Hi all , Henry00 here. I am working on this amazing tool , that will later go public! Its called the "SGU tool"
With this tool it is possible to even see yourself on a radar ( Including monsters)! Also it is possible to make huge maps with Player trackers for making paths of where you walk and stuff , it is also possible to easely draw a map in a program of your choise!
Also there now are huge multiplayer functions , I was kinda stuck on how to create a multiplayer radar , but this is how I gonna do it:
Imagine there are 5 players playing with the SGU tool.
My first idea was , to upload their X and Y values to a file on the FTP , but if somebody uploaded the file half , and the other uploads at the same time , and again the next player downloads it , you get a superb corrupted file!
So this is the thing I fought of:
Again 5 or more players are playing , though this time their X and Y pos. Values are saved on the Server PC! At the meantime a server program of the SGU tool will be running , that will upload this combined file to the Stargate FTP , then the clients that use the radar will download the file ( according to their internet speed that you set ) and can see the players walk!
Also , chats will be included , also its possible to submit maps already to this website , and you can see them at photo album SGU Tool!
PS: I need debuggers! I can test this alone , but to be sure I need someone that can help me!
Here are some pictures of the testing already :

Ok! Status report:
I created a class in Unreal , that takes a snap of every pawn that is moving on the map! Like this:
Monster1X=*Some value*
Monster1Y=*Some value*
Monster1Name=Autoplay.*Some name like bird1*
If we filter this , it is possible to see every actor on the radar! though the file , If a bit fuller , is huge like 5mb
So for multiplayer we only show the players , I hope this is ok?
Also , the radar is only a part of the tool!! there will be even more Super cool stuff!
Like the chat , (Beta scratchbox) , Map sharing , and much more 
As soon as Im home , I will finish the Pawn locator!
Cant wait....though even this is getting awesome , I need to make a PlayerPawn locator for multiplayer , dunno how to do this yet , but ill find out! k cya soon!!!

About the top view pictures , it is possible , but the radar is only as exact as the map....I mean , even if you center the map and stuff , the radar will always be a bit different , it was hard filtering: -4523.34334235
Into: -3.8
etc , so it isnt to exact yet - future updates maybe 
So all in 1: It may be hard making the photos , but we got a master called Pyronious who can do this

Thats not funny
I said that if you make a room in the center of the space you have for a map , you might be walking in the left upper corner on the radar

anyway is this showen in the HUD? or how? like the player can use it as a personal radar in his HUD ?
can be handy to make named Objectives you need to take out and gif them difr collor for like : YEllo=Priority Target & Green like=Secondary Target.
So we can make cannon post and other 3dobjects that need to be blowed up by C4 and such .. like parts of a ship to take out so it blows.. and you acomplishe a game mission by that so you can continue to the next chaptar or part in a map that gifs u acces .. like a rock slide makes the way clear + teleporter.. (wel anyway just an idea)(nextmap loads)..(like a keymover/like doors that need to be unlocked or destroyed to activate the doorway or what ever action ...
so it should be very inproved if u could make useage out of it and in clude it into the Huf..
And i taught about this coz you told me once's u also needed to do the Barrels and stuf (Decorations) so eh.. i taught about making an 3D object and gif it a special name so you whould reconize it that its a objectif .. but with your way/theorie it is posible to make this happened?
i say yes
with this we can inproof our idea what whe talked about .. if you remember you made the best radar ever seein lol
maby u also can make it like an 3d Artifact or a 3Dstuf u need to grap to get radar acivated
like if u player redalert or such strategie game.. first you got scroud/shout.. the black stuf ... (afther u buy radar rofl) and if not there is an other image onfront of the radar.. and when u buy radar .. the hud screenshanges the image tot the radar that is active.. we could make the place of the radar beein showed up... like the ancient letter A (alpha) (like the stargatelogo or to input the modlogo) and if the player picks up the radar stuf item .. it changes to activeradar
and with some combined in proofments with the Translator .making it like functioning to Execute Missions with Objectives and get loaded with the location and life or death knowlege from the radar .. that it knows when its gone or stil standing.. or if its a person that he is dead or alive... and if its gone it wil show in the Translator like : Mission+ Objective:1 eliminate all hostile enemy's
Primary Objective estroy enemy Defensif material (like staffcannon and stuf) (like a bonus kill)
and when its destroyed or killed... like (Acomplished) with a line true the text.. and when on all acomplished u get acces to next level or whatever action needed So if this object is killed or destroyed it also wil like an pawn diseapr from the radar..
so thats my idea..

hmm....HMM...so your saying I should make this radar inside Unreal???????
That makes everything so hard!
Its inside a external program , ( and the barrels are a Enter the matrix project ) My last update has 1 actor , that Saves every actor in the level to a INI ( X , Y and NAME ) , then a server converts X and Y + Name to a "Readable" INI , Uploads it etc , ( Also monsters are viewable in multi now )
THough...It needs HUGE scripting work... hm , It is possible , If you really want to , to make it inside Unreal 2...Ill see how good it gets , Ill work inside Unreal now , will try makes it a bit easyer...hm , you will hear from me soon!
