MinimapOverlay (Windows Application)

I developed this application about two years ago to automate the creation of perimeter zones for FiveM. It allows users to define zones using coordinates, visualize them, and export the result as a PNG file ready for use.

Interface

Use Case exemple

The generated images are designed to be used with custom scaleform scripts (such as ScaleformUI or similar) that allow you to add overlays and textures to the ingame Minimap. If you are creating gang zones, or blip areas, this tool simplifies the process of generating the correct visual assets from your coordinates.

Features

• Coordinate Input: Enter coordinates in standard formats like vector2(x, y) or simple (x, y).
• Image Generation: Create images of zones with fill and borders.
• Transparency and Color Adjustments: Customize the polygon’s opacity and color.
• Scale Calculations: Dynamically calculate scales and the geometric center of the zone.
• Export: Save generated images in PNG format.
