Title: I need a gta sa map.
Post by: Gird3r on February 22, 2009, 07:40:32 pm: However, what i'm requesting has to be very huge.

I saw a overhead 3d picture of the map in the size of 6000 x 6000.

However, I need something 4 times bigger.

In this case. I need a gta sa map in the size of 24000 x 24000 px.

Would be really greatfull if someone could do this for me. :)

I thought the same thing, but I would feel smarter if I'd found it out myself. I guess its for some sort of a taxi-thing or cop-thing map help thing.

Post by: Gird3r on February 23, 2009, 12:58:37 pm: I noticed this is a difficult task.
And yes that areial map thingy is the one I was talking about.

I already have a poster, it's56 cm on all 4 sides, but it's not big enough.
I tried resizing it in gimp to 12000 px, but it ate almost 2 gig ram. And when it was finished drawing and I was about to save it. Bang it crashed and all work was lost.
Yes it's for taxi/finding way around in sa.
The text on my poster is to small, that's why i'm asking.

If the task is to hard, then don't do it. I'm not forcing you. But it would be cool if someone did it. :)

Post by: Iceboy on February 24, 2009, 04:14:15 pm: I would do it if my PC was good enough, but I'm pretty sure its not :(
Doesn't it get really crap quality by resizing it that much?

I wonder how much it would take to save that as a .TIF file :lol:

Post by: Gird3r on February 24, 2009, 06:28:24 pm: I'm also thinking of making a flash animation out of the map. A special Argonath map.

It will contain nearly all important locations and such. Except player owned stuff, because it's impossible to keep track of it all unless I have a dynamic databse wich updates itself with the sa-mp database for player owned stuff (I don't have the skills for it ethier).

But I will be able to make a somewhat interactive flash map showing where certain stuff are.

Like ATM's, Fuel stations, important locations. Wonders and so on.

But I need to learn some stuff to be able to do it. + that I really need a bigger map for it. Twice the size of that 3d map would be splendid I think.

Post by: Iceboy on February 24, 2009, 06:55:57 pm: That would be a huge file though, with the flash. But I like the idea, I wish I had a printed map with all area names on :(
