Get mapconv x/n parameters from compiled map?

[p4wl]

Hello everyone - maybe this is a dev topic but as mapconv fixing is discussed here, too:
Is it possible to get the -x and -n params used during compile of a map with mapconv from a map file (smf inside an sd7)? Are they somehow extractable?

sometimes tha smd file contains overrides, you can get it ingame visually or from lua.

I would agree, almost any newer map will use the .smd or mapinfo.lua. mapinfo.lua will be in the root of the archive (sd7 or sdz) and the .smd will be next to the .smf in the /maps folder inside the archive.

On the other hand if for some reason you need the smf values; I know l3dt can decompile maps completely and tell you what you want.

If you wanted to write a simple smf reader I re-wrote the file structure page to make more sense.

They are stored at 48 and 52 byte offsets from the start of the file as floats.

Damn I like those nice dox :)

Perfect! Thank you very much, this is exactly what I was looking for.

(And yes, wonderful docs!)
