JUICE (Map Utility)

From Aleph One Wiki

Jump to: navigation, search

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.

Contents

[edit] 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.

[edit] 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).

[edit] 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.
