Hi guys,

I've discovered an interesting thing while messing up with the game's files.

During gameplay, press CTRL+ALT+F9. This will take a screenshot of the whole map, with all the units visible (including the enemy's). The process will take a while.

Go in the game directory and you will find a file named mapshot.tga, that is quite large. Now, probably you'll have problems viewing it. To solve this, download the program "wc3 image extractor ii" (Google it and you'll find it easily. It is for Warcraft 3, but worked perfectly in this case). All other image viewers I tried did not worked.

Execute the program (does not require installation) and convert the .tga image to .jpg. It is quite straight forward and does not need any further explanation. The image will be much smaller now, and you can view it from any image viewer. Unfortunately, the image will be upside down and mirrored. Use any image program to straight it up.

And now you have a complete map of the level with all the enemy positions at the moment you took it.

It is quite useful if you are like me, that does not like the fog of war feature.

Best regards,
