How can i make a minimap for a mission?

#1 The is huge and doesn't load very fast even on broadband. You might want to make a smaller picture or host it somewhere with more speed.

Anyway,

Have you seen Commander Map resource? Might be what you are looking for.

#2 I take it you want to use the picture as the minimap... and not a re-rendering of the landscape and what not? that's exactly what i need to work on too. If not... then i'd check out the command map resource :)

#3 Yes, i have checked out the Commander Map resource, and the GuiCommanderHud class come from the Commander Map resource,

and i have try to change this class to display a orthorhombic view from overhead, but the terrain block and water displayed wrong.

i think the TerrainRender ignore something when you render a orthorhombic view.

To Thiel:
i used the huge picture because i want a large map and display part of it on a minimap, just like WoW

i am chinese, so that the ip address is in China :)

#4 Sama, i want to render landscape orthorhombic from overhead then take a lot of pics, then assemble all the pictures......

Do you think so :)
