The Maps of Oblivon

[vagabondfirefly]

So, I am going to start working on an interactive map of cyrodiil and all it's locations and quests and various tid bits of info about each place. I know it's been done but I haven't had a good Flash project to work on in a bit and I feel really inspired to do this.

 

Now, my problem is, I need to find naked maps of cyrodiil, it's cities, and dungeons and buildings if possible. When I say naked, I mean devoid of icons and crap. Is there a way to extract these images in jpg or png or whatever format from oblivion itself, or is there a depository of these anywhere around?

 

I did search but "source maps" and other variations of are rather ambiguous search words and I couldn't think of better search terms for what I'm looking for. Also they yielded no pertinent results.

you could ask the guys who made this http://www.uesp.net/maps/obmap/obmap.shtml if they could give you some Hints =)

Could always take LOD textures, either high detail downloads, or the vanilla ones, and use those as a basis. Figuring out where water is can still be a bit tricky unless you feel like generating your own LOD textures for each map with water enabled.

OK so I've figured out how to extract and convert the dds map files into the format I want to use (GIF), but the problem is, I've only managed to find the main map of Cyrodiil and the icons used on the map. Now I need to find the city maps and dungeon maps, any ideas where I would find them? BTW I'm referring to where I could find them in the Oblivion.bsa, since that's where I found the icons and the map of Cyrodiil.
