How to export a map

For atlas.plan-ops.fr/maps.plan-ops.fr you may create an issue to add a new map or export it your self and then ask for integration of the package.

A layer package is a zip file that can be imported into a GameMapStorage instance / atlas.plan-ops.fr

Note: You need a computer with at least 8 GB of memory (exporter will need up to 2GB to be added to game requirements).

Download Export 2.0 mod on Workshop : https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3243017194
Disable Battleye, Launch Arma3 with CBA_A3, ACE, the Export mod and all additonal mods required for map to export.
Ensures that Arma 3 is full screen with 1920x1080 resolution, Format Auto, and Normal size UI.
Open Eden Editor, place any unit on map, ensures that difficulty is set to veteran (to avoid any marker on map), and launch mission
Open map, disable satellite view / textures, place cursor out of map surface, and hit key Home (Might be ↖, ◤, ⇱, Pos1, or something like that), "Taking screenshots..." should be displayed, and map should be moving
Wait for up to 10 minutes (Altis took 7 minutes on my computer) until "It's done" is displayed
Close game, open %USERPROFILE%\Arma3MapExporter with explorer, all data is ready.
Zip the content of the map directory (the zip should contains index.json, base.png and hires.png)

Use a service such as We Transfer, or a Cloud Storage, if the file is too big for Discord or gitHub.

In the Admin Menu, go to "Layers". On the page click on "Create From Package", select the file and validate.

You will need to edit the layer to make it default if it's the first layer of the map.
