Marin submitted a new resource:

Marin's Map Exporter - Export all your maps with just a few button presses. Export with or without events.

Since I heard Klein's Map Exporter was broken here and there (and have never successfully used it myself), I decided to write my own version.
You can export any and every map, and you can choose if you want the events on that map to be included in the PNG or not. You also have this option for the player, but it won't show up no matter what if the player isn't on that map.


I may include an option to export with map connections as well later on, but I'm not entirely sure how to go about...

I tried using it in V17.2 (I didn't alter any scripts ... I just added 2 tilesets and a few maps) and got the following error:

Ah I found the issue. Thanks. The script takes the name of the tileset as name pic of the tileset. So I changed the tileset name to the pic name and it works ... thanks

Hi,
I ran the exporter (most recent version) from the debug menu and got this error. It's similar to the one aiyinsi got.
---------------------------
Error
---------------------------
Script '[BitmapCache]' line 392: RuntimeError occurred.

Failed to load the bitmap located at: Graphics/Tilesets/Outside waterfall

from 'BitmapCache' line 392 in `load_bitmap'

from 'PScreen_PauseMenu' line 254 in `pbStartPokemonMenu'
---------------------------
OK

I wouldn't have posted except that I'm using the default "Outside waterfall" tileset for this map. As you might know, the "Outside watefall" tileset uses the same "Outside" graphic as the "Outside" tileset, but has different autotiles and a different entry in the database. This tells me the exporter requires that every tileset in the database have a graphic of the same name.
This is an easy fix. I can just make a copy of the "Outside" graphic named "Outside waterfall".
I thought that it might be an interesting insight, maybe something you'd like to know, and that it might be useful to other people.

are you sure? Capitalisation is also important. And apparently you don't have a Mars.png tileset in your tileset folder.

Just tried using this on V19.1 and getting a few issues

Where tiles are placed on different layers the lower layers are missing. If a tile is placed on layer 2, it doesn't show what's on layer 1, same with layer 3 and below layers

Its overwritten the warp to map debug option

You're probably using RMXP's transparency color option, without actually having transparency in your images. That won't work, as it does not take RMXP's transparency color into account.

If using 1.5 or earlier, edit the script before use!​

I noticed some users trying to use this plugin, and suddenly, the "Warp to Map" command in the debug menu has disappeared!

I'm also replying to the messages quoted above, so here's my advice how to restore the warp command:
  1. Open the script.rb file in a text processing program (e.g. Notepad, Sublime Text, Notepad++, but NOT Microsoft Word).
  2. Search for the line that starts with DebugMenuCommands.register. If you're using e.g. Sublime Text or Notepad++, this is the line number 81.
  3. There is the warp value you're looking for. Replace it with something else (except warp, refreshmap, switches, variables, usepc, togglewallpapers, daycare, relicstone or purifychamber).
  4. Don't change any other values in the file (IMPORTANT!).
Was I helpful here? Thank me later.

EDIT: This was posted before 1.6 was released.
