Makingminimap

Making a minimap

To make a minimap in Driftmoon, select the Map Settings tab from the toolbar, then click the Render map to clipboard button. This will create a 1024x1024 bitmap to your clipboard. You can go to any image editing program, and paste the image.

Save the map to the mod\minimaps directory. After that you can click the Load minimap button in the Map Settings tab to select your newly created minimap. Done!
