How does it look ingame?

 

[zbizu]

terrible so far because I started working on it from scratch.
here is a gif of my old generator: https://i.imgur.com/Q6vz1d9.gif
it will work same way, but will be faster and will have more features also

Great job m8. I remember when you first wrote a msg to me when you had started working on this. I haven't seen the source yet but working lua version is a masterpiece itself

[zbizu]

@Mariuskens
I don't understand your point. Please make your statement more clear.

No, this will not create a map from a clients mini map

 

[zbizu]

updated

to linux and osx users:
any console errors on startup?
loader.lua needs to be tested on operation systems different than windows so tell me if it works or not.

 

[zbizu]

Bump

[zbizu]

- you may generate any amount of maps

I noticed you haven't done much work on this or anything lately... wassup? I got a job where I work 50+ hours a week is why I have been hella busy, but I have always been thankful of your work, and quite frankly this generator I have admired

 

[zbizu]

had exams, did some mapping recently (working on evo from scratch)
I'll back to working on it when I need it.

You can still create pull requests, it's a public repo.

Are you working on the evo you released? or why did you decide to start from scratch?
Anyway gl mate
