I am wanting to add a map from CC3 to my kingdom map snippet.
it will not show me any images to add with the .fcw32 suffix.
will I have to change every thing to a jpeg ?
what is the best way to change these to jpeg opening them and using save as has not worked for me.


Thank you
Dior

Yes, you need to convert your maps to a standard graphic format like JPG or PNG in order to have Realm Works display them.

You say saving as a JPG didn't work. What went wrong?

This is how I do it.

Export to png at 5000 x 5000
Ooen in gimp and resize to no larger than 3000 x 3000 pixels.
Then I use pingu to optimise the image. Just drag the png file onto the pingu application file.
Load the result into RW.

Sorry Pingo not Pingu. Granted the cartoon is more memorable for me
