Magtheridon96: Well done Kellypie, this is a very useful tool!
I commend your effort.

Spoiler

wat :v

edit
Promoted to Highly Recommended for reducing file size C:

 

[Vengeancekael]

Welp, that preview image's quality has gone really down :V

 

[solomon409]

I've tried this already, and i gotta say i love it. Not only does it get rid of the hassle of manuelly editing the BBcode template (and sometimes making a mistake that destroys the whole thing >.<), but now even newbs can have pretty map descriptions

Also, this tool works on my Windows 7 64 bit PC

 

[Magtheridon96]

Kael, you genius, +4, 5/5.

edit
2.55MB? ._.
That's awfully large for a text generating program

 

[Vengeancekael]

Pretty much every java app has that size as far as I know.

 

[David]

How cool,rep 5/5
EDIT:Happy troll's day kael

 

[Cihparg]

Missing config for text display & no highlighting on any text.

 

[torques]

Useful.

 

[David]

If I was a mod,I would reject this with a 6/5 3

 

[ScourgeWarchief]

It's a great tool, very useful.

 

[D.O.G.]

Awesome useful tool for map developers.
However, some tips:
1) Screenshot and features count shouldn't be fixed (now you cannot add more than 8)
2) Changelog also should form for each version of map not one form for all versions

Anyway, 5/5, it is promising project. Good luck with it!

 

[Vengeancekael]

Updated it:
Its filesize has been reduced to 300kb from 3mb.

 

[-Kobas-]

This is a better alternative to -Kobas-'s Map Description Templates which needed to be manually edited by users.

 

[nafre]

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.

hi vengeancekael, can i ask some question ?
where is the application ?
i dont see anything
don't have "Extract All" button in windows 7.

 

[Adiktuz]

Download the zip file, extract, then go to the extracted folder, then go to dist folder

 

[759tricker]

Download the zip file, extract, then go to the extracted folder, then go to dist folder

This Are the files inside the dist folder,
what should i do next ?

 

[Adiktuz]

It's a JAR file... you should install Java first (as said at the top part of the thread), so that you can open that MapDescription file
