SC Picture Mapper

[Lwek]

Some of you can have fun with this program.

Name: SC Picture Mapper v2.0
File size: About 1MB
Purpose: Turns a 128x128 pixel bmp, jpg, or gif image to the terrain of a 128x128 map.
There was another program called BMP2SCM, but that program required you to manually convert each tile. This program automatically does it.

Things to keep in mind if you don't want to read the FAQ:
You can only convert images that are in the SCMPv2.0 folder.
If you get an error, try closing Staredit.
You must use 128x128 images. If bigger, it'll cut off the image to the right size. If smaller, it will just create empty space to fill in to make a 128x128 map.
Below, I attached the BF logo in a map.

There is no download thread in the UMS anymore.

i cant find where map is

any l33t

 

[Lwek]

Since you have so much space on the left, top, and right side, you could probably turn that map into a melee or UMS map.

Why is this? Jpegs aren't detailed enough. The picture mapper would just make a bunch of squares, unuseable terrain.

You don't need a really detailed picture. Because the minimap in a SC game is only so small, that you can only see so little.
If you want the picture to have 'usuable' terrain, just make the picture smaller than 128x128 pixel. Then, in an editor, turn the excess terrain into something 'usable'.

Well, here's what the FAQ for the program says:

Wow! Did you make all the “Sexy Pics†maps!? Where can I download all these maps?

Well, have made every sexy pic map after #10. The maps “Sexy Pic Part 1†through “Sexy Pic Part 10†were all made by Vangaurd. For convenience, I have put together all the sexy pic maps made by both me on the Scag website. Be sure to check it out at [removed link].

So Vangaurd used your program?

No, Vangaurd used his own program called BMP2SCM to make his sexy pic maps. His program is a little harder to use because you have to open up the map in StarEdit, pay attention to the colors and the coordinates, and many other small intricate details. SCPMv2.0 on the other hand, can be used by the n00biest Mcn00b!

I was responding to the guy that said: "Lmao I guess people should avoid posting pic previews of their in-the-making maps now."

My point was that pic previews cannot be changed into terrain that is even close to the real thing. (Try it yourself...you'd get a map of only edges.)

when i click on the link to download the gay sc pcture mapper v2 it says Forbiddin wtf?

 

[TrongaMonga]

That would probably be because this thread is two and a half years old, mate.

Link's most likely dead by now.
