Solved Live map / dynmap

Hi ,i want a livemap plugin , gives that for exp ?

 

it's impossible to do that with lua. or at least i tried, but it uses way too much resources (75GB memory of ram minimum XD).
if we want to do it we might need to make it in C#. So it might take a lot of time before someone makes it

 

So i went into a server today and saw that when you typed /map it gave you a reference as to where you were on the map .. and you could go to a web page and look where you were on the map.


Has anyone thought of doing this and have it link to a central map..... Hell ill host the Map on my server if needed

????

 

Creating a plugin to do that isn't the problem, it's generating an image of the map

 

yeah we tried, in lua it's impossible to, only in C# it could be made.
but i know i cant do it

 

You could try hiring somebody from ODesk to develop this for your server however it wouldn't be cheap. I was also toying with the ideas of a website "seed viewer" you can type a seed in and it will generate a preview of it. Hard to find a good map seed these days. I spent 2hrs of map generating to get a good one XD

 

Some sort of "seed viewer" would be an awesome tool Bl4d3z

 

I stumbled across this seed a couple wipes ago and have stuck with it since then instead of changing every wipe like I used to because it's such an awesome map. server seed 5150 map size 6000 I posted some aerial shots of it in http://facepunch.com/showthread.php?t=1442947 that thread.

 

Currently going for it (again). Able to generate a top down 2D map so far, for now looking like this:



Edit: Added normals, smooth water borders and water depth.

 

omg man this is AMAYZING!

 

Could you please share this so i can make a 2d version of my map for my website?
