Chewd Posted February 27, 2004 Posted February 27, 2004 moomapper is now open source, I was jsut curious if anyone on this board has been playing around with it and planning on a new version? Looking for better path editing more than anything else
Chewd Posted February 27, 2004 Author Posted February 27, 2004 what exactly does your comment mean vass? I'd luv to see new maps for vice city if the editor were better
vass69 Posted February 27, 2004 Posted February 27, 2004 1. i think i remember that the mta team said they havent got the licence from R* for that (dont remember exactly) 2. if you edit it on your own, then you r a modder
orappa Posted February 27, 2004 Posted February 27, 2004 He's not necessarily talking about using it in conjunction with MTA.
Chewd Posted February 27, 2004 Author Posted February 27, 2004 I'd like to see it work with mta to provide more variety in the future and the creator of moomapper has now made it open source since he/she doesn't have time to work on it anymore. Being that it is open source greatly increases the chance of it being able to be compatible with mta and I think mta as a whole will attract more users and keep people playing more if there ar eother maps in the future. I have 3d moddeling skills myself and have played with moomapper but the path editing isn't great and is a major pain in the ass to get new pedestrian/vehicle paths implemented. moo mapper link for open source version http://www.chronetal.co.uk/gta/
bobo_5932 Posted February 28, 2004 Posted February 28, 2004 How come everyone likes open sauce? What is it? Why is it better?

Chewd Posted February 28, 2004 Author Posted February 28, 2004 bobo.. open source is good because it means (essentially) that anyone can take a look at how it was made and can modify it. And I'm hoping someone with some coding skills out there will get interested in working on it to improve the mapping program.
ddff Posted February 29, 2004 Posted February 29, 2004 The only bad thing of Moo Mapper is the annoying wrong object height bug: After changing a few objects, all objects are in a different height in GTA... Does somebody know a workaround?
ddff Posted February 29, 2004 Posted February 29, 2004 This bug happens if you save to often, i think. But it's a kind of coincidence when the whole map gets messed up.
MAD_BOY Posted February 29, 2004 Posted February 29, 2004 lol, i save every 2 minutes, so that can't be the prob
Ransom Posted February 29, 2004 Posted February 29, 2004 I think moo mapper has been open source for quite awhile, hasn't it?
Chewd Posted March 1, 2004 Author Posted March 1, 2004 it's been open source for a few months at most I think but am hoping someone here with some coding skills can make it run better. I'd also like to see it have some more extension support (maya lightwave & world builder specifically)
MAD_BOY Posted March 1, 2004 Posted March 1, 2004 actually, it's open source since: Feb 5 2004, 20:33 ^got that from gtaforums ^
Ransom Posted March 1, 2004 Posted March 1, 2004 I doubt you'll get anything here. Ask on the http://www.gtaforums.com forums
