Would it be possible to add option for extracting base layer at zoom 1 as tile_x_y.png files?
Might be useful when you need to exchange maps with others who use different tools.

EDIT: and perhaps markers to mark villages/caves/etc with an icon with some text (preferably as an overlay of some sorts so it won't modify the tiles)

Yes, all of this is planned to develop. Stay tuned :)

Mapper updated to version 1.6.1

Fix bug with merging layers
Now app sends all exceptions via mail, which may occur during execution.

Currently when merging a session layer onto the base layer, it places the session below the base. This way, already-mapped tiles are never updated with newer ones.
Could it be changed (or at least have an option to be changed) so the session layer merges on top of the base layer instead of below?

Thanks for your feedback :)
This was done to better performance. But it is possible to add additional merging option.
Will be implemented in next version.

Also, if the ability were added to merge session layers together without merging them to the base layer, I would be greatly appreciative.


The tool is extremely useful, though. Keep up the good work. :)

Just use middle mouse button. Hold and drag.

Have been using the 1.6 version for a while with large map sets and it has a definite improvement in dragging/zooming performance. Kudos!
Keep up the good work!
