Map Description Generator [1.2]

「Map Description Generator」

Required
Java - Download

What's it for?

The user gives the tool the info needed for a good description: Map Title, Author, Short Gameplay Description, list of features, screenshots, credits and changelog
... And the tool takes that and adds fancy BBcode to it. This is a better alternative to -Kobas-'s Map Description Templates which needed to be manually edited by users.

Features

• Easy to use
• Different Styles
• No BBcode editing (skills) required

How to use

Extract the downloaded .zip, open up the folder MapDescription->dist->MapDescription.jar
• Enter all the information you want. (Title, Author, Gameplay Description and Credits are required)
• To add screenshots, upload them first online, then insert their image URL into the different fields and tick both the checkbox next to Screenshots and the one next to the field which contains a URL
Open File allows you to select a text file and that file's content will be inserted into the below field
• Finally, press Generate and the code has been copied to your clipboard. All you have to do now is ctrl+V it in the map thread you want it to be in

Wow...nice work. I definitely going to use this when I decide to post my next map.

Edit: Although, it would be nice if you could add different choices of Themes where you can choose from. Maybe you can add Kobas's Templates to these tools so it will have a variety to choose from.

Damn people and their magical coding powers. Very damn useful, I'd definitely use it. Code Wizards I lay my curse upon thee! Now you are forced to fish in my vessels of fishing! Mwahaha!
