Creating a Minimap with the q3map2-generator

This version of the map compiler can generate minimaps as used by Nexuiz. The specs of the minimap's texture mapping are:

  • Let M be the rectangle of the world's mins/maxs coordinates.
  • If keepaspect is set: let S be the smallest square completely covering M whose center matches the one of M. Otherwise, let S be M.
  • Let S' be S scaled by factor 1/(1-2*border) around the center of S.
  • The "mins" corner of S' corresponds to the top left corner of the image.
  • The "maxs" corner of S' corresponds to the bottom right corner of the image.
