To solve the problem about a limited export size in CC3+, we export the map in pieces using the Rectangular Section PNG export option which allows us to export the map in tiles, where each tile have the same individual export limitation that exporting the whole map has, so by exporting the map in tiles and stitching them together we can arrive at a much larger image than CC3+ can produce directly. I expect many people aren’t familiar with the annual either, so I’ll talk a bit about the steps as well. This gargantuan export is mostly done following the steps in the aforementioned annual, but the sheer size of this export provided some unique challenges.
Fortunately, CC3+ can export individual parts of the maps, something I took full advantage of when I wrote the scripts for the Large Exports annual issue. The exact max size depends on things like the complexity of the map, and I can promise you that this map scores very high on that complexity scale. Once you start going past 10,000 by 10,000 pixels, you start to struggle. Campaign Cartographer 3+ cannot export a map of this size directly, as you all probably know already. So, how did I accomplish this feat? Well, let me start by underlining that this was not a simple one-click task, it did require quite some work and a lot of computer time. I recommend you click the fullscreen button in the toolbar at the bottom of the zoomable image viewer for a much more impressive experience. It should load reasonably quickly, but your physical distance from my server would affect loading times. You can explore this zoomable image yourself by going to the City of Sanctuary map page, and then click the Zoomable Image button located over the map image. The image viewer used for such a zoomable image loads different images depending on your zoom level, ensure that you only load what you need at any one time, making it reasonably easy to explore this gigantic export with reasonable loading times as you zoom or scroll.
Of course, providing such an image for download is useless, since nobody can actually use it, but a far better approach is to provide it as a zoomable image on the atlas website. png file for this map is over 12GB in size, and even though I have a powerful computer, actually opening this source image in an image editor is almost impossible without it crashing. The result is a map 200,000 by 200,000 pixels, or 40 gigapixels in size. So, I decided to try to make a proper high resolution export of this map. This lovely city by master mapper Christina Trani and resident artist Sue Daniel is a visual masterwork of a city map. The City of Sanctuary from the community atlas is certainly one of these places. Some places just deserve to be exported in a nice high-quality export so you can properly examine all the details of the map. I copied old files from my old computer into this folder and those ones show up just fine.Remy Monsen | Novem| cc3plus, large exports This only seems to be happening with new files that I save wit this program.
I cannot figure out how to change the owner or to make this file visible. The system cannot find the file specified."
When I try to change the owner I get the following message, "Unable to set new owner on IcengaleLarge01.JPG. The owner of the "hidden" file is Mock26 (MichikosBed\Mock26). On the file that shows up the owner is listedĪs Administrators (MichikosBed\Administrators). One major difference is the Owner of the file. I compared the properties of the "hidden" file (under Attributes the Hidden radio button is NOT selected) to one that does show up and almost everything is the same. When I right click on the file and click on Share With -> Homegroup (Read/Write) I get the message "Your file could not be shared". In the program and go to save the file I see the previous saved file in the "Save as." window, but it has a Lock Icon on it. I tried saving it in other locations (such as the Desktop) it still does not show up. I am currently using a graphics program (Profantasy's Campaign Cartographer 3) and when I save a file it does not show up in the Profantasy folder.
