Update 1.1 - Rendering & Compositions


I've just released the update for Isle of Lore 2: Strategy Figures and with it, an update for Color Mapper, too! If you want to re-export the figures from the Strategy Figures pack, the new version of Color Mapper is required for its new feature to create figure compositions. The update also immensely speeds up the rendering time, although the results vary a little bit from the previous version of Color Mapper in regard to semi-transparent pixels. But have a look, the change is only noticeable when drastically zoomed in:

Color Mapper can now create so-called Compositions, which are image files made out of other image files, similar to my Tile Builder software, but simpler and more abstract. In regard to the Strategy Figures pack, it makes the automatic creation of figure groups, like a group of people or a group of orcs, possible:

Because rendering a figure group while still keeping its proper outline intact is a bit tricky, I adapted the rendering procedure to account for that, so that outlines which end at the bottom of the figure work for groups, too. Therefore, compositions won't look like example A, but rather like example B:

The documentation, which is part of the download, was updated accordingly to reflect the changes and explain the new features. Have fun creating! :)

Best regards,
Steven
