continent_rect (and clamped_view) are the map bounds corners in absolute pixels within the worldmap (usually given by the texture_dims), where x/y 0 is the top left corner.
see that part of my parser for the use of that.
For the map_rect see a few postings above

Huh, wrong forum ;D
I would have expected a post in the API forum – on the other hand: i should look more often into this one^^
Anyway, thanks for that

you can do this as below :
longitude = (coord[0] - 16384) / (32768 / 360); latitude = 2 * arctan( e ^ ( ( coord[1] - 16384 ) / -(32768 / (2 * PI)) ) - PI / 2 ) * (180/PI);
Thanks so much for this, i got it working now – the hint about the map size was essential, but a few missing brackets made me crazy…
http://gw2.chillerlan.net/examples/gw2maps-gmaps-simple.html
so it looks like this now:
function fromPointToLatLng(point, max_zoom) {
var size = (1 << max_zoom) * 256,
lat = (2 * Math.atan(Math.exp((point.y - size/2) / -(size/(2 * Math.PI)))) - (Math.PI / 2)) * (180/Math.PI),
lng = (point.x - size/2) * (360/size);
return new google.maps.LatLng(lat, lng);
}
and LatLng to pixel conversion:
function fromLatLngToPoint(ll, max_zoom){
var point = new google.maps.Point(0, 0),
origin = new google.maps.Point(128, 128),
tiles = 1 << max_zoom,
bound = function(value, min, max){
if (min != null) value = Math.max(value, min);
if (max != null) value = Math.min(value, max);
return value;
},
sin_y = bound(Math.sin(ll.lat() * (Math.PI / 180)), -0.9999, 0.9999);
point.x = origin.x + ll.lng() * (256 / 360);
point.y = origin.y + 0.5 * Math.log((1 + sin_y) / (1 - sin_y)) * -(256 / (2 * Math.PI));
return new google.maps.Point(Math.floor(point.x * tiles), Math.floor(point.y * tiles));
}

Yep, and the browser extension injects the code to the current site – so it’s kind of a hack
will i get banned? since this is a third-party “program”?
This is actually no third party program. Installing a browser extension (which would be 3rd party, but not for the game^^) that just manages the appearance of a website isn’t bad at all.
btw. i made some more fixes. There’s still a problem with the “delete post” dialog when it loads via ajax into the overlay container. Current workaround: right click -> open in new window.

You’re welcome
I’ve found a little bug when posting and editing messages. i thought i had it fixed by adding :not(.flash.notice), but it wasn’t that easy. I recommend to remove the 2 occurences of this until i’ve brought up another fix.
Ok, i just wanted to adjust the width of the forum, because i’m sick of having 50% space wasted on my 1920 screen, but i ended up in a whole “redesign”. I’d like to share it with you, you just need a browser plug which can handle user stylesheets. Have fun

/*
* Fluid Layout CSS Hack for the official Guild Wars 2 Forums
*
*
* This stylesheet will override the forums default style and set it to a fluid full width layout
* with increased font sizes for better readability at high resolutions.
* It will also fix a few quirks like the unusable language links on the top and margins around smileys,
* adds a monospace font and background for <pre> tags, increases the size of editor textareas and hides the e-mail address in the forums overall header.
* (if you ever happen to make screenshots on the forums)
*
* intended for use with tools like:
*
* Stylebot (developed and tested with that)
* https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/stylebot/oiaejidbmkiecgbjeifoejpgmdaleoha
*
* Stylish for Firefox (a few things somehow don't work, like min-height for posts)
* https://addons.mozilla.org/de/firefox/addon/stylish/
*
* ...or any other browser plug-in which lets you add user defined styles.
*
* If you have suggestions or encounter problems with this stylesheet, just drop me a line on the gw2 forums
* or just leave a comment right here on GitHub. (just don't ask me how to install this!)

GW2 uses inches (don’t ask)
Y U NO USE METRIC SYSTEM?
(sorry, i couldn’t resist…)
Ah, ok. Thanks for the info

Hehe, thats the why i did it with my gmaps powerd wvw map weeks ago
https://chillerlan.net/gw2/wvw.html
I’ve already seen your approaches on the wiki, but you seem to have problems with bounding boxes aka. pan restrictions – thats why i posted my example on your talk page earlier. It has also a minimum of inline JS which allows easier maintenance and it already supports multiple maps as you can see.
(edited by smiley.1438)
Actually floor 2 seems to be the better choice to draw a full world map. Floor 1 is missing (or overwrites) sector names for Dredgehaunt Cliffs, Lornar Pass, Bloodtide Coast and Harathi Hinterlands. (You can see the holes on the map on low zoom levels with the sector name layer enabled. I’ve updated the demo on my server, not yet on GitHub – i’m using floor 2 now and dropped the workaround.
http://gw2.chillerlan.net/examples/gw2maps.html
btw. it’s interesting how leaflet manages the zoom levels depending on the viewport, yet annoying sometimes…
Dr Ishmael, i’d like to encourage you to use my example and help making it perfect for wiki use – i made these examples for the german wiki – i hope i’ll get some widget rights there soon to test it

Resize and translate this point to fit into
continent_rect(that’s the easy part) and boom, you can slap it onto the map.
Thats awesome!
Now make it so that it sends a POST request with the map_id/coords to a given URL (preferrably via https)…
(edited by smiley.1438)
Now that we have a maps API, the coordinates for WvW objectives would be greatly appreciated. (beside the correct objective names and types)
(edited by smiley.1438)
Before i start working with these: please group the events by map_id if possible. (It’s already a pain in the kitteh to write workarounds for getting a poi by id in the maps API. I don’t like workarounds – i like usable data )
(edited by smiley.1438)
Yep, thanks!
Another thing:
the map floor API returns just 1 sector element per map for some maps eg: id 26: Dredgehaunt Cliffs – i believe this is not intended or is this an instace map (apparently not)?
https://api.guildwars2.com/v1/map_floor.json?continent_id=1&floor=1
(edited by smiley.1438)
Is there a map for the mists? I didn’t see one, but it would definitely help for the WvW app I’m making.
Have you read the Documentation? *coughs*
https://api.guildwars2.com/v1/continents.json
apparently yes
I took Cliff’s example jsFiddle, expanded it, and turned it into a #widget for the wiki.
This is awesomesauce!
Hmm, 5G is huge, yes. :o
So i’ll give remote a try… Hand me some tranquilizers…
First of all: maps API – pure awsomeness – thanks for that one!
Would it be possible to zip the map tiles and have them as a seperate download? This would make life easier for developers on a slow internet connection (like me… coughs)

A temporary fix is to post another message to a thread which is broken like i did over here: https://forum-en.gw2archive.eu/forum/community/api/API-Suggestion-Guilds/page/2#post2155561
Wow, thanks!
Am i asking too much when i say that i’d like to have all pve maps in this quality, too?
