Map preview in the editor

Post by BomSite »

In the editor, when you chose 'load map', it would be nice if there was a preview of the map you want to load.
With a lot of maps, you don't know witch one you have, even if you have serious names. :augh:
It is the same as in 'load game' and 'multiplayer -> local game'

Thanks.

This is certainly something that can and will be done in editor2, after gui2 widgets are complete enough

Any comments?

A mockup of the image preview like now is in the 'load game' menu


Every user has his ideas, but when the developers don't say good/bad we don't know if we have to ask again for it?
it would be nice when topics which are not good would be closed...

Friendly regards

My comment: Great idea... but you already *were* answered by a developer.
