FO/FO2 Map Viewer

Question, is it at all possible to have the option to display the hex grid overlayed on the map, and the hex number display within each hex? You have no idea how useful that would be for my modding.

Thanks Digital_Utopia... :clap:

Actually, that's a pretty good idea - and unlike the selecting items thing I mentioned, I should be able to do that without any major modifications. After all, it already loops through all the hex/grid positions when it places everything. I'll see what I can do.

Just wanted to clarify something about the numbers - You wanted the actual "flat" number, correct? Like not formatted into x/y?

Sduibek · Dec 29, 2013

Yes, example 19020 or 26785.

Although if you could have some kind of toggle to do X/Y as well, I may just have to make love to you.

Haha! Well, I'll make sure I don't do that then :p

In that case, this is probably how it's going to work: I'll have it set up so it can draw the grids with either piece of information, and then add buttons for the two grid types, having them displayed as a dropdown button, kinda like this:

That way, you can turn each grid on/off, and select the type of info you want shown.

In addition, I'll add a coordinate display for each grid type on the bottom bar, that will show the respective coords under the mouse pointer.

Nice, that's amazing. Keep up the great work!

So far I can get the hex in game and in the mapper but I never figured out how to get XY coords, and even getting the hex is a pain in the ass. You rock

To be honest - it took me a ton of time to get the hex locations down - because they're done kinda weird. I mean, this is the loop for placing the hexes (from the JavaScript based Illustrator script I'm using to draw the grids):

Code:

for(var i=0;i< 40000;i++)
            {
            	var x = 200 - (i%200);
            	var y = i / 200;
            	var mod = 0;
            	if(x % 2 == 0)
            	{
            		mod=1;
            	}
            	
            	var xpos= (x * 24) + ((mod) * 8) + (y * 16) + 41
            	var ypos= ((200 - x) * 6) + ((mod) * 6) + (y * 12) - 9
}

i would be the "flat" hex number, x & y are the coords, and xpos and ypos are the upper left corner of the rectangle that would contain the hex itself. Definitely brain frying :p

Will there be an option for the tile numbers / locations as well?

Sduibek · Jan 2, 2014

@Digital_Utopia would it help to send you some scripts from Fallout that use hex numbers and XY coordinates? Might help get your brain around it more.

Right click on the box for each file, click Download. Took me a second to figure it out, heh.

Yes, I'll do both grids that way (both hex and tile).

Maybe then it would've helped - but I got it, and it's at least as accurate as the map editor I was using. It was just a pain :p

Right now I'm just working on finding the best way to draw the hex grid without throwing performance down the drain. lol

heh. That rhymed.

It's saying it can't find .NET 4.0 even though I have it installed. I've run a bunch of reinstall/repair stuff on my .NET installations and it's still not working. Any ideas?

I was excited to try it :'(

EDIT: Same issue on my Windows XP virtual machine. I think something is wrong in your file. Also it crashes on the first run without the config file present. Screenshot:

Hmm. that's pretty weird.

I'm installing .NET 4.0 on my xp VM right now, and I'll check it out. It's a very strong possibility that it's on my end; but I'll get to the bottom of it.

At any rate, I added the config file to the rar file I linked above - I'll share more when I have more :/

Edit: Alright - I've seen both issues. The .NET Framework error, seems to be due to the startup section of the config file. So it's not really .NET related. I'm going to see what on earth is so different between the config file on Windows 8.1, and other versions. Just out of curiosity, which version of Windows did you first try this on?

The second issue does look like it's related to the first - but maybe the other way around. It does crash if you remove the config file - but it will do the same thing if you just remove the startup line. So, I'm going to hazard a guess that whatever is making it complain about .NET, is what's also causing the crash if someone just skips over that check.

At any rate - I'll keep digging

I am having the same issue as the above quoted person. I am using Windows 7 Home x64. Hopefully you can figure this one out soon! Thanks for the effort!

Not working! The same as at Sduibek.
My OS WinХp(sp3) x32. Net 4.0 update to last.
