JUICE (Map Utility)
From AlephWiki
JUICE (JUICE Understands Interesting Chunk Extras) is a Java-based utility designed to manipulate Marathon 2/Infinity map files. It has a number of standard functions, plus a number of unique functions added to support new features in Aleph One. JUICE is currently at version 1.1.

Standard Features
It allows for mass-editing of mission/level settings, item/monster parameters, object placement, and polygon types, all of which exist in some form in older, more functional editors.
Special Features
JUICE has added some new features, such as the ability to use scripts to replace textures (allowing for more than one texture set per map, a feature now supported in Aleph One) and add level comments (useful only within JUICE for now).
Future Additions
Other new features are being developed in parallel with Aleph One functionality, such as embedded shapes patches, so that one may create a map file with replacement shapes that will be transmitted over networks, allowing for small changes such as adding new textures.
