It's problem, I think.
But Most of user I met,
they didn't update everytime or
translate to their language.
Another purpose is see map outside of eq2 client and check their map file.
Resemble with eq2map folder structer,
it works fine.
It use relative path of files like below.
executable stored ---- eq2map (map definition file)
.......................|
.......................|+-- images --- maps (map image file)
pardon me, I have short tongue in English.
