Anyone have any experience using Overviewer Map tool with Ftb servers?

[Jeff Fisher]

Hey there I'm trying to use the Minecraft Overviewer to render a map for my servers overworld.

The website for the program is: http://docs.overviewer.org/en/latest/

I have downloaded a backup of my server and put it on my PC and I'm trying to use this tool to render out a map.

It says to use the windows CMD prompt to use it which I can do but Every time I try to do this it says that it can't find the Textures to do the render. I don't understand the documentation about the Texture path completely.

I added the Texture path option to the Config file and it points to the Soartex texture pack but it doesn't seem to recognize that and keeps telling me it can't find the grass top.png or something.

Does anyone know how to get this to work?

I know I could use dynamap but If I can get this to work its more what I'm looking for since Dynamap crushes my server and I don't need real time rendering I juist want a map of my world maybe every month or so thats all.

Thanks

It might sound strange, but "grass top.png" sounds like how textures are used from 1.5 and onward.

Your options would be either to take a 1.4.7 version, if any exist, or to tale DynMap, and configure it not to render that often.
There is an option to say every X seconds, so you could expand that to a month: 60*60*24*30 = 2592000 .
