πŸ’– TMXRASTERIZER(1) πŸ’–

okay bestie, welcome to the tmxrasterizer page β€” section 1 of the manual, she's a command-line girlie and she's literally so good at her job πŸŽ€


✨ NAME ✨

tmxrasterizer β€” renders a tile map to an image πŸ–ΌοΈβœ¨


🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

tmxrasterizer [OPTIONS] [INPUT FILE] [OUTPUT FILE]

πŸ¦‹ DESCRIPTION πŸ¦‹

so basically this app renders maps that were made with the Tiled Map Editor into an image. and why is that iconic? because it's very helpful for making small-scale previews β€” mini-maps, bestie, the little guys, the thumbnail era πŸ’…


πŸ‘‘ OPTIONS πŸ‘‘

  • -h, --help β€” displays the help. she's here to help, she's serving information 🫢
  • -v, --version β€” displays the version. vibe check on which build you're running ✨
  • -s, --scale SIZE β€” the scale of the output image πŸ“
  • -t, --tilesize SIZE β€” the requested size in pixels at which a tile is rendered. heads up: this overrides the --scale option β€” it's giving main character energy, it just takes over πŸ’€
  • --size SIZE β€” the output image fits within a SIZE x SIZE square. and yes, this one overrides both --scale and --tilesize. the way she ate πŸ”₯
  • -a, --anti-aliasing β€” smooth the output image using anti-aliasing. soft edges, soft aesthetic, no crunchy pixels 🌈
  • --ignore-visibility β€” ignore all layer visibility flags in the map file and render all layers in the output. the default behaviour is to omit invisible layers, so this is the "not me ignoring the rules" flag πŸ™ˆ
  • --hide-layer β€” specifies a layer to omit from the output image. you can repeat it to hide multiple layers, no cap. and the layername is case insensitive ✨

Example:

tmxrasterizer --hide-layer collision --hide-layer otherlayer
