Can I change the size of a downloaded regions config map?

[DustyLee23 6]

If anyone could answer I would greatly appreciate it. Id like to increase the size of a custom downloaded map that is only 3.5 by 3.5 large city tiles in size but Im unsure whether it will render correctly. Maybe this is something the teraformer or mapper would be good for? Ive searched around the site but could dig anything up on this topic. Thank you in advance for any advice!

Well if the region comes with a grayscale jpeg you could try to edit and overscale it with a good image editor, but you have to set the right number of pixels, IIRC it goes like this: size in km x 64+1= number of pixels

 

If the file is .SC4M then I don't think it's possible to change the size, but I might be wrong...

Thanks Magneto I may just leave it alone rather than make it any more difficult

I have resized several regions to the size that I want.  Magneto's advice is sound.  I believe if you have the SC4 mapper you can save the region as a .png file.  You would then have to convert it to a jpeg greyscale file and rescale it to the desired size.  There are several excellent articles on the Omnibus that describe in detail on how to do this. It may seem daunting at first, but it is doable.
