Extract strategic map image

Recommended Posts

Does anybody know of a way to extract/get the map image that is generated by the strategic map function? (to an image file obviously)

You mean like pressing F12 to take a screenshot ?

I'm not sure I'm properly understanding your request.

Taking a screenshot can never get the whole map as a picture, just what's shown on screen, i'd like to be able to extract or generate a full map image, like the one generated for the strategic map (or the actual map but strategic look better) the end game being to get pictures to texture a map object. I've resorted to taking screenshots, but having real exports would be awesome.

I have tried and it doesn't work :-(
EDIT: When I tried I wasn't in administrator mode, I will try again ^^

EDIT Bis:I had heard of this procedure somewhere but the correct process wasn't mentioned, now with the link you provided, using the correct procedure works, you need to be in admin, and open the 2d editor! Thanks @TeTeT

Copy EmfToPng.exe file to the same location. This file can be found in Visitor 3 folder in the Arma 3 Tools package. If you don’t have it, it is available on steam as free download (Library -> Tools)

Trouble is I have no such file in my arma 3 tools folder
