Why did anybody code a new frontend for old Q3 based engine compiler?
Hmm.., cause i'm still a small active part of german JK-mapping community 
Till today i used q3map2build to compile my maps, but i dreamed about a fronted,
which can check the logfile "live", during the compilation.
But the problem was, i couldn't write a working Log-Listener.
I asked DLB for providing me the q3map2build-quellcode, but received no answer 
many days after, i did it finally...
... an working log-listener
It was the beginning of q3map2GUI.
Q3map2GUI is simple like q3map2build, but powerfull like q3map2toolz 
The most different featuers of q3map2GUI are:
- "live" Log - checking for errors ans warnings (You can see them at one click)
- you can compile and play maps in subfolders! (base/maps/ ...."
- you can specify SP and MP game executables
- this app do not add any registry keys, not one
BSPC is not supported at this time.
