Are there any tools or commands to force the server to generate a region of the map?
Also, has anyone started converting the "Minecraft Overviewer" to read the new format of the chunk files?
Pat
I believe your first thing is a feature of the ChunkWorx plugin.
I beleive MC Overviewer already supports new format maps, and you can use that for maps.
I just tried MC Overviewer and it failed to render. I'll download the latest version and try again.
BTW, I'm using default storage ... not anvil.
Default storage for MCServer is anvil AFAIK. Do you mean that you've changed it so it's not anvil?
If you have "Default" or "Anvil" for storage then it uses "Anvil". If you put in "Forgetfull" it doesn't save anything, and I think the "Fast" scheme was removed some time ago, so he's probably using the Anvil format.
The server currently only has two storage schemas - Anvil and Forgetful. If you don't set one explicitly, set Default or an unknown schema, Anvil will be used.
There is a slight possibility that our Anvil files are incompatible with some tools. I've run into some problems (files not aligned to 4KiB) when using Minutor with MCS worlds; but I think I've fixed those in the meantime. Is that MC Overviewer open-source? Can it be debugged to find the problem?

It's written in python and c, here's the link to the source code

Looks like I'm using anvil. I will debug.
I've tried stepping through the python code, but ran out of time, haven't found the problem yet.
The error is 'foo' was requested for render, but no chunks found. Where 'foo' is a any one (all) of the files in the region folder of the world.
