Default 3rd party Apps wishlist

OK I maybe should have followed my own advice and used the "search" link under the "New Topic" button before hitting New-Topic but I dont thin there is a thread already where this fits.

Anyway the DomMap project is going well. There is a working Version of the random map generator for Dom2 both for Linux and for Windows.
[insert URL here later]

The BLUR project for improving the DomMap generated maps might not be a problem depending on how some tests of upgrading the DomMap goes.

The GIMP script project for generating maps progressing but not as quickly as DomMap

The game-save app. has been worked on by various people. We have a batchfile/icon Version, a java Version, and a VB Version? Am I right? All for Windows but then the Linux people havent voiced a need.[need URL]

There is a desire for a god-save app

There is an app to make hosting PBEM games in windows easier[need URL]

There was talk of some work on a front-end app to set/save game settings then call dominions to create a game avoiding the long walk thru the menu to create a game when you always choose the same opponents and settings.

There is a working copy of a web-site front-end supporting tcpip games

there is desire for a CGI allowing the uploading of a 2h file which would facilitate making a web front-end for PBEM games

There is a the basic to EXE desires for some of the random game generators such as I do with Poke_in_the_Eye. I have not found a good (free) compiler for my code though some


There is a big desire for an app that can do half a DomMap job, read in a TGA that was manually created and write the #neighbor and #terrain guesses to a .map file.

There is also a desire for a an app that can read god files and print out the variables. Maybe even allow editing them.

there is a desire to ceate a sheet of sprite images from the game

There is a desire to read out the scoreboard information to a text file

there is a desire to read out the provinces owned-by to a file

Did I miss anything?
