trk wall program for GPL converted tracks

[mistycreek]

I have a preliminary version of a program I've been working on to help fix trk files converted from GPL. At the moment, it only reads trk files after they've been decompiled using N3def program, the limits of which make my program rather useless. The final version of trkwall will use trkdec1r so it can handle tracks with more than 10 surfaces and elevation lines. The functionality of my program allows the deletion of elevation lines and the complete editing of surfaces and walls.

Anyway, this version should be stable and working, so I figured you guys could try it out, maybe get some use out of it, and come up with any ideas on how to make it better.

I have used a bit around a few converted tracks and tracks where I have been working in. Looking at the N3def, is it an option to base it on GPLdef instead? That tool is based on GPL trk files, so might be better suited. Just a thought.

Tool itself works straightforward, at this moment the hardest part (which is an issue whether using GPLdef, N3def and trackdec or anything non-graphical) is figuring out which part to delete.

GPLdef could be done, been a while since I went poking around in that tool. That makes the program more of a GPL tool than an N3/icr2 tool and would still require a second program to function. My desire for trkdec was to build that program into this one so that only 1 program was needed to open a trk file. To my knowledge, I would have the full functionality of the program with trkdec as well.

I agree something graphical would be ideal, but I don't have the programming nohow to pull that off right now. Besides, get the values cut down to something that works in N3/icr2 and sandbox should be able to go from there, hopefully.

Maybe a printout of the various data sge and sfe uses would be helpful, so that someone could start with all the gpl data and build a track from scratch with that? I'd have to dig around and try to finish off understanding the banking algorythms from decompiled tracks.
