

 

Older versions:

CartoZed 1.1

PZCarto_v1.rar

 

Changelog:

Spoiler

1.2

Fixed bug causing export to iso not to work with certain path values, also memory issue.

1.1

Complete rework

1.0

Initial version

 

Usage:

Spoiler

1.

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

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

 

2.

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)

 

3.

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!

Thanks to all!!!

I'm having some problems using it. When I load the files in C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\ProjectZomboid\media\maps\challengemaps\KnoxCounty I just get a white file. What am I doing wrong. A how to would be very useful in the documentation.

[EnigmaGrey 6064]

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

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.

I try to generate an isometric image, but it stops responding, did I do something wrong?

Yeah the isometric option won't work for me either.

[Blackbeard06 85]

[lordSeaworth 1]

Would love to know if there is a way to fix it cause i would love to generate some isometric ones.
