map preview

[Crazy]

sry if this is the wrong place for this....

anyway, i know that there's svg>aamap stuff, but is there a aamap>svg?

i want to zoom in on previews, and without the image going blurry after zooming in?


so does this aamap>svg exist?

if not, any higher detailed previewers I could use instead?

And various other installs of the same software.

or, for an aamap>svg tool take a look at wrtl's "Yet Another Map Previewer" here.

If you want to see it in action, click here. It's much better if there's actually someone playing there It updates each second with the latest snapshot of the grid. Flower Power Sumo Assault grid that is.
I would recommend opera as it seem to have better svg support, but firefox works too without spinning zones and a couple of other features.
ie7 doesn't work at all for me.

does SVG output add lag? i noticed when i had it enabled on my server it would get choppy and there was cycle jumping

[kyle]

yes sometimes

There certainly seems to be a lot more lag cries there with it turned on.
Shame.
Now turned off.

Yes it add lag for sure. It's like a rendering to hard drive which is the slowest devise on a comp. Don't expect anything good with that... If you turn it on, just don't set the refresh rate too high ...
