I've been following a tut on creating a minimap, and have made several attempts at creating a picture including the objects but they aren't showing in the .tga.
The only thing that shows up is the terrain texture on the map, with absolutely no objects. Is this the way it is meant to be?

I have set up the mapbounds region and tried saving as a HighResMap in the image tab, and as a HighResMap in the Terrain tab.
When i tried Save Screenshot in the camera tab it just saves a blank black square .tga file and on showing the save name and location screen, it asks me to open a tga instead of saving one.

If all of this is the way it should be, i have no idea how i'm going to create a minimap with objects......

when saving the screen shot you didnt happen to hit open, because that is how you save it.....

Yeah, i typed in a name i wanted and hit open, which saved it. But when i opened it it was just a plain black square

try under the lighting tab, turning real lighting off

that doesn't change anything.........could it have something to do with the fact that i use 3dAnalyze to run ZE as my graphics card isn't OpenGL compatible?

EDIT: Nevermind, i just got it working after restarting and trying again
