Stalker Posted June 7, 2003 Share Posted June 7, 2003 how can I know the coordinates on a specific point on the worldmap in the briefing screen????????? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tyovan4 Posted June 7, 2003 Share Posted June 7, 2003 im not really sure what you're asking mate.. if you want to change it to have that little dot over lets say Derry, in Northern Ireland, you cant just punch in some coordinates. find a map that shows where you want that dot to be. save it into your mod folder. then, in Igor, change the settings and have the world map image be this image of the map you found instead. then, play with the X and Y coordinates until you get it close enough to where you want it. i've done it before, so it can be done. hope this helps mate Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GRIN_Wolfsong Posted June 7, 2003 Share Posted June 7, 2003 The x is the number of pixels from the left side. The y is th number of pixels fom the upper side. Just like all graphics programing usually refers to things. Try opening the map world map you want to use in Photoshop. Mark the area, starting from the top left corner and ending with the location you want to put the marker. Copy the area and create a new picture. Photoshop will automatically set the new size as those of the clip you just took and that is the vaules you want to use. Really simple way to get it right the first time. Only takes about 30 seconds.

tyovan4 Posted June 7, 2003 Share Posted June 7, 2003 hehe, thats a lot easier than my guess and check method wolfsong Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GRIN_Wolfsong Posted June 7, 2003 Share Posted June 7, 2003 And you get the exact location you want as well, as just can adjust the selected area size quick as see where it ends up without starting the game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jack57 Posted June 7, 2003 Share Posted June 7, 2003 I'm not trying to be a smart a**se here, but it is actually even easier than that. If you have the Info window open (linked with the Navigator by default) just place your cursor over the spot you want the co-ord's for and read them values right off the Info tab - it even has them as X and Y.

GRIN_Wolfsong Posted June 8, 2003 Share Posted June 8, 2003 I've tried to find that helper in Photoshop but it's not in the version I have for some reason. Really annoying. So I have to do it like that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GRIN_Wolfsong Posted June 8, 2003 Share Posted June 8, 2003 Now I found it. In that window. I was looking for it to be somewhere in the bottom bar like it is in most other graphic progs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
