Tiny Maps O_o
« on: August 18, 2008, 11:59:03 am »
I went into my map and it's freaking tiny! and everytime I go to make it bigger, polyworks just resizes it for some reason :( anybody know why? :p

Hm, maybe you make it tiny? What do you use? PolyWorks or Soldat Map Maker?

If you use PolyWorks (Way better than Soldat Map Maker) it has a gostek that gives you an idea of how big is the map...

if ur map is too small, select the whole map (if ur using polyworks) with the vertex selection tool, then grab the transorm tool, then hold cltr + shift and drag the map to resize it

Black jack, what the hell?
Seriously, just giving the link to polyworks download won't solve every problem, it is getting on my nerves.

On topic:
I always use the way Norbo suggested, I find it quite obvious :|

You really shouldn't zoom in on the map so much. One of the mapper's easiest mistake to make is how big or small the map should be made. 125% zoom in Polyworks is the actual size viewed in-game, and use the gostek for comparision, like Niko suggested.
