Map viewers
« on: May 25, 2011, 08:17:16 PM »
So this is probably a strange question but I'm working for a print shop right now and I felt like nerding out and printing some game maps on banners to put around the apt.

Are there any emulators or tools that would display either fullsize maps or screen by screens so I don't need to play every inch of each game to make them myself?

I wanted to do some maps from metoird (super and original), some of the megaman games and probably a full overworld from zelda 1 and ALttP.

Ideas?

Sweet, the one JCE posted has sprites I can use to fill in blank spaces on these maps.

Vgmaps has a lot of maps the others don't but they are low resolution and won't print well :( Chrono Trigger overworld maps were some of the ones I really wanted to print.


I'll take pictures when I get them printed
