Mapping Tips/Guides / Re: Nintendo 64 Mapping Workshop

« on: April 15, 2010, 01:39:00 am »

I have found an ancient thread started by Lemmy himself spanning 15 pages. If it has not been posted in the previous 5 pages, here it is:
http://www.emutalk.net/showthread.php?s=c3b76b1035bdc901d82029302c853ed1&t=21092

On the first page he has 2 variants of the LemD3D8 plugin. One is 213.8kb and the other is 215.2kb and exports .bmp as well as alpha textures.

*EDIT
You know what?
Nemu08 takes all the fun out of mapping!

Map Requests / Re: Solar Winds 1 - What I have so far

Yeah, I suppose an exact-to-scale map would be a bit much, although it might make a good mural .
How about just the minimap or first level zoom with Sensors at max? That may work.

Map Requests / Solar Winds 1 - What I have so far

« on: March 30, 2010, 07:50:31 pm »

Solar Winds 1 (Dos)
Because the stars are loaded randomly in each sector, this makes it very difficult to do a proper, full size map of the galaxy. However through trial and error I have determined the following measurments:

Each sector is 224 x 224 pixels
The minimap updates 4 times per sector, or every 56 pixels on the main view.
The first zoomed out map moves at 1 pixel per sector, which gives planets, stars and debris a max 56 pixel margin of error.
The Outter Rim varies (because it's shrinking) but I found the lower edge to be around -1200 and the right edge is as far as 4000!
So the map is somewhere around 5900 x 2900 sectors or 1,321,600 x 649,600 pixels!

Does that sound acurate?

Yes, I prefer no enemies because they move around and I really wanted the tiles. I'll see about Tango as I'm there now in my playthrough.

Can I assume Autosticher is free? I did this one by hand in PSP.

You have the tiles? That'd be swell if you could send them to me at drawn2life@shaw.ca .

It's not perfectly sewn together to make each 32 x 32 tile but that will change soon.
