Hey, I am trying to use visual fortress to find a magma pipe, it worked fine on one PC that has exactly the same version of DF, but on this PC it doesnt. It is definitely set to reveal it, and I did the mine out/undesignate trick to draw the whole map. It shows everything I can see fine, but the rest is just black space...

Now, I don't know what the problem is, but shouldn't this go on the Visual Fortress thread?  Seems like a better place to go for an answer.

Its a setting when you first load the map. you have to select the "reveal tiles" option.

Khazad reveals hidden features as well, but we have simple button (with a light bulb on it no less) to toggle it on and off, no special process, just extract map and reveal

That was not the problem.

In order for it to be able to reveal anything, the map has to actually be allocated, and this can be done by designating (and subsequently undesignating) the entire bottom layer of the map for digging (designating one tile allocates the 48x48 region tile in which it resides, on all layers above and including the tile designated).
