no problem... glad you got it working :)
I dont think it's such a good idea converting SONY maps into SEQ and distributing them with showeq.... I think that would violate copyright. I dont think however there is a problem with writting an app that will conver their format and letting everyone do their own conversion.

Or, just edit ShowEQ to read both types of maps...

Not sure what i'm doing wrong, downloaded the pre-converted maps and placed them on my eq map dir .. (my eq dir is not default), when i zone into say PoN ... the maps is not shown. I alt-tab into d:\program files\everquest\maps and the ponightmare_1.txt is there =/ any suggestions ?
Turn off height filtering in the map window.
And zoom way out. Sometimes you have to click the zoom out thing like 80 zillion times.
The mouse wheel also zooms in/out.. much easier to use, if you have one.

We run SEQ ...do you think we really care about Sony's copyright on a few silly text files? :)Quote:

Its the difference between cheating at a game, and breaking the law by distributing copyrighted matierials... big difference..

Thanks deadpoet, that did it :) ...
Now as to the copyright issue, like jeeves said, its much different to say you are cheating at the game then when you say you destribute works created by the game manufacturer. Keeping THEIR files off showeq dist is important. You have to remeber, it's THEIR files, we simply have a liscense to use them.
however that doesn't mean you can't convert them yourself and use them in your copy of SEQ.
Archaeopteryx, I think the _1 at the end of the file name refers to the "1,2,3" overlays of the map, so make sure you have atleast 1 clicked.
