OVERVIEW: Quake 2 Map Info 5 Months ago  
This command line utility will parse a Quake 2 map file to report how many entities and textures are being used. Useful for spotting extra items to improve gameplay balance and/or reducing extra textures to increase map speed. Most map editors do not provide a detailed breakdown of what is inside a map.



Map Info should be compatible with any Quake 2 (ID Tech 2) game engine if the map file format has not be altered.

If a game has a different map format, you can modify the source code to reflect the new format. If you make such a modification, please email me the modification and a map file to test against.

If you want me to make the modification, please email the name of the game and a map file to test against. An ideal map file would be the example map provided by the game (e.g., base1.map for Quake 2). I will implement an option switch for that map format and release a new version of Map Info.
