I am not sure where to post this, so if this is in the wrong spot please move it.

I've got a question for you guys. Would you find it helpful if I released a program that would allow you to place DBC/DBP primatives down using the keyboard? In the editor you can scale and rotate the primatives, and when you save it exports the code needed to create what you made in the editor into a neat little Text file. Would this help anybody? Just asking.

Ummm...

Well, not me personaly, but I think maybe new programmers might need help making their first levels and stuff, so yah, go for it.

That last about the text file is brilliant.

That sounds like an excellent idea! I often get annoyed by placing any object really. If you could make it to where you can load and place objects as well that would be very useful. I am using Matedit_1.6 for my map making for an FPS and I need object placement. I dislike spending loarge amounts of time trying to place my objects by coding it and testing out where the objects are. Don't get me wrong, I am not asking if you will do this, I am simply making a suggestion to the original idea. This would help out all of us I think.

The program is only as good as the programmer...

Thanks everybody!
Alright cool. I'll prepare the program for release. Maybe I'll add loading and placng objects. I may need to make the 2 programs separate though... The current one I have isn't designed for anything else.

EDIT: Having some issues...
