everyone f12, but I don't think that they gonna implement it even to 1.8

It would need some work, new folder for preview, system for downloading it etc... there is few topic about new GUI(even mine) but I don't think that they gonna change menu in future(maybe in 2.0 version... in 2020 :]  )

Awesome idea indeed. It'll have to wait until the new GUI is done though as the current one doesn't have access to any rendering capabilities. Once that's done, it's basically just copy-pasting the minimap code.

From what I'm reading here it sounds like a new GUI is already under construction  [pigtail]

Only soldat 1.6.7 is atm under construction (release today, ehm eh i mean soon)

But Yeah having previews of maps would help a lot. Especially new players would benefit from it. If implemented I wouldn't add them to the map format though because then someone could fake them and they would not be resolution independent.
