# Azone
* Azone is a binary responsible for generating our .map files by reading geometry files, for more information on these see [[Maps Introduction]]
* Azone will look within the current directory for each zone_name you pass it and attempt to open the files with one of three loaders in the following order:
* EQG Standard
* EQG Terrain (v4)
* S3D
**Usage**
```
./azone nektulos tutorialb qeytoqrg
```
This will load and output the following files
* nektulos.eqg -> nektulos.map
* tutorialb.eqg -> tutorialb.map
* qeytoqrg.s3d -> qeytoqrg.map
# Awater
* Awater reads in a geometry file and outputs a water map file that can be loaded by the EQEmu server software and is then used for area detection purposes.
* Water maps are a bit of a misnomer as they handle more than water volume data but rather all marked area volumes
**Usage**
```
./awater nektulos tutorialb qeytoqrg
```
This will load and output the following files
* nektulos.eqg -> nektulos.wtr
* tutorialb.eqg -> tutorialb.wtr
* qeytoqrg.s3d -> qeytoqrg.wtr
Each of these **.wtr** files may then be copied to the server's maps directory to be used by the server.
# PFS
PFS is a command line utility for manipulating pfs (S3D/EQG) files. It works similarly to S3DSpy but from a command line.
The usage is modeled loosely after 7-Zip's command line utility for familiarity:
```
pfs [<switches>...] <command> <command args>... <archive_name> [<file_names>...]
<Switches>
-i=dir: Set input directory
-o=dir: Set output directory
<Commands>
a: Add files to archive
d: Delete files from the archive
e: Extract files from the archive
l: List contents of the archive
<Command Args>
arg1: Only search for files with this extension, may use * as a wildcard meaning all extensions
u: Update files of the archive
```
# Map View
Map View is a utility that will attempt to load map and **.wtr** files and then render them to a 3D view
**Usage**
```
./map_view nektulos
```
This will attempt to load **nektulos.map** and **nektulos.wtr**
### Controls
You may use the mouse and WSAD for movement.
Holding shift will increase the speed you move within the world drastically.
* N toggles rendering of non-collidable geometry.
* C toggles rendering of collidable geometry.
* V toggles rendering of area volumes.
### Troubleshooting
If you're having trouble with getting a zone to render here are some things to check:
* Your graphics card and drivers support OpenGL 3.3 or 3.0 (you need to specify within CMake for a special 3.0 build)
* The program can see the shaders/ directory and has the shaders files within it.
* The program can see the map and wtr files you are attempting to load.
