Yeah that crash is a known issue on Windows only, it exists in SDL, the graphics library I am using (https://bugzilla.libsdl.org/show_bug.cgi?id=2705). It only happens when your map is bigger than your window, which I know is sometimes unavoidable. For me to fix it... either wait for the 2.0.4 releas of LibSdl, use the unstable snapshot, or drop SDL altogether.

The rocks aren't showing up because they aren't in footprints.txt. You can try adding them yourself if you can guess the name of them. At the moment I don't have a working copy of the editor but maybe when I do I can go through and audit all the destructibles for HotS.
Be excellent to each other.

Okay, well I got a screenshot which works just fine :-)

Alright. Well the Reaper distance isn't the most important for the current purpose for me, mostly main to main.

I would suggest if you plan on updating it to include main ramp to main ramp and natural ramp to natural ramp. Would be extremely helpful for the necessary info to include for analysis, contests, etc.

That should be easy to do I think

Edit: Pretty sure that you are able to take measurements in the editor now as well.

Anyone who thinks the "average openness" value is in any way relevant either doesn't know map design or doesn't know what "average" means. I have been manually removing average openness from generated analyser pictures for at least a year, and now that it's been removed from the analyser altogether you guys want to have it back? Seriously...

Sry for Bump, but any chance this can get fixed? It was never great to begin with it had a lot of bugs (oc its still very very useful).
But with the new 3.0.0 patch its almost just unusable, ramps no longer show, distances are all screwed up, LotV minerals dont show... (both pc & Mc versions)
Any chance someone can get this working for LotV or sooner?

Thnx man I appreciate it!
Im sending you liks:
1) My map Ida (HOTS minerals)
2) a WIP im making for LOTV that has the new LotV mineral patches. (the minerals that are not showing on analyzer)
http://www.mediafire.com/download/e7b002i59czz5si/[M]_(4)_SMA_Ida.SC2Map
http://www.mediafire.com/download/6l25n2196a33f3t/LOTV_Minerals.SC2Map
I fear you might have 2 DL th editor after all

Thanks again, you analyzer is the best, and I (and I am sure many others) find it extremely useful !

Edit: LotV minerals did show on analyzer on the maps I sent you (for some weird reason) but I tested it on a couple more maps I have, and some times analyzer reads them and some times not, worth looking in2.

The build has been updated.

sc2mapanalyser.appspot.com

I've linked to the latest version of StormLib and hopefully that clears up some issues. There some more bugs that should be cleared up over the next few days, as long as time permits. Unfortunately I haven't fixed everything that I wanted to so far. If you're having any problems with your map, make sure you post about it here or pm me.

Be excellent to each other.

Thanks for keeping this project updated, meatpudding! Will you push the latest code to the repo?

The analyzer still doesn't show cliffs, proper bases, and thus rush distances. :/ Still pretty useless.

I'm moreso interested in using the map reader for my own application. The existing solutions (sc2reader, mpyq, etc) don't seem to work with the latest map file format.

Sorry it took so long.... but now we have an updated LotV Mac version!


Released Feb 11, 2016

[WINDOWS DOWNLOAD]

[MAC DOWNLOAD]


There have been a lot of changes, some bugs are fixed, some bugs are new. I wanted to put it out there bugs and all because most of it works and I wanted everyone to at least have access to the openness map.

I have put more work into identifying missing footprints. There is a more readable error message when a missing footprint is detected, which happens a lot. This is the cause of missing items like mineral patches, destructible debris, etc. These can be edited into footprints.txt at any time and should be easier if you know the name of the object. Hopefully in a future version it will be even easier to manage footprints.

I have added an interactive colour gradient editor. It's a little flimsy in this release, but it allows you to play around with openness and influence colours. Eventually every colour will be editable.

Pathing is broken, but this can be checked in the galaxy editor.

There is no "Average Openness" value. In the future this will be a toggle.

That's all I can think of for now. Happy Mapping!

Thanks a lot meatpudding, now with Blizz not doing much fiddling of the engine in the foreseeable future (eternity) there should be no worry when it comes to features of the analyzer breaking anymore.

Anyhow, thanks again mate
