[MaNGOS/ArcEmu] Maze Creator tool

[Nika]

Hello Mmowners, I've not made this application, but i think, it's useful enough to post it here.. Quoting an original thread from emupedia ( [RELEASE] - Maze Creator; written in C# - Emupedia (http://emupedia.com/community/showthread.php?p=145990) )

Hi, it seems this is gonna be my first post here http://www.************/forums/images/smilies/wink.gif
Well, lets make it simple -
let me introduce you little tool i have written (well, its a bit more complicated, i have actually only rewritten into c# from php, its a bit faster now). Anyway, the idea and 1st working version was made by Bbtrash at wowresource.eu, you can see his work here - http://wow.zdechov.net/maze/ (warning - in czech language). Anyway, i have improved it a bit (ther should be support for both mangos and arcemu sql output, arcemu is untested, tho).

Download link (final) - Filebeam - Free Fast File Hosting (http://filebeam.com/193a22e83620e94e722021f4243f9c04)
+ gui reworked, arcemu SHOULD be supported

And what is it all about? Well, as the title says, this tools gonna help you create fun events on your servers, simply design maze (use left mouse to add boxes and right one to remove them), export it into sql, execute into database and your pretty own maze is complete. Now all you have to do is type .tele mazecreator and prepare the event http://www.************/forums/images/smilies/wink.gif

Oh, when you start it, dont be scared by the czech language, you can set it to english in menu on the right side.

+note: maze size shouldnt be bigger than 55 x 55 boxes (because of area size).
+ You can share your mazes with others (check export/import tab)
+ you are gonna need .NET Framework
All gredits goes to Axxxa (for application itself) and bbtrash (for original idea) of wowresource.eu

Nice.

But can you post some of your own work? I think all I've seen posted from you is other peoples work.

Agree, put out credits if you decide to copy :S

[enegue]

I agree, after reviewing all your releases and stuff, all of them aren't created by you and you copied them from ******* without giving credits. Copying from ******* is alright as long as you give credits to them, I suppose. Correct me if I'm wrong.

Boo :-)


Okay, application totally rewritten wink.gif


Finally i have rewritten my original maze creator (hopefuly) - there should be support for mangos/trinity/arcemu, arcemu is untested, tho.

Lets have a look at it

If you arent familiar withm my old maze creator, let me explain. It basicaly is exactly what the name says - as you can see on the picture above, you simply design maze by clicking, draging, copying and that kind of stuff and once you are done, you can export it into one of the supported sql formats.

Whats new in this version & general how to use
Its not that hard - simply use left mouse button to add boxes, right mouse button to delete them. Middle mouse button serves as stairs case.

You can also use your ctrl modifier key - press and hold it, press left mouse button and drag it around. Once done, press and hold ctrl again and perform right mouse click into active selection to access its options.

If the application is running too slow, you might want to disable few options in the settings tab, if you will enable fast mode, most of the useful features will be turned off, but ot the other hand it will run nearly on any computer.

Download
http://axwow.net/?cat=download

In the archive are the application binaries, source code and example maze (i recommend to load this maze, than export it, have a look on hows it done and how does it look ingame).

Please note that .NET Framework 3.5 is required to run the application.

Try Mazes that were made by other useres!

tried on arcemu doesn't work, they tables for it are incorrect.

according to the SQL file you should have 1 table called gameobjects, but arcemu has about 5 different game objects tables, and it would take to long editing the SQL from scratch to make it work.

[axxa]

eh? None of the exports generates insert into "gameobjects" table. However, mangos is using "gameobject" table. Are you totally sure you are using MY updated version (not the one from first post) and you have CHECKED arcemu output?

Nice Axxa :P
