Discussion Tile making

[gattispilot]

yes. that pad area. Downloading files.
Not sure what is next?

Sorry, It looks you need to choose 18 level in the tool, not 23. You can just cancel the downloading.

 

[gattispilot]

Yes I did I had the coordinates entered wrong for me.

So do I need to do these to get all the pad area?

 

[gattispilot]

Tile is not found?

 

[gattispilot]

Starting again

 

[gattispilot]

Same result. It goes to the end but even though it says task complete. Tile missing. and nothing is downloaded

It looks you didn't change level from 23 to 18.

You should save a map manually as I described starting from here:

Start this. After downloading click on the blue square in the lower left corner (Selection Manager).

Thanks. Now I get these looks like part3

Not sure how I get the new image details to fit the background?

Loaded ImageMagick. Not sure how to use it though?

 

[misha.physics]

Personally I'm using Photoshop to place a downloaded satellite map on top of the background tile.

 

[gattispilot]

I don't have that. But it looks like the background is 512x 512. So scale my sate image to that?

 

[misha.physics]

Yes, image should be square.

 

[gattispilot]

Thanks
so scale to 512 pixel square?

 

[gattispilot]

Thanks. so now we have this. Not sure what to do with it?

I suppose I need to convert to .dds?

 

[gattispilot]

So I can convert to dds. Then put in the texture folder, right? But where?

 

[misha.physics]

Here:

 

[gattispilot]

Thanks. Weird I don't see that folder?
also does it matter what I name it?

 

[gattispilot]

Ok I made the folder and named the file but no change in play. Thanks

 

[misha.physics]

Try zooming in.

 

[gattispilot]

No change. This is what I have. I put a DG at the site

1) The tile name should have 6-digit name too. Add a zero at the beginning.
2) Your tile is visible, but in the wrong place. You use wrong coordinates:
