Ideas for new utilities?

I was thinking that here should be the suggestions for utilities that people need(the ones which have something to do with JAs)
I have two ideas:

1. It would be good to have a software that packs maps to a .slf
file.
2. Another nice thing would be to have a software, that creates locks(and maybe even keys) to the maps.

It would be great that someone then, could maybe take one of the suggestions as a project and we all would have those JA utility programs we need.

P.S. I'm sorry that I haven't put this on german, but deutsche isn't one of my best languages.

Hello,

1. why, you can put the new files in a correct name folder in the DATA folder

2. you can use the Beta Editor for that ones

MFG.......

What about a new weapon editor?

If it's really possible to add guns to JA2 (see JA2.exe research tread) we could need a upgrade for the weapon editor.

I think the old editor won't work with a modified exe-file.

Howdy Rowdies!

No weapon editor will work with an edited exe, because the whole offsets change extremely. Also the exe get's bigger and so on. I allready opened a thread about adding new items. I described some problems but noone could or wanted to help me. But imho a new weapon editor isn't necessary. If I handle it to add new weapons, new ammos, new sounds... in the source, I'll write a detailed tutorial about that. But first I have to solve the problems by my self.
