Title: Dynmap alternate views
Post by: Whitegoodman on February 13, 2019, 04:57:05 PM
I apologize in advance if this was already posted.

I was wondering how hard it would be to add into the dynmap an additional angle on the 3D view??

A lot of my builds I can't see the front of the building with the current view facing north and it's a little upsetting. I guess poor planning on my part but I was hoping in the near future we could add the other views again if it's too much to ask for then no biggie but I like looking at the 3D map makes me feel like I'm playing the old sim city games

It is possible to do this with dynmap however it would require us to render the entire map from this new perspective. Dynmap saves a bunch of images rather than rendering the map in real time. This would take a day or so to do and would take up a lot of disk space, so I would prefer not to do it.

If you like you can use a client side mod to download the chunks in your area and set up a server on your computer with dynmap, just so you can get a snapshot of your area
