Hey guys,
I just saw those mapping graphic tools on the homepage (http://ddnet.org/downloads/) and now I'm asking myself how they work :o
would be very thankful if someone can explain it to me. :oops:

You just have to drag and drop the *.png images on the exectuable

For tilesets:
First use `border_fix` or `border_add`, it will shrink every tile a bit. It's necessary so the tiles won't "bleed" into each other when teeworlds draws them.
Then use `dilate`, which will take care of transparent areas to prevent black/white borders around your images (blending + mipmap issues)

For other images (quad textures):
Just use `dilate`

And always make a backup of your original graphics before you borderfix/add/remove. Because you should edit the original version if you want to change anything, then do another run of borderfix/add/remove.
