.??? -> .w3m

Hey, i dont no if this is even possible, but a converter that converts, tga's/jpg's/bmp's to w3m, would be very helpful. also a .pud -> .w3m would be great, but i think someone is working on that.

Thx.

Uh, why would you want to convert 2d jpegs into 3d Warcraft 3 Maps?

Well Heres the best I can do there is a TGA->PUD Converter, and zepir has made a PUD->W3m converter. So beg him to help you.

i didnt see either of those proggies in the downloads section here. where can i get them? they would work, since it would be the same, just more steps, and thats ok.

PUD -> W3M is working but not finished. That's why you can't see it online. I'm actually helping the Rise Of Krill project to release it as soon as we can. So I'm not currently working on my editor.
But Samsuffy did new doodads for me that will be used for replacing PUD rocks. Right now, I replaced rocks with cliffs which doesn't look as good as it could be.

If you really really need 1 or 2 pud to be converted, come on IRC (irc.digital-intensity.net:6667 #wc3campaigns) and ask me the convertion. If I'm not too busy and if there's not too many people asking that, then I'll do it.

Ok, I think I'm confused. What's a PUD, and why would you want to use it as a map?

a .PUD is the war2 version of a map. also, Zepir, do you no where i can get a .TGA->.PUD converter? i heard there is one. and it would help a lot, since then once ur pud to w3m is done its basically a tga to w3m converter. which would help.

Dunno where you can find that. I also plan to import images as ground map but I haven't really started to think about what I'll do with an image and which format I'll use.

ok, well, if u do get that working tell me, and when you release the .PUD->.W3M converter, tell me also, because it will be a great help.
