It looks very good

Whoa, that looks absolutely amazing and incredibly useful. Any plans on releasing the source? Why does it show you its FPS in the window bar if it only shows a picture of the map?

Oh, and btw, what are those CC maps listed in the second screenshot?

[rainrider]

1. Thank you :d
2. Source is available , just click the link
3. It doesn't render a picture - you can navigate with mouse and zoom with mousewheel. FPS is visible also when other tabs are focused, but that's only because it would look ugly if it was frozen.
4. These maps are Camping Carl's .

@up it is possible, but I know nothing about unixes and wine itself. I think that most precarious thing would be GD library loading and rar.exe spawning during pack operation.

I think I can see from the source that it uses OpenGL for its map rendering. Do you think it might work on Linux through Wine or does it use some Windows proprietary stuff? I really wish I saw this thread while I still had access to my Linux machine

0.73 released. If you download it, read help file ('hotkeys' and 'other info' sections). They provide useful knowledge. Imo.

But for now, I say goodnight. It's 04:44 am here .

[jrgp]

Whoa, cool! It works perfectly under wine

Because i can't edit first post...

0.73b - 2008 VIII 02
* Added 'play this map button'. This button erases your mapslist.txt. Old mapslist will be renamed to mapslist_smpbackup.txt. On program start, exit, .ini reload and soldat path change if there's mapslist_smpbackup.txt, mapslist.txt is deleted and backup it's is renamed back to mapslist.txt.
* Better handling of corrupt png/jpg/gif textures
* Enabled logging to log.txt
* Added f2 hotkey focusing maps list
* Gostek may now be drawed properly (behind polys and some sceneries, like in Soldat)
* Few gui fixes
