Tool: Mapping Editor [Cancelled]

Due to missing implementations, real-life stress and other things concerning the GUI and the editor itself, I will not be able to release an alpha this week and maybe also not next week. I could release one but dislike this idea because I do not want to share unfinished and maybe buggy things. So please be patient a week or two. :-)

Dude, please don't rush with this project. I prefer to wait a couple of week to get a more stable release than having it now. If there are any bugs, make sure some people will start complaining about it and you may loose interest on doing this, so take it easy as we all count on you :P

The majority of the community has been using A-Map for over 5 years. We can wait a few more weeks for a stable map editor :)

Amazing new project and an amazing guy that is making the editor!

This could be my favourite ROM Hacking development of recent times

Looks better now! Take your time and make mappers like me more happy. Good luck!

Just asking.
Does this Map editor support only FIRE RED uptil now.
or it supports Ruby and Emerald too?

I was a bit skeptical at first but you've been making some amazing progress with this! It's really shaping up to be an amazing new map editor.

Things here that will make me call you Big Daddy:

• Support for expanded ROM offsets
• Actually showing the correct pallets of certain NPCs correctly (I think this is an Emerald-only problem)
• Allow us to edit the World Map on the program
• Allow us to import our own World Map image (I realize that this might be hard asf, since that'd mean a tilemap and tileset, just a suggestion though)
• Automatically index and fix colors for images (really time-saving) when inserting tilesets
• Allow us to import various map/world map-related ASM routines, such as expanding the amount of flight spots
• A quick reference tab of movement permissions

This map editor is looking REALLY nice, I'm really looking forward to using it. Thank you for dedicating your time to such an awesome tool.

This really is looking awesome, I'm excited for it. I'd like to see a start map editor built in, as well as a zoom feature (which will make life infinitely easier when this is ported to other devices :D)

Keep up the awesome work!

Zooming out would be awesome when making big maps.

@~Pokedude~
IDK if anyone has mentioned it before but...
Have you seen the alpha release of Shiny Quagsire's MEH ?
It has a connection editor type thingy
. Like to move maps with mouse rather than typing offsets like in Advance Map.
Can you implement that?

Umm is there any reason for the random cancellation?

Don't want to ruin things here but, Happy April Fools maybe?

Bit too early for April Fools jokes, isn't it? No, this is not a joke, this project is cancelled. I don't see any reason to develop this further with another, strong editor as its opponent (plus, diegoisawesome is one of the greatest and most skilled programmers of his generation). Diego will shake this thing, I am pretty sure. So please do not worry about this and look forward to the "Awesome Map Editor"! :-)

That is... extremely disappointing. Especially because you seemed to be making such great progress.

Plus the features you were going to have were epic :( I hope Diego will take some of the ideas you were going to implement and will use them in his project.
