Title: Mcshay's Mapper
Post by: jcj94 on March 29, 2011, 09:41:02 AM

I just read up on the "RMG" or Random Map Generator.

I went to the site and found that It wasn't completed.  Now, I don't know a lot about how difficult it would it be to finish it if we were to get the base items.

I'd just really enjoy seeing this finished.  

I'll try to help if anyone could teach me how.

Yes! we do need more users determined to contribute to ideas good liek this one! the Random map generator would of been very useful for map making...

...yeah im curious too what happened. Was it posponed? or did it actually die out? (hope not!) if nobody is working on it could sombody let the rest of the community take a look?

It's gone; and even if we had it the code had absolutely no comments or structure.  It would have taken more time to figure out what was going on with the code than it would to just re-write the whole thing.

I've already got a lot on my plate, what with that whole AI project coming up, as well as a few things I am/may be working on on the side.

But instead of volunteering other people to do it, why don't you give it a try yourself?  I could probably toss a few ideas and some assistance your way if you want.

I agree with Sirbomber in "Don't just go and say "someone else do this""  I posted a map for you guys to do whatever with, but I am also working on a map.  (don't mean to flame yah LoP)

Maybe If I get good, I'll write a program to extract the map file from the RMG in OP2...
