I just tested it, and it's awesome!

FliesLikeABrick · « **Reply #2 on:** August 07, 2006, 12:10:08 pm »

does it use foldernames like maps or Maps?

"maps" will work on all systems (windows clients, windows/linux servers) whereas "Maps" works on everything, but is a real huge pain in the ass on Linux dedicated servers.

rainrider · « **Reply #3 on:** August 07, 2006, 12:14:18 pm »

It uses lowercase names of directories.

Mistercharles · « **Reply #4 on:** August 07, 2006, 02:22:27 pm »

YES.

Will heavy compression destroy the map / sceneries? What level do you reccommendd?

Edit: Nice cheap blending method

FliesLikeABrick · « **Reply #5 on:** August 07, 2006, 03:08:52 pm »

no, compression will not change how anything ends up.

I love it, thanks!!
I have been waiting for a map previewer for a while!

This looks nice and very useful, but everytime I pick a map from the list it crashes for me.
In case you need my system details:
OS: Windows XP Home SP2
GFX Card: nVidia GeForce 6600 GT 128 MB

EDIT. Works on my other comp, it is almost identical except it has SP1 and 256 MB of VRAM instead (same card otherwise).

This looks very promising, but I couldn't test it for a simple reason: my Soldat folder is not D:\games\soldat ;)
Otherwise nice app... it's useful and the polyview is a neat feature!

New version works fine, no crashes.
Good job.

jrgp · « **Reply #13 on:** August 08, 2006, 02:57:23 pm »

I tried downloading and got an error 403.

FliesLikeABrick · « **Reply #14 on:** August 09, 2006, 06:36:56 am »

The download appears to work fine [now].

jrgp · « **Reply #15 on:** August 09, 2006, 01:58:37 pm »

The slider on top sets the compression level, it's not for zooming.

Troop · « **Reply #17 on:** August 12, 2006, 07:28:59 am »

Looks nice, gj rr

Though I'm getting access violation and many errors if it's not installed correctly (missing sceneries propably [External Expection 8000003])

rainrider · « **Reply #18 on:** August 12, 2006, 03:19:22 pm »

Gotta check that files exists. I'll post new version in minutes.
[edit]K done. If still u'll get errors, tell me on what maps exactly and when.

BombSki · « **Reply #19 on:** August 29, 2006, 04:15:52 pm »

The packer doesnt pack textures! If you fix that i love it.

I think it shouldnt be a map'packer' though, because the preview option is just as nice, if not nicer, than the packing function.
good job, nice prog

Requiem- · « **Reply #20 on:** August 29, 2006, 04:24:25 pm »

Ehh.. I got a quite big prob here lol. From the moment I start smp.exe , the error "Invalid floating point operation" pops up all the time. I can't click it away, I have to terminate the program with ctrl alt del.. Has anyone experienced this too?? Or can someone help me ?

Plonkoon · « **Reply #21 on:** August 29, 2006, 05:53:19 pm »

Excellent program. but I suggest you also add a scenery and texture packing subprogram.

rainrider · « **Reply #22 on:** August 30, 2006, 03:20:10 am »

wtf are you talking about guys?.. it packs textures (yes it does -.-), sceneries and map files, and no, I won't make another crappy subprogram with only one or two functions, i want make multifunction apps like this (maybe not so much multifunction but still it's different than most apps). if viewer won't work on your cpu, use enesce's Map Development Wizard.

Gold · « **Reply #23 on:** August 31, 2006, 01:04:41 am »

Nice program, its a handy device

Frenchie · « **Reply #24 on:** September 09, 2006, 07:05:42 am »

I dont know if your working on this anymore,
but would an option to pack multiple maps and there files in one go be hard to implement?

Such as when the whole list of maps pop up, hold ctrl and select all the ones you want.
Thanks

VirtualTT · « **Reply #25 on:** September 09, 2006, 08:49:03 am »

if you need to pac several maps you can use SMA:
-=Scr1=- -=Scr2=- -=Scr3=- -=Download=-

Frenchie · « **Reply #26 on:** September 09, 2006, 06:52:54 pm »

Wow,
Thats better than I had in mind,

Thanks alot.

Predator0520 · « **Reply #27 on:** October 09, 2006, 02:47:37 am »

This program is so cool, usually when i didnt knew about that program i spent about 15 ~ 30 minutes on scenery packing.
