Mini map form Bitmap and Vision cone.
Hello,
I'd like to make a minimap for one of my project. I managed to do one with some tutorials i've found but they involve another cam on top pointing at my scene. It's for a web project so i'd like to do a minimap form a bitmap image (png, jpg, etc...) to avoid wasting ressources on a second camera poiting at my scene.
And over this i'd like to add a red dot to symbolize the player and a cone to represent his vision... And i've no knowledge in any programmation language....
Do you know a way to do this?
Thanks.

Hi there. We exactly implemented this behaviour in the KGFMapSystem. Instead of rendering the scene a second time by using the minimap camera, we are taking a photo of the scene/terrain. The minimap camera is only rendering the photo so you have top performance.
The KGFMapSystem has 1000 other cool features like saveable fog of war, but just have a look for yourself.
