not-so-unrelated: There's another mapper for Minetest (rewritten from scratch) — https://github.com/Nemo08/hxmtmapper

Thanks xyz for the hxmtmapper link.

I've installed haxe and neko (Ubuntu repositories) and tried running "compile' (./compile in the hxmtmapper-master directory). It stops to tell me that I have to run haxelib setup first.

Ok, when I run "haxelib setup" it asks me for the path to the haxelib repository with write access.

Now I'm stuck because I don't know where this repository is (I've never dealt with Haxe before this).

What is your recommedation for getting this to work, xyz?

Thanks!

Made a little progress but still haven't been able to compile the hxmtmapper.

After running



in the hxmtmapper-master folder, I get this error message:



Any ideas what to do next?

After running

Your phone or window isn't wide enough to display the code box. If it's a phone, try rotating it to landscape mode.

Code: Select all

./compile.sh

in the hxmtmapper-master folder, I get this error message:

~/haxe_mtmapper/nme/3,4,3/neash/Loader.hx:9: characters 0-22 : Class not found : sys.io.Process

Any ideas what to do next?

Try again with nme 3.4.4

Ok, some more progress made but still having errors.

Downloaded NME (with Haxe included) from: http://www.haxenme.org/download/

Extracted and installed the NME/Haxe bundle:



Next I ran:



Then xyz's:



Everything seemed to be installed at this point so I tried to run hxmtmapper with the example for creating a jpg file (with file path altered to match my minetest world map.sqlite location)



This is where the next stumbling block occurs. This error message pops up in the terminal and the process stops:



I've checked through Synaptic to make sure SQLite3 is installed... it is.

Now what should I try?

Thanks!

Try `haxelib install sqlite`

Thanks for your patience xyz.

I did run



(mentioned towards the upper-part of my last post) and still that sqlite error popped up. I also ran the other two examples that are provided in the "Readme.md" file (with file path changes to my worlds' map, of course).

ATTENTION FORUM ADMINS
Perhaps this portion of the thread should be moved to its own topic. Origianlly this was to discuss Mireq's minetestmapper rewritten in c++ but xyz and I have added several posts now that are detailing a different program. Besides, I think xyz's work deserves its own thread. Peaking into the html folder, xyz's minetestmapper appears to, possibly, function like Google Maps.

Thanks. :)

Moved. Actually, it's not mine but Nemo08's work (mostly).

Try to copy sqlite3.ndll to folder where is your compiled Hxmtmapper

Nemo08 wrote:Try to copy sqlite3.ndll to folder where is your compiled Hxmtmapper

Ok, found and copied the sqlite3.ndll to the cpp folder where Hxmtmapper (executable) has been compiled.

Ran the command in the terminal, in the "cpp" directory where the Hxmtmapper executable is.

Instantly after hitting the "enter" button, a new, blank line came up in the terminal just as if the command had been completed, however there is no jpg file nor was there any error message.

Here is the directory tree under the "hxmtmapper-master" folder:

/hxmtmapper-master/
|_ /hxmtmapper-master/cpp/ (copied sqlite3.ndll below to this folder so it exists in both places)
|_ /hxmtmapper-master/html/
|_ /hxmtmapper-master/mods/
|_ /hxmtmapper-master/src/
|_ /hxmtmapper-master/temporary/
/hxmtmapper-master/colormapping.txt
/hxmtmapper-master/compile-debug.sh
/hxmtmapper-master/compile-win.bat
/hxmtmapper-master/compile.sh
/hxmtmapper-master/READMD.md
/hxmtmapper-master/sqlite3.ndll (copied this to cpp folder above so it exists in both places)

I'm running Ubuntu 12.04 if that provides any useful information.

What's the next step?

@LazyJ, sorry, i forgot, "colormapping.txt" file must be in folder with hxmtmapper executible :(
P.S. clone mapper from git, i merge last dev branch
P.P.S also, i dont know, whether the mapper to work with the latest base format and mapper dont generete single image from large bases.

How can i compile this on windows xp?
