Can't make Maps :(

[hirebrand]

Mapper XML link is dead, I need that file!



Creating Map from Scratch

get mapper.xml http://naikrovek.org/index.php?p=7#comments
get activeperl installer http://www.perl.com/download.csp
get inkscape http://inkscape.org/download.php

run around hitting /loc along all the walls and major objects/bodies of water in game.
type
/emote start new map line
to start a new line. This way you can "raise the pen" until you hit /loc again.
I recommend making a hotkey for both "/loc" and "/emote start new map line"

open cmd

type
perl "c:\mapper.xml" "c:\logfile.txt" > "c:\map.svg"

use the "paranthesis" if pathname has a space.

where c:\mapper.xml is obvious.
C:\logfile.txt is your logfile...
and C:\map.svg is the output file to be opened in Inkscape.

open the map.svg with Inkscape.
Export the image.

make it pretty.
