Cannot Save city map as a png

I cannot save my city map as a png (or jpg or bmp for that matter). Unfortunately I don't know why can't. I am using with the most recent patch (CC3 vs 3.40) and neither my Vista or XP machine will save as a png. I tried at 4 different resolutions (1600x1214, 1200x911, 1024x777, 800x607) but it wouldn't save at any of them. I have uploaded the file to my server to see if someone can save it for me, or at least tell me why I can save it as a png.


CenterCity_NorthWestCorner.FCW
the textures I used I also uploaded CenterCityTextures.zip
And the custom colors I used are:


Color 192:
Red: 195
Green: 171
Blue: 139


Color 193:
Red:178
Green: 145
Blue: 129


Color 194:
Red: 110
Green: 71
Blue: 44


Color 195:
Red: 60
Green: 60
Blue: 60

    I believe it is the sheer number of rather complicated entities in your map that produces the problems. The houses created by the random street options are great, but they are also rather complicated. Such a large city would probably have been better created as an overview map with simpler symbols (after all, you cannot really see the individual houses properly on the zoomed out map anyway), and created separate detail maps for each district.

    I was unable to export your map to an image directly, but I did have more luck printing it to a file instead. I would recommend you try PDF Creator. This software installs a printer driver on your system that turns everything you print to it into a file. It can save the file as either a .pdf file, or as any common image format.

    Is there anyway to change the houses without have to draw all of them again?
