let me know if there's anything you'd like on it... suggestions etc

also if you have input for loot locations those would be helpfull

so far i only have the church, firestation, big office building entry and hotel/pub building around main square

yeah i know... i've seen his but they lack resolution for what i'm trying to do... mine is at least 2 times bigger and will eventually have specific loot locations not just icons for different buildings

the one linked is only 6000 long edge for upload size right now though... still much larger

This'll be amazing when it's finished.

Looking good!

I hope you'll make the icons a bit bigger though, maybe scale with the zoom level?

Nice work nonetheless =)

yeah the icons will be much easier to see when it's zoomed in on... i don't want them to clutter the map itself and make things hard to see

i'm thinking of "highlighting" every door that you can actually open/close too

doesnt this take the 'brutality' out of the game?

That's overkill. You only need half the resolution since your original captures aren't the best of quality... unless you plan to overly it with something better?

it's a WIP... the resolution will be a bit different in the final project

im also not looking to get a nice perfect picture... it's just for mapping so... so long as you can make out the buildings and all the icons will fit without cluttering it to the point of not being able to read it clearly it should be fine

does anyone think it will make a difference if i use the map instead of aerial shots? does anyone PREFER the aerial shots?
