As the work being done on AutoREALM is now all targeted at the wxWidgets port, the Delphi code base will no longer be developed. AutoREALM 2.1 will probably be...
Hi all, It's been a long time since I was using Autorealm (well, at least a year) and I've been working on a world map... however I just tried to export my...
... At this time, no. If somebody would like to contribute a patch, I'll glady package/post it, but, since my French amounts to "Je non parlez pas francais",...
Turns out that I somehow had put SOME sort of object way off to the side of my map; I set my view to Show All Objects, selected a big supposedly blank area and...
I have to start co,pletly over on my map. My computer crashed and I had to restore everything. I have all my files backed up but my map was corrupted and I...

Heya folks. As the subject line says, I'm doing a very quick survey, which has only one question: For the port of AutoRealm to wxWidgets, would you be upset if...
... For me the question isn't quite clear: What kind of formats will be then removed? The binary equivalent of the XML or something else? Can the XML-file...
... i.e. it will not support the AuR format and only the AurX format. I could ofcourse have both the versions installed to convert my maps before I migrate,...
... You're right, I should have been more clear. Let me try again: AutoRealm has a few "native" formats. These have the extenions .AuR, .AuRX, .AuS, and .AuSX....
One way to get a good answer would be to ask "who is still using AutoREALM 1.21 or earlier?" I personally don't mind, but it will be a little bit of a bummer...
... Good question, and one I should have answered: The benefits are simple: The oldest maps were made using the binary format. This provides the ability to...
... The idea of a standalone converter is one I think I could live with. Though I'm still going to have issues with (for instance) Mac OSX, until somebody can...
From: "Michael J. Pedersen" <pedermj@...> ... My only comment is that it looks like you're removing the only generic vector format, although I'm not...
... The other formats are there simply because they're so easy to allow (it won't even be 100 extra lines of code to add in a slew of formats). You're right...
In a message dated 2/7/05 2:11:05 PM Eastern Standard Time, ... Would the user lose the ability to re-edit a given map if you eliminate the binary formats? ...
... <explanation elided> Gut reaction: do not load or save binary. Have a standalone helper app. that converts forward (binary -> XML), but not back. Robert...
How about fixing the bugs before tweaking it ... __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam? Yahoo! Mail has the best...
... I must weigh in heavily on the side of *not* removing binary I/O. I know it's a pain in the ass. I wouldn't require supporting binary *output*, but I...
