Map Exporting Idea for Nightmare

[Satan]

It would rule all if, once you're done with your edits, you were able to export a map of new areas as a jpg with all the crap on it (lairs, npcs, bosses etc) for printing, since there doesn't seem to be any hope of a path builder for megadumb... just a thought.

use the map:





bring up a room in the room editor

click map

click options and select your options

click reload

press the printscreen button on your keyboard

load up MS Paint

edit --> paste

crop it up, save



sounds like a lot but it takes less then a minute when you're used to it.

that's what i've been doing.. i have howie's screen capture which is fucking hot, configurable to hell ( link (http://www.howiesfunware.com/) ) yeah yeah, looks gay, but it's really nice. and i use photoshop because i can configure file size and dimentions and add whatever non-gay text i want and so on.. but same order he gave, just on step 6 load photoshop instead ;)

i've been using the screen/crop method for a while, but its just so tedious... also using photoshop... works great for taking out those "secret areas" that users should have to find on their own. heh... evil. anyway, it was an idea... thx.
