Marxist Breakfast.9613:

Does anyone have one of these, suitable for zooming/panning around in an app? I’ve found high res images for Tyria, but no clean WvW maps. The WvW apps I’ve seen use in-game screenshots, which aren’t really ideal.

Thanks!

CosmicChopsticks.2876:

You might have to take screenshots when zoomed in and stitch them together, but then you still have the icons to deal with. Putting your own on would cover them at any zoom level though.

The FoE wvw map is pretty high resolution if it’s still up and running.

FourthVariety.5463:

The stitching method has the downside of the servername printed across it. One cannot totally disable the entire UI overdraw. Plus there is different languages to consider.

Putting the raw maps without any names and icons into a fansite resource kit might not be a bad idea.

You mean something like this?

I found that link on these forums once and bookmarked it, not my creation

Thanks for sharing that, might come in handy for some future tools

I would also like a high resolution WvW map, preferably with the capture points in white rather than the usual red/green/blue. (I think the OP and I have the same idea)

Marxist Breakfast.9613:

That’s perfect, thanks!

EnemyCrusher.7324:

Thanks zeeZ, that helps out a lot! The labels have some typos and the orb pedestals are shown, but I’ll use some photoshop/gimp magic to make things work.

EnemyCrusher.7324:

Actually would it be possible to get the same maps without all of the walls knocked down?

zeeZ.5713:

Those maps are old, and the overlays are mostly there to indicate where stuff is.

AFAIR the walls are just overlays too, hidden somewhere among the billion other textures.

Since the map doesn’t change when the walls go down, I feel like there’s probably a newer version that just has all of the walls in tact. Either such a map or a walls overlay would work fine.

EDIT: I just made a few really high-res rips from the game archive and made a nice, new, updated WvW map for people to use.

To preserve the quality, they are .BMP’s of around 43MB each. That isn’t a terribly big download and you can compress them anyway once you get them.

ENJOY!

Thanks God Of Fissures! I’ll download them when I get home.
