Quick question about pk3 files - VNilla - 06-02-2010
I hate to make a whole new thread for just a simple question like this, but I haven't got my IRC client running yet on my new computer, so...
What size should the preview pic for a map be?

doesn't matter, just not too big and landscape

so, my 1440 X 900 screenshot will work just fine?

wildscreen wont look good, better use a 4:3 resolution

There is no need for too big pictures because they all are shown in a box in mapvote... So i think this souldnt be bigger than 512x512. This also saving traffic for the servers.

Gotcha. I'll shrink it down to a 512 square. Thanks.

Well, in the future, they may serve as the background of the xonotic window while the map is loading. Right now, 512^2 is good and high-res though.
