MapMaker Query ..

[Breezer]

Would it be possible to make the map maker read a different folder eg. Data .. change to MapDat

This would mean that people that play servers and make maps would be able to do both without changing their Objects for certain servers they enjoy .. also this would be handy for people that just want to make maps and not actualy play mir

Thanks

this can be done now... just make a folder put mapedit in it and put the files u need to make maps in it (4got the dam names lol will remember in min -_-)

lol its easy, search the mir.exe for .\Map\ with a hex editor then replace the word map with what ever you want, this will mean a different mir.exe for each server though. i think thats what you ment? :P

and auron released source code but it didnt work. there is a working mir client source code though with just a few bugs :P

i wanted to make a different folder that the mapmaker reads from, so that when i go on to different servers i wont have to change my desired objects i use for my maps to the servers requirments

[Edit]

To make things more clear...
MapMaker reads the file its self e.g - Objects.wil
i want to change this to ... MapDat\Objects.wil

this means i wont have to search threw Data folder to find mapmaker , instead it'l be with Mir.exe

Make a folder called MapEdit anywhere, put object and tiles files in and the mapeditor, then make a shortcut to it and put that on desktop or wherever.
