[Release] CoCartographer. Map Viewing Software

So... I started on this as a way to teach myself some basic 2d graphics coding. I've since become more focused on my pserver work and completely forgot about it until earlier today.

I know sparkie released a map viewer ages ago but I've yet to see handy links to it on epvp so I've decided to post this just so people have something to use. It's not done... hell it's not even really that great... but it works so that's what matters.

Supports simple map loading (no map objects) as well as zooming and moving around the map. No dmap data or map objects arein use so don't expect it.

You must set up the content yourself. I wasnot willing to upload 800 mb of files for you

Welcome to a crappy test version of my Conquer Map viewer! Literally ALL you can do with this version is view maps... which is really all it's intended to do untill I possibly take the time to make a map creator out of the idea. HOW TO USE: Because I don't feel like uploading hundreds of MB of data, you will have to 'populate' the data. To do this follow these simple instructions! 1: Open your client install. 2: Copy the contents of /ani/ into the /Content/ani folder of the map viewer 3: Copy the contents of the /Map/map and /Map/puzzle files into the /Content/Map folder of the map viewer 4: Use the enclosed WDF extractor to extract your client's Data.wdf file. 5: Copy the entire /Data/Map/Puzzle/ folder's contents from the extracted data into the /Content/Data/Map/Puzzle Folder of the map viewer You should now be good to go! Usual Jibber-Jabber: I made this (pro4never) so don't claim you did (although you could make your own quite easily), don't re-release, etc. Enjoy! Pro4Never

Seeing as I forgot to add the extractor in the download like I said I was gonna... here's a link ^^

It's cool because I saw you developing this =p
How'd you have time tho? I thought you were working on your private server?

I am working on my pserver. I wrote this in a few days back when I was talking about it and then forgot all about it till today when I noticed tq hadn't finished one of the maps I was on.

I tend to find side projects that distract me <_< mostly learning this 2d coding and writing this was a 2-3 day side interest that kinda went away.

I'd definitely like to do more along the lines of a map editor down the road but for now I'm just focusing on the server.

Nice

as i told you you are my lovely Coder

A map editor would be epic.
I've proposed a lot of new maps to TQ recently, none of which has gotten any attention (because they created their own ... better new ones). But for older clients, I still prefer my map. I'd love to see it turned into a real map! =p

Any way you would release the source code?

Just curious if this uses the dmaploader i wrote?

If you want to add support of WDF package, just ask, I have a full support of the format.

It has no dmap functionality at all... so no.

@ source, meh, I can pm you it tomorrow maybe.

@ wdf struct. I may keep that in mind if I decide to do a full editor.

Fair enough, was just curious because it was built with things like this in mind ^_^.

You are the best!

Waa Spirited, that map is actually pretty cool ! Some very little imperfections here and there but you said it's not finished so that's normal

I'd love to see more !

Awesome tool Chris even if it's a viewer, not editor it's still great to have those map overviews. Setting t up right now

._. i really don't want to finish it... or do more. There's no point. I rather focus my energy on other projects.
