I'm glad this tool got revived.

I found the source code for Dimfish's old version here on github. Is the source for your updated software available somewhere? I maintain the sc2reader library and am interested in exposing an API for map information. It seems that your software would be a good reference for map file formats and interpretation.

Thanks.


Great idea.

Dimfish's version no longer works for the current map format. Though there are only 2 small changes that have to go through for it to work with the current format. I can pm you if you get the source compiling.

Most of my code is in writing the user interface and display code. A map API is perfect for that kind of stuff.

So far nothing has been committed. It will be when it's ready. Most people are using it without a hitch, so the release went better than expected.

Oh and if you happen to be able to compile the old version on a mac that would be a huge time saver.
Be excellent to each other.

Yeah it works fine, the only thing I've noticed is that it crashes if you minimize it (in windows 7). But since I generally just have it open for a second to analyze my latest and then close it, that isn't an issue at all.

Thanks for the report. Helps me a lot to hear if it works or not for you. I just checked and that issue should have been fixed by v5 when I switched to OpenGL.

Go into the Starcraft II Map Editor.
In the Battle.net tab, log in and open the map you want.
Save the sc2map file anywhere.

Another request: Could you make the travel distances a bit more sophisticated? Like, maybe I want to calculate the main2nat distance, or main2choke, or to another base altogether if the nat is actually further away than the main (e.g. because it's an in-base natural).

Hey guys. I have the first new version for mac. Currently some features are not available.

SC2MA_OSX.zip


What is working
- Openness
- Watchtower
- Base names
- Siege area

What is not working
- Resources
- Object footprints
- Paths

Right now it is important to develop stability across platforms. When that's all working regular feature development should continue.

Added updates to the OP with new ladder maps for season 5.
There are new downloads for windows and mac. There is still some tweaking between platforms but right now using 95% unified code. Anyway, the mac version should be fully featured now. Just drag-and-drop map files onto the window.
If you encounter any bugs please post them here.

AAAHHHHH x2. Never stop, meatpudding. Compared to trying to hack together a working Mac analyzer that never really worked quite right, drag and drop is a dream.

Map Analyser update 8

Download links are in the OP.

New features
  • Images are now drawn using the values stored in colors.txt
  • Base locations are accurate using the fix from mischanix's branch
  • Added full source code to GitHub


Known issues
  • Warped images on some PC's
  • Custom screens or non-standard melee maps may cause crash
  • Not all LoS-blockers and destructible rock types are accounted for
  • Pathing is not 100% accurate, especially cliff-walking


Thanks for trying. If you have any problems or questions please let me know.

Thanks for the source; starred and watched! The old project code was very helpful when adding map support to sc2reader. Hopefully I'll be able to incorporate some of your changes as well and bring my own contributions in the future.

Map Analyser version 9

Download links are in the OP, I have only done Windows build for now, new Mac version coming later.

- Hopefully fix any warped images, by changing image library from pngwriter to DevIL
- Added the footprints for some of the large rocks that were missing
- Display for destructible debris areas
- Most colours can be changed via color.txt
- Pathing has been reworked and you can now define pathing end points between bases

If anybody is still having issues when they try this please report back here.
Be excellent to each other.

I suffer the same issue that Meerel has, i'm using Win 7 sp1 x64 if that helps of anything, also you remember what happened to these analyzer images in my thread where the minerals didn't show up? well i'm getting the same thing, at first i thought it may be the map's size, so i tested with a wide variety of maps, but that doesn't seem to be the problem, but as it happens the issue seems to be more common with maps around ~138^2. It is no biggie to me tbh, it is an excellent tool still :D

As for the warped/clipped images...

It is fixed!

Thanks for the feedback.

Updated version a10 in the OP.

'Open map' button has been fixed. There was a problem after changing directories with the open dialog and it couldn't find the font files needed.

Missing minerals and rocks etc. are due to missing entries in footprints.txt. I added a bunch of rock types last release. The missing minerals were just lab mineral types and I have added them too. Pretty much just going through one by one as I find missing info. You can edit these files yourself if you need to, same with colors.txt. The reload button is there for testing color schemes without having to reload the map.

Also there is a log, but at the moment it spits out too many messages when applying footprints. It tries to apply each doodad as all types, eg resource, nobuildmain, destructible etc. But minerals are only resource and nobuildmain types so there's a no footprint found message when it tries to apply mineral as a destructible. Not perfect, but helpful for finding the names of missing objects.

I changed a bit of the rendering code so if there are any more bugs please let me know by pm or post them here.

Heya there meatpudding. With Mac OS X 10.9 (Mavericks), it seems the Mac version of this app doesn't work. Here's the relevant bit in the crash log:

Crashed Thread: 0

Exception Type: EXC_BREAKPOINT (SIGTRAP)
Exception Codes: 0x0000000000000002, 0x0000000000000000

Application Specific Information:
dyld: launch, loading dependent libraries

Dyld Error Message:
Library not loaded: /usr/local/lib/libftgl.2.dylib
Referenced from: /Users/USER/Downloads/*/SC2MA.app/Contents/MacOS/SC2MA
Reason: image not found


The app isn't able to find libftgl.2.dylib; might have something to do with Apple doing a lot of architectural changes in the OS.
