At first thanks, mapper, your work is great and really useful. Some thing about landmark - then i firstly saw your program i think than ou it's cool for history analysis stories and so i use it with paint(to make somethink like primitive landmarks  - like this (fool txt with story here http://vk.com/topic-2606586_31360079?post=14858) and it's really look cool(probadly not such cool as (made with terragen) it this moment, but really simplier to make.
And so  i really glad to see your utilite updated.
Secondly... that you think about making page of this project on github or somewhere else? I really think that a lot of other DF players can join to you and help your made utilite better. For example i such as Dabbling unity programmer(V Rusry) can try make sun/moon light system to make screenshot more beutiful and so on.
Finally some ideas.
1.Question to Japa and idea at the same point
 How do you think, is it real to export positions of all armies on working map with DFHack and use them in this utilite to make it realtime?
2. It will be intresting to make somethink like politic map.
3.And of course... can you make script that using legends.xml and exporting landmarks from it? probadly Blocky Map can be somethik like WorldViever 3d?
P.S. Pleaaaaaaseeee built it for android....

Ok I am back.

After some testing it seems that the water and icons are visible...but everything else is still pitch black.

After pressing draw on all sample maps both the chunks and all the other messages appear normally.No error message or something like that.

Running on Windows 7 Ultimate,32-bit, 2,70GHz and 2GB RAM.

This looks sweet.  I've always got a thing for visualizers...

Edit: It's 1.30AM and I'm converting entire worlds into glorious 3D.  Consider me addicted, and a screenshot as a thanks.

I love the idea of this mod and I simply adore the pictures I can find, but I can't for the life of me figure out how to properly export my worlds and use them through the Blocky World App. I can't find any tutorials, either, since it's somewhat new. I'm lost!

Can anybody help this lowly pleb =<? All I've done so far is export through legends and turn what came out into a .png with gimp, but that didn't seem to work. Is there a correct export option to choose? And how exactly does adding landmarks work?

EDIT: Found the right exports for color and height after actually examining the samples, but they only worked once I put my .pngs into the images folder instead of the User Generated Content folder. No matter what I did to the latter folder, it would not accept it for some ungodly reason. Alls I need is the landmark stuff.

Odd. Maybe there's an issue with spaces in filenames.

Thank you to lethosor for his ideas about landmarks

It was Ragundo that suggested that, actually.

Question:Is there any way to visualize a fortress with this tool?

I'm pretty new to visualizers, and this seems amazing.

Nope, just world maps exported from legends mode.  For fortresses, check out Armok Vision.

Hey man,

Do you have plans of posting the source code or project for the app. As i would really like to take a look at how you do things. Also it might allow others to add features.

Thanks,

Unfortunately Mapper hasn't logged in since May, and never responded to my request to publish source code.  I'm pretty sure that means this project is dead for good.
