Any map-previewing scripts?

Post by LOVER$BOY »

Hey guys!

AS the question does my asking for me, are there any online Map Previewing scripts out there apart from the map-preview.user.js

This is to preview my racing maps as I'm planning on putting those records online.

Many thanks in advance.

I'm sorry, that map previewer is just terrible. Use this one. http://wikinger.bplaced.net/armaauth/mappreviewer.php

Ya AI-Team and Smart but what I was looking for was something that automatically generates the preview maps from just inserting the map's path.

You get what I'm saying?

If you don't, then this is what I'm hoping to get:
http://armaracing.net/map.php?map=100Watts.txt

These map images are being generated through a script by automatically entering their map_paths (I might be wrong here). That's the kind of script I'm looking for.

I hope I made more sense now (sorry for being complex minded).

I believe this is what you need. you can add calls to it on your website to generate the map previws automatically. We use a slightly modified version of it for http://crazy-tronners.com/servers.php or you can make a little script to generate them.

Thanks heaps kyle :)

Although I would've by now, the reason is simply because I'm not too talented in coding up something like this :P

Anyway, thanks for your help again kyle :)

UPDATE:
I got a question... how do you use this?

you'll need ruby and you'll want to call the bin/map-preview use --help for first time to see how to use it
