[Release] Mapinfo viewer

[Kape7]

Hey. This will be my last free-to-use release, its just a mapinfo.mfo viewer.

For those who don't know, mapinfo.mfo contains the enabled regions, this means, the regions that both the client and the server load. With this viewer you can see the enabled regions on a mapinfo file. This is good to know for example why when you add arabia maps on your server you can't see constantinople fortress.

Download attached.

PS: Ignore the X/Y thing, I did this program in 3h during class, not even finished it, and got lazy when doing the coords, so are not 100% right XD

EDIT: Forgot! Thanks to perry for explain how the mfo format worked XD

A Map Editor ? You would see this Section gets flooded by crappy new released Maps. To be honest, better keep a Editor for yourself so your Server has something "Special" at all instead of Maps created by Beginners who claim it "Krall".

Hell I could even see it, some Peoples are releasing just plain Maps with no Mountains at all or Water Spots

there was a game some time ago, name Tales of Pirates
it was a crappy community, and a crappy game btw
after the server files where leaked, everything went to hell
but everything went even worst when a guy released a map editor/creator

oh ***, the horror
plain maps with no textures, no walls, not interesting design

this game, however, has a very simple map style

If you apply the same formula to SRO: OMG
i can imagine China map ****** up, random collision points without no advice or visible obstacles

To anyone with interest on a map editor: DON'T EVEN RELEASE IT

Let's first finish that editor before talking about what to do with it :P

Actually I meant a editor, to enable the other regions.
Such as the new battle arena with arabia map....

The community doesnt have such creativity to deserve for the map editor to be released. Eitherway you could easily unpack anyones client and just get the map from there. So untill someone has an unpackable client (which is impossible) its not really worth creating anything.

This is what I meant, Peoples getting the Map Files and releasing it here^^

Perry did one fully functional, I made mine inspired on his mapinfo editor, but after spending 3h on it got bored and didn't want to complete the "editor" part, so its just a viewer XD
