How do you make a .XUM Map Format?

I am unaware of what the .XUM map format is.

I opened it with the Notepad, and it appears to just be a text file you created.

Is it really just a text file, that you manually typed the appropriate numbers into, or is there another program I can use to make maps myself?

WyvernX previously wrote:
"Create a map called user.mapname.xum ie, user.emain.xum. Place your map additions in there. It will overlay the maps."

However, I just don't know how to create the map, to overlay it.

Thanks!

No, there is not a program anymore. The functionality used to be built into the plugin, but it was getting people banned a while back, so I removed it.

I used to include the functionality within the DU map plugin, but it was getting people banned because mythic was watching people walk around the borders, buildings, etc and hitting a key that was putting points on the map.

I will not release anyting like that until I can be sure that it will not get people banned.
