    I'd recommend Dundjinni + CSUAC art pack (CSUAC Downloads). That should let you build a large map which you can export at your desired resolution. Note that the resolution of the exported map is limited by the individual resolution of the tiles you've used in constructing the map. Even if you don't use Dundjinni the CSUAC art pack contains a lot of useful textures. Part of the experience of being a cartographer is collecting a useful set of textures for the kinds of maps you want to make.

    Just a quick note. You can't buy Dundjinni. Make sure you read the Dundjinni forum posts for information regarding the Dundjinni store; which will accept your money but not deliver a key. One might argue that if you paid you have the right to run a copy of Dundjinni. I think someone needs to start up a Dundjinni clone :-)

    Partially correct, That is what happens if you use PayPal. If you try to purchase with a normal credit card it won't take your money without delivering the download key, but the order process may fail a few times before it works. Dundjinni was written for Win XP, it will work with Vista, 7 and 8, but you have to install it right. If you are interested, go to the Dundjinni Forums and read a lot of the posts about purchasing and installing before you try it. If you register as a user at DJ, you still have to email me or one of the other Admins to have your status upgraded so you can post. Bogiemaps (at) Gmail (dot) com. If you choose not to buy it, there are other programs like Campaign Cartographer that also work well.
