Ok i have a weird question for yall. I created my first map. woohoo! problem is it seems like when all the way zoomed out, I am not zoomed out much. COuld this be caused by my intial map height? Any ideas? can it be fixed? Please do not reply with a simple yes it can. Please explain as I do not know much about this map creation as of yet. Thanks!

Also as A side note, I tried to print screen for the radar image and print screnen is not working for me. Any ideas??? It is frustrating to not be able to see shroud and stuff. If anyone would like to see my weak attempt at a map i would post it here for yall to check out. Its a 4 player but the size is too small i think for 4 players. I may have to take 2 out.

This is due to the editor setting a low camera height. As pointed out on this thread (http://forums.cncden.com/showthread.php?t=19811) the editor defaults are 120 to 300, where the official maps are 170 to 400 (for Camera Behavior, Min and Max heights, respectively.) The settings are under Edit -> Edit Map Settings ...

All that does is tell Windows to take a screenshot of your screen, but doesn't save it anywhere. You have to use an image editor and save it as a .tga. See the stickied posting about this.

If anyone would like to see my weak attempt at a map i would post it here for yall to check out. Its a 4 player but the size is too small i think for 4 players. I may have to take 2 out.When ya get one done, be sure to post a link to an image of the map so we have an idea of what it looks like. =)
