MapCreator

What's inside:
  • background
  • rivers/water
  • heightmap
  • bounds
  • NEW fixtures
  • NEW trees
  • NEW all zones
Additionally:
  • NEW added all zones
  • NEW rewrote the bound-generator, seems to work fine now
  • NEW same for the water renderer
What's missing/wrong:
  • missing: Keeps/Towers in New Frontier zones
Usage:

  • select map
  • click on "Render"
Please see MapCreator Github Repository for details and downloads

Have fun!

Excellent work, the rendering (tested with common camelot hills) is very good :)

Using niflib. I need a managed wrapper which gives me some basic information about a nif using C#. Niflib is wriiten in unmanaged C++ and can not be used out of the box in C#.

I do not need the whole thing, just these nodes of a nif:
- NiStringExtra
- NiLODNode
- NiTriShape
- NiTriStrips

If someone can give me a working example of a wrapper of one node for VS2010, I will add the other ones by myself. I am just unable to get started.
