Ok so my question is simple: How does one make a map of a server, and I don't mean like the in game maps, but like the Cartograph program. I've tried and it never works? Is there a specific program which works for server maps?
or BananaMapRender http://forums.bukkit.org/threads/mi...lightweight-dynmap-alternative-860-871.19775/
Those all seem terribly complicated, is there anything that just makes a png map like cartograph? I don't want to be adding to my server's computer usage.
BananaImageToMap creates a series of png images which tile (client-side I might add) in a scrollable "slippy map" program called leaflet. You can check out a demo of how the finished product looks here - http://tetragaming.com/codename_B/dev/NoiseTest/ it's all plain and simple html, you won't even know its running apart from when it is generating map chunks.
