Features[]
- Convert a specifiable subset of multiple maps in multiples WAD files to images.
- Specify line color and thickness as a function of linedef type and sector type.

- Imitate Yadex or Omgifol style with included configuration.
- Render things as sprites and or colored circles.
- Rotate, mirror, scale and offset images.
Example[]
With Yadex style (-c yadex argument) create an image for MAP03 (-n 3 argument) for the IWAD found on the default WAD search path (doom2.wad in this case). The map rendered is taken from the IWAD used (iwad positional argument):
wad2image.py -c yadex -n 3 iwad
