disable clip camera possition, and you can zoom out and move out from map as far you want.

you need to make a screenshot looking to the south from an upper view of your map then make a minimap.dds file
with it and place it in ur map directory. You'll need .dds viewer and .dds converter. Both are available on internet.

game also accept "simple" JPG files for Minimap, Preview & Background pictures for each map. you dont need convert to DDS files.

Press F2 then 2 and select the polygon tool. u can add or remove landscape polygons with it.
You can even cut polygons in multiple parts for a more precise lanscape editing by changing the "level" number
and then using the brush and right mouse button over the desired area.
I suggest you show the land wireframe when doing this (press ALT+ W twice)
Just remember the more polys, the less performance so try to optimise.

removing polygons dont reduce filesize from map. possible bug from GEM editor? so, dont start with too big map. its much better add polygons than remove polygons for mapsize/filesize.
