I have not actually thought to check. I might be able to try it next week.

Okay, i just tested it on Win7 x64, and drag and drop is not working, it crashes the program, opening it the "normal way" works just fine, but i'm unable to export the image as png too, the program crashes, i tested it with no option selected (jsut the plain shape o the map) and it will still crash, also the vespene geyser thingy is incredibly useful, such a pity i'm not able to use it more because all my maps are already have perfect vespene placements... + Show Spoiler +

You are just too good Uvantak

On the drag and drop thing, I haven't seen it myself, but it's weird. If you can open it the long way I guess that's a workaround for now.

There is a known bug with saving on windows. Instead of saving the map image, it tries to save the screen image. So to counter this i paste the map image over the top left of the screen so it saves that. The downside is it will crash if the window is smaller than the map. Try making the window bigger and let me know if it still crashes.
Be excellent to each other.

Can't make the window bigger since i'm using a 768p as a main monitor, but opening a different map that fits better on the window and exporting the image of it shows that you are right ^^ Thank you for the work man, meatpudding saving the mapmaking scene once again ♥

I'm having a problem with the openness:
+ Show Spoiler +
[image loading]


It isn't calculating average openness. It shows the colors and everything in the image, but there's no calculation. Has anyone else encountered this problem? This is pretty important for me to make sure that the map is balanced.

EDIT: Oh, and there's another problem. There are rocks placed that would affect the unit paths that the analyzer doesn't seem to recognize. I checked in the editor to make sure that they had "ignore placement requirements" unchecked. That isn't that big of a deal though, since I can make it unpathable for it to calculate and display the correct distances and times.

Well done meatpudding This is really cool and makes it a lot easier to check the distances between bases and the balance of the map!

For some reason I think he removed that feature. No clue why - it's one of the reasons I'm still using the previous version.

Out of curiosity, what is the use of average openness? I always considered as a useless feature since what you look for in a map are well-placed open areas and chokes, not an average value to attain.

I was interested in using it as another means of comparison between different maps, especially ones that are less standard, so that I can get an idea of how comparable my map is to others. It's not really that big of a deal though I guess. Having the analyzer show open areas and chokes is definitely more important than average openness.

No way to measure natural to natural rush distance, only main to main?

Edit: Nevermind, I'm just stupid. Found it.

Oh I didn't realise anyone was actually using average openness. It didn't seem that useful to me, but I can probably add it back in with a toggle for those of you who want to hide it.

With the destructible rocks, each rock type must be added to the file footprints.txt. I haven't filled it out for every rock that is available, in fact it's only had some minor updates since HotS came out. There is an updated file that AndG posted here: http://pastebin.com/ixUneuxc. I haven't had a close look, but it might have more up-to-date info.

meatpudding = favorite pudding

i was thinking about you and others while watching morrow shedding a tear for the mapmaking community on "remax"

while "mainly" only gameheart bloomed, this is not the end.. never the end! and such commitment will never be forgotten by some people

This worked initially, but after doing a few maps it stopped detecting ramps, minerals, or bases for any map. o.0

Reinstalled and its working fine, for the time being.

It works pretty good. Doesn't detect the huge rocks (the ones that are really long) so the Reaper time is skewed. Any way to fix?

Also crashes whenever I try to save the image. Any advice on this?

That was happening to me as well, but I thought it was a problem on my end (was saving to different computer on the network, which I sometimes have difficulty connecting too)

Have you found a workaround or do you just screencap it?
