I'm in an impish mood at the moment so i'm not saying much about this and i'm just going to let you stew and speculate for a while. But rest assured the methods and tools will be release to you all very shortly!
This software takes a background image (such as a map) and lets animates a travel route on top of it, saving the animation as a series of .BMP stills.
WARNING! Please read the readme1.0.txt file very carefully. This should be considered an alpha release. It probably has tons of bugs and crashes it in. Oh well, if i may say so myself, it's not too bad for only one day of work on it.
