ORIGINAL: Warhorse
I have a question though, does anyone have, or know of a map of all the terrain shp files, so that one can find trees, or the walls, etc.? I have the Bible, but that is only the custom terrain, I need something that tells what each of the terrain shp files contain.
Just a thought, but if what you're after is 'compilation' of all the
individual icons, you could use the '
save collage as BMP' button in Fred's
ShpEd program to create such a set. That's how I extracted all the building and custom-terrain pics for the Icon Bible. By selecting the smallest images (zoom-level 1, or Ter
xxz1.shp
*), the
collages for most of the terrain SHPs will 'fit' onto 1 or 2 BMPs (which can then be converted to GIFs or PNGs to save disk-space). If you plan to 'number' the icons, keep in mind that SPWAW labels the first icon in each SHP as
zero, while ShpEd begins with
one.
I just remembered that I have 'inventory' images for several of the terrain-SHPs
not included in the Icon Bible, so its possible I may have what you're looking for. Send a PM and I'll be glad to help out.
*Some of the terrain SHPs also have a
z0 file which contains thumbnail-sized (
very small) pics of the icons. While these allow the entire contents of the SHP to be viewed on a single collage, the displayed images may be
too small to discern in some instances. Attached is the collage for
Ter31z0.shp (palm trees). Note: I cropped the 'empty' areas, and converted the image (from a 1.18
MB BMP to a '
lossless' 4.8
KB GIF), but did
not change its size.
