Post Reply Body Grundle Courageous Warrior 6/30/2008 12:13:53 PM PostID: 235262 I was wondering if it is possible to use an image I have as the background for the mapping module. The only way I can think to do it right now is to create however many tiles out of the image and individually add them. I think that is wasteful as far as time goes and was wondering if it is possible to just overlay the grid on the image?     Grundle Courageous Warrior 6/30/2008 12:22:55 PM PostID: 235263 I just figured it out. If you go to User Options and upload a picture file with the tile dimensions you need, then you can import it as the background tile and it auto-fills the tile grid. i.e. I uploaded a background with a 9x11 dimension and then was able to use that as the background.     BobTHJ Owner of the Market 6/30/2008 12:23:45 PM PostID: 235264 Yes, kinda... Figure out the size of your image in pixels and divide that by thirty. Use those dimensions for the height and width, and upload it as a tile from your User Options page. You will then have a massively sized tile that you can stamp onto a map to use as a background image. A word of caution: The site tends to stall if you upload a tile bigger than about 20 x 20 as behind the scenes it takes your image and breaks it up into 30x30 pixel individual "tiles". A more convenient method of using a background image for a map is on my to-do list.     OldMan Mapkeeper 6/27/2009 2:53:18 PM PostID: 292779 Can a map be associated from another game? And if so what is the information necessary to accomplish in the map box.     OldMan Mapkeeper 6/27/2009 4:05:50 PM PostID: 292785 Nevermind I figured it out. Excellent! Bob you are the man!
