Title: BMP elevation maps...
Post by: Dux on June 18, 2001, 11:24:00 AM

Hi all,
   I'm making a tactical navigational map (kneeboard-style, for the AH clipboard and for printing) of the current islands terrain. It'll be based on the style of actual aeronautical charts.

   Question is... can I get a BMP elevation map of it, or is there a way to extract something similar from the terrain editor? I'm prepared to trace it out in a drawing program, but if I can save a step or two I will   :) .

I will be more than happy to share the finished map (i'm thinking PDF) if someone will post it on their site.

Thanks in advance.

I'm guessing that you need to get the files from whoever made the terrain.

As far as I know you can't open a .res file.

If there is a program that can open a .res file I would love to know.
