Frequently asked questions

How do I start using Image2Map after installing it?
Run /image2map preview to see how your image will look before committing anything. Once you're happy with the result, use /image2map create to turn it into an actual map item.
What image formats and sources can I use with Image2Map?
You provide the image as a URL, so any image the game can fetch from that link works. Direct image links (ending in a file extension) are the most reliable; image-hosting pages that wrap the image in HTML usually won't work.
Why does my image look wrong or fail to load?
The most common causes are a broken or indirect URL, an image that's too large to fetch, or a server that blocks the request. Try a direct link to a smaller image first, then scale up once it works.
How big can a single map be, and how do I make larger images?
One map holds a single 128x128 pixel tile, so anything bigger gets split across multiple maps. Use /image2map create to specify the full pixel dimensions, and the mod will divide it into the right number of map tiles.
