Many thanks for the infos, i see what i can do!

Sounds great , thanks.

Bump.

Update available.

Request:

Also add ShootMania titles to it. Now its a bit hard to make it work for example Elite.

Uhm , will there also be a linux version of this piece of art ?

Nope. But feel free to code one

someone can create same on html generator ?

Can someone fix this Tool to fit for actual state of MP ?
Or are there new/better ways to create a matchsettings file for over 200 Maps xD ??
I tried it but it creates some broken entrys, with that amount of maps i dont want to check check every single line ....

And the text formatting seems to be also broken.

You can generate an initial config file here: https://www.maniaplanet.com/account/ded ... ers/helper

Then you only really have to tweak the settings and add the maps. If you're on linux, you can do something like this in your maps folder:
Or, recursively:

Hi BestNoob,

It surely does correct XML conversion for the data, though, it does it "the old way", which doesn't use <![CDATA[ ]]> tags inside map-tags... As you noticed, XML document cannot contain certain glyphs, such as &, which by default converts to XML equivalent "&amp;". I think CDATA wasn't supported before by ManiaPlanet, and it surely needs a test if it supports it by now... If i remember right, the formatting uses linux end lines "\n" instead of windows "\r\n". But yeah, the tool should be updated, I built it for maniaplanet 3 and indeed a lot of updates and changes has occurred since then.

Best tool ever created for MP.

I still use it. ( some parts )
Just use it to add maps to my local server, works like a charm.
