Soldat Map Loader
Original idea created by Karaffka. Code by me.
SML is a program to automatic maps loading into Soldat's folder. You just need to open it and enter an URL or file address: program will copy and unpack file, copy correct files into Soldat's catalog and then remove all temporary rubbish. Archivum can have ZIP or RAR format and don't have to have correct catalogues structure, it just needs folder 'scenery-gfx' (for sceneries) and 'textures' (for textures). .PMS files are copying from everywhere. Program won't copy files with extension other to .BMP, .JPG, .PNG and .PMS. In program has been built also a small pseudoprotocol sml://, for example sml://rainrider.byethost5.com/maps/inf_shrehu.rar will automatically process the map file. While copying, if file exists, user will be asked that he want to replace file.

Soldat Map Packer
SMP is a program for packing maps into .ZIP file. You just need to type name of .PMS file in program or select in Window's context menu 'Compress option' (eventually. drag & drop file on SMP's icon) program will automatically open map, read all used files (.PMS, textures and sceneries) and pack it into single .ZIP file. Default program includes to archivum (\maps\ folder) readme file which contains info about map (count of polygons with count of selective types, jet amount, background colors, weather etc).

Note: Programs are using some command-line programs, so don't worry about appearing black windows while (un)packing archivums. Nothing wrong.
