Ah, thanks. I'm going to try to implement that.

Which one do you think is more effective, the text caching or the imagesize caching?

bufSize caching will yield the greatest improvement in overall extraction times. The text caching is better for overall accuracy with changed data, but it isn't entirely required.

On a completely unrelated note...

Fiel, do you still have that ManualPatch.base file that you included with your .zip? Texel's Maplext doesn't seem to include it and you removed yours from Rapidshare.

Could you reupload it here on Xentax as an attachment please? Thanks.

I didn't delete it. Check the top post on the 27th page.

Running into some bad glitches now with the 'Updated/' portion of the engine.

It detected Hangul characters in the Map//Obj/HalloweenGL portion of the code. >_<

That's good compared to the language I'm working with... 10 hours on Map.wz. >.>

By the way, why do you upload your updates to RapidShare? Why not upload them as an attachment here?

For some reason, this website no longer accepts files with extensions of .py. I tried uploading it myself and it didn't work. So... Rapidshare is my temporary option.

Also, our computer setup might be different. I have an Athlon 64 4400+ @ 2.6 GHz and 2GB of RAM. That could affect performance, ya know?

Ah, mine is 1.66 GHz and 2GB RAM. That should explain things.

On an unrelated note... My attempts at a map renderer are going spectacularly, except for some z-ordering. :P

Excellent. :)

You do know that the z-order for everything is in Base//zmap, right? It should be easy to get things in order from that.

I don't see any values there related to maps, just the z-ordering on characters.
