    Project Reality has been added to the list. On the way - WoW, L4D and the other BF2142 maps. Some user interface changes are also on the way.

    This is looking very exciting, this is gonna be great for password nights, were we could all try and implement peoples tactics into the game. This is also good for commanders also. Can you print these out ??

    I hope so too. We might also need abit of help from the community.

    We've contacted Dan Gilbert, from the Atlas mod for WoW and he supplied us with the raw images he has for instances (around 100 maps). Though the images are mostly in Hi-res they do not have the info on them. The question is - would the WoW gamer use these maps or maybe someone knows or has other version of the maps we could use.

    The L4D maps are also abit tricky to find. We don't play the game (yet) so if someone could help us create them it would be great. A tutorial about creating the overhead shots can be found here: developer.valvesoftware.com/wiki/Overview
    Hi-Res, abit more gamma would do the trick

    We also added the option to select different icons (per game). If you have or know where to find icons to your game(s), please let me know.

    @StrykerMachine - Not yet, but it's a good idea, I'll add it to the wish list.

    As Fenian said there is a large base of players in the Project Reality modification for BF2. Those maps are easy to obtain and would get you a lot of users.

    I checked the demo and it looks great, this will definitely come in handy when planning PR scrims.

    Nice work!

    Thanks!

    We've added some more functionality, like map movement with the center mouse button and size selection to the units, icons and their info. Check the wishlist for more.

    The demo version does not support these yet.

    For WoW, check with the guys who created WoWRoster. They have an "image pack" in their download section that includes all the icons from the game.

    You can see the graphics in use here:

    Thanks ScratchMonkey,

    I'll contact rpgoutfitter.com as I think they made the pack.
    Do you know where I can find overhead maps for WotLK?

    You're ahead of me in working with the Atlas people. The only other thing I can suggest is to use an extraction tool on the MPQ data files that come with the game. (I think that's how the icon packs are made.)
