<br />
The '''minetestmapper''' creates 2D maps of your [[Maps|world]], where one [[Nodes|node]] corresponds to one pixel.<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
=== Usage ===<br />
<br />
''This describes the usage of the C++ minetestmapper. The usage of minetestmapper.py is similar.''<br />
<br />
Make sure there is a <code>colors.txt</code> in the same folder as the mapper. The default one does not support any mods.<br />
You can download VanessaE’s more complete [http://daconcepts.com/vanessa/hobbies/minetest/colors.txt colors.txt], containing support for hundreds of mods.<br />
<br />
On GNU/Linux, open a terminal in the folder the mapper is. Create a map using this command:<br />
./minetest_mapper -i /home/user/.minetest/worlds/my_world/ -o /home/user/map.png<br />
<br />
Having Minetest running in place, you might have to modify the world path.<br />
<br />
<br />
On Windows, '''Shift + Right click''' in the folder the mapper is in, then select '''Open a command window here'''. To create a map, type this command:<br />
minetest_mapper.exe -i "C:\your_path_to_minetest\Minetest\worlds\example\" -o map.png<br />
<br />
<br />
The geometry option allows you to define an area to map. Use it between “./minetestmapper” and the input “-i”.<br />
--geometry -10000:-10000+20000+20000<br />
<br />
Result: A 20.2 MiB file covering a 20,000 × 20,000 area starting in the lower left corner at X=-10,000; Y=-10,000<br />
<br />
<br />
=== Versions ===<br />
<br />
Currently, there are three mappers. '''It is recommended to use the C++ version.'''<br />
<br />
==== minetestmapper.py ====<br />
<br />
A mapper written in Python, very slow. It comes with Minetest and can be found in ./minetest/util/<br />
<br />
==== minetestmapper in C++ ====<br />
<br />
The minetestmapper rewritten with C++. It is much faster. The code can be found on [https://github.com/minetest/minetestmapper GitHub]. <br />
<br />
==== minetestmapper-numpy.py ====<br />
<br />
An improved version of the Python mapper with many additional features, like side view, scaling and fog. It is 8 to 10 times faster than the original minetestmapper.py, but still slower than the C++ version. Information about installation and usage can be found in the [https://forum.minetest.net/viewtopic.php?f=14&t=8730 forum].<br />
